Greetings Fellow Zenaphiles:

I've just purchased GK Hoek's ebook "e-Start Your Web Store with Zencart".

Excellent! A tremendous labor/time saver.

Following the clear and concise directions, I have installed v1.3.8 on my localhost WIN XP Pro using XAMPP Version 1.4.16etc. I am now in the design phase of configuration and aesthetics etc.

Very soon I will want take it "live" online. My hosting is Godaddy.com shared server with 25 DB available. Although Zen Cart is available as an pre-installed optional application install, of course I want to run my own reconfigured/tweaked version with all the design revisions, stylesheets etc. which will require a complete upload including prog and Mysql DB Zencart(95 tables) etc....

While I find the documentation detailed, thorough and comprehensive, there are some areas that are conspicuously unclear/lacking.

Chiefly, it does not discuss how to get the roadtested redesigned localhost version uploaded/configured to (shared) server, including the creation/copying/configuration of the localhost database etc.

I'm sure this is not uncommon problem and has been discussed/resolved(?). I've done a few cursory searches of the forum etc, and unfortunately have not found anything that is right on point...

Can anybody be so kind as to point me to tutorial(s)/posting(s) etc. that would walk me through the process of installing on Godaddy.com? I'm not an IT guy...a right(some would say hair) brained starving artist who's just trying to set up an e-com site to scratch out a meager living(this is a living?:) selling his prints of paintings:)

So..hey...thanks very much in advance.

Any and all help greatly appreciated--not to mention the benefits of a sizable deposit in the Bank of Karma:)

Cheers...and here's to Less Freight(stuff) in Oh-Eight
