Hello all, Does anybody know a good open source bookshop/bookstore system written in php+mysql? Google and sourceforge search didn't yield good results. Any hint would be very much appreciated.

SAM'S published a PHP book some years ago that had just such an app in "demo" form, on CD, included. A big purple book. The app was basically a shopping cart system, but it was specifically for books. Might be a good way to learn something and a good framework for further customization. Given that it's a few years old, though, you'd want to definitely do some reading on security best procedures and changes since PHP 4.... As for the rest of the discussion, a bookshop could easily be most of the standard cart-type apps. Since they have only a few characteristics, it's much easier than, for example, retail clothing ;-) HTH, Kevin Kinsey
