Hi. I've been given the job of developing my company's website. I haven't built a site in nearly 8 years and I'm completely out of the loop on what to use and why, so i'm looking for suggestions.
Here's what we need: the site will be a small to mid sized ecommerce site. it will need to accept payment for products and services, it will need to generate logins and passwords for those who wish to become paying members. it will have content that is available only to those paying members. There will be a limited amount of streaming media. And there should be a forum like this one for members.
I am tempted to just go out and purchase the latest generation of dreamweaver to build this with but i'm getting the impression from my research that there may be online development platforms available that will do a better job (I'm thinking asp.net). Is that true? Is dreamweaver yesterdays news? Any comments or suggestions would be helpful.
thanks
