Hello,

I have an idea for a new program. I can do the most things but there are a few things I can't do.
I want to make a program were people can upload there files with discription, title and price.
And then other people can download or buy (with paypal) the file. It's like an app store. You can upload your file
and others can download it.

Thanks

If you can help me you get credits in the program (Not codenstuff credits, the other credits.)

i know that #CodenStuff has a app 'product key manager' (app no source)
Apps.php?mode=view&sid=1
its a great app :) and easy to work with.
that contain some data you need
but no uploading part.

Well you could use .html pages to display each product. When the user submits a program, it creates a new document where the specified information is filled out, with a link to the submitted app.

I meant that I could not do much with it just because I don't know how it works and I should know how it works.

It would be easier with one php page which shows each app from database..

You can use HttpWebRequest to POST data to an PHP site. Then validate it and if you want to let the user submit it directly to the database then just create a new row in the table using INSERT in MySQL. Lastly you would need to FETCH ARRAY to retrieve all the data from the MySQL table.
Then in VB.NET you can use some sort of split function to separate the 'products'.

If you need more help or need a detailed tutorial then feel free to contact me via PM.

I can probably help you if you have any problems :) I have working on my own AppStore since December (and its working), but I haven't released it because I need a computer with 24/7 uptime and an open port :( Just ask ;)
