I am new programmer so bear with me as I try to explain what I want to do. My wife owns a small pharmacy that currently uses their distributors site as their ecommerce site. I want to be able to create an 'extension' that details the services they offer, but be able to <b>seamlessly</b> access the distributors site to access over the counter items. What is the best method to do this. Essentially I want to access another site and remove their graphics while adding in my own. Thanks in advance.<img src=../images/dwzone/forum/icon_smile.gif border=0 align=middle>

After reading my post i feel i should probably clarify again. i'm not wanting to create an extension as in a UD or DW extension. The wholesaler we deal with has a generic ecommerce site that we have licensed to use, I merely want to be able to incorporate their over the counter site into our more customized site that will contain information on specific programs etc. thanks

The only feasible way of doing what you speak of, is by using frames.
Have your graphics, then just load the other webpage in the frame... that will keep people in your site, while giving them their content.

set rs = conn.execute("SELECT answer FROM brain WHERE question = "& forumPost &"

erm...loading into a frame is an idea...personally i wouldnt use it but...
(hate frames, chunky and looks unprofessional)
what you could do, was have your more customised site actually in a subroot of thier generic store...
that way you could access thier database and pull what info you want from it into your own pages...
im a little unclear on your "over the counter site" description, but i think that my solution is another way to go...
shop around though, you might find something that suits your needs better
