Mallsurfer Shop (tm) 2.05e

What is it?

Mallsurfer Shop (tm) is a shopping cart generator.  
You give it the details for your shop and it 
will create a fully functional shopping cart 
which you can upload to your web site so 
people can order products online.  All the
JavaScript, forms, tables, and html code is
done for you.  

All you will do is put your items into the 
database and create the site with the "Create"
button.  When you are pleased with it, you 
can upload it with the "Upload" button.

Supports multi-language shops and templates.
