I did the front-end work which was easy thanks to the templating system, though i had to replace the default templates (which were divs with in-line styles) with tables as we were having IE issues and were working with a variable width template.
The developer had to do a ton of hacking to get all of the client feature requests and says that virtuemart isn't as easily hacked as other OS carts like oscommerce.
Your comments are interesting, because OSC is supposed to be a real pain to work into templates. So if virtuemart is tougher.... wow. Though I guess a lot also depends on the individual's comfort level with a particular piece of software.
I am actually planning to use virtuemart on a future site I am planning, so let's see how that goes.
This works great for Mozilla Firefox, however, IE still allows the content and menus to misalign upon resizing the window?? What is the trick to get the end result in IE to work like Mozilla Firefox??
