Thanks for the reply!

I’m not sure I understand what CodeIgniter does. It says it’s a framework, does that mean it is a selection of scripts thatyou edit to do what you want? Or it is more like a library so you can write PHP similar to the way you would jQuery.

Also the Haystack website is pretty much what we want, only it will be the other way round, rather than companies paying to place an advert on the site. The customer fills in a form saying they want a specific service, and the companies that can provide that service pay for the customers details so that they can then get in touch.

Really it should be easier than the Haystack website. The thing I am struggling to work out how to pull off is the ‘admin’ area, where the a record is kept of how much an advertiser has paid, and then each time a lead is sent to them, a certain amount of their balance is subtracted.

Does any of that make sense?
