site owner to place products on sale on the Home page of the website, and 'email a
friend' to allow site visitors to suggest a product to the friend; the page will
display a text area for allowing user to enter an email address and message.

The website administration system should be password protected and allow the web
site owner to manage the website's product categories and product sub-categories on
the site. A predefined template would be used from the website designing phase and

payments securely, this website solution should be secure, easy to manage and come
with an administration system to allow for the easy management of sales the website
