eCommerce Tycoon

Hey all, I was wondering, besides PHOTOSHOP and HTML (well, I use Dreamweaver instead), what exactly would I need to learn to make an ecommerce site like www.butterflyonline.com That's probably the closest match I seen to what I might have to make, as I'm also going to be into Table Tennis products and all. How hard does that site look, to make?

Currently I just finished a course in Dreamweaver and I'm thinking of either Photoshop or Flash as my next one.

All suggestions and opinions appreciated please help me out a little.

To build an ecommerce site, You need to know web programming languages like PHP,ASP , etc.. Not just a basic programming, you must have a solid knowledge of programming to make a complicated site like that. Am a web designer for years until now i cant make an ecommerce site coz I didnt exercise, and apply my programming knowledge.

Oh, hmm, I was actually thinking what if I stick to only one scripting language like PHP alone, can I be successful?

It depends...

gl3nnx forgot to mention mandatory knowledge of even one DMBS and SQL for manipulations with data.

In general people use PHP with MySQL/PostgreSql and ASP with MSSQL.
Personally, I think that programming language itself is not important. The Idea should come first

In most cases the knowledge of PHP and SQL is enough but new tendencies denotes great attention to .NET platform. I have experience with both and find .NET very convenient, but it take significant time to master
