I would like to duplicate this store, how hard?

I have designed 1 othersite and i feel i did a great job. http://www.itzboosted.net/store

Now i'm trying to design a duplicate of this site, (the way it looks) of course it would be my customers products but the layout i would like to duplicate.
http://www.mcmaster.com/

How hard would it be to duplicate this site using Zen Cart? or can you tell me what they might of used to design that site?

They likely had that done for them. It uses frames which don't work with Zen Cart.

Re: I would like to duplicate this store, how hard?

If you're referring to the scrolling pane feature, that can be done with a basic CSS technique - no need for fancy javascript or iframes which will not work unless the user's computer is set to allow them.

Give the relevant container div (whatever it is) a stylesheet rule like```
#indexDefaultWrapper {height: 500px; overflow: auto;}

If the content of the div is taller than 500px, a scrollbar will appear on the right.

You will only get a bottom scrollbar if you have a word or image etc. that is wider than the normal element width. Ordinary sentences will wrap as usual.
