Hello, I recently was tasked to learn Corel Website Creator. I am running version X6. I am having trouble using the E-Commerce function. I have made a page for products. I have inserted a field using the E-Commerce tool. I have populated my catalog with products and content (pictures, descriptions, pricing, part numbers, etc.). Yet, when I click "done", nothing is filled into the E-Commerce field. It is just a white field with a green border around it. Some things that may be notable:
1. I am running Website Creator X6 on Windows 8.1
2. The small Corel load window that pops up sometimes when the program is making several changes seems to stop very quickly and doesn't appear to finish after clicking "Done" in the Catalog Properties window.
3. In reviewing the code, I can find the definition of the size and shape of the E-Commerce field that I had drawn and a call to run Corel's E-Commerce javascript (store.js), but there is no code for the catalog itself. All I can find in the code are notes left by Corel.
<!-- [BEGIN Catalog1] --> <!-- [END PRE-Catalog1] --> <!-- [BEGIN POST-Catalog1] -->
<!-- [END Catalog1] -->
If anyone has any information on this problem I would greatly appreciate it. Thank you for any help in advance.
Hello sooner; This is just a bump to get you back near the top of the posts, there are some good web site people that come here and maybe they'll see it and give you some advice. I don't know of anybody that uses that program.

Hi,
Web work is my business and I suggest you get a real html editor. I tried that program and it is horrible, I deleted it. You need a real html editor and get a commercial third party storefront tool package that you can build your storefront in, one that provides back up support and security patches for issues if needed. For interactive sites I use Dreamweaver with this third party extensionhttp://www.webassist.com/dreamweaver-extensions/data-bridge
In this day and age the web is full of hackers and sql injection attacks is common place on storefronts. You should at least use a commercial storefront engine that has security support or you will get clobbered and when you do (you will) who will provide support and help?
Here is just one of many examples of what's going on out there and this is the latest one. http://www.theregister.co.uk/2014/11/03/drupal_drupalgeddon_analysis/
I have over 50 storefronts on line and updates, patches, security attacks are common place and it is a part time job just keeping them safe.
Draw rocks for designing and creating assets for your site (images, graphics, design elements), I use it daily. Then the assets are placed in a site using an html editor (DW here).
My 2 cents
