just totally lost

I use os commerce on one of my sites but it was already pre-installed and I'm pretty familiar with the basics now,however,I wanted to use it on a site which I've built myself with my own custom templates colours etc,but when I install it using fantastico(supplied by hosting),it installs as a completely seperate setup with it's own url.

Is it possible to integrate oscommerce with my own site or do I have to look for an alternative,I only want to use paypal,but I like the ease of use oscommerce gives me as well as other features.

thank you

No idea about Fantastico mate - But I did find a tutorial here http://siteground.com/tutorials/oscommerce...nstallation.htm which *may* help. I've had no problems at all installing via FTP. Hope the tutorial is of use :)

In my opinion, stay away from the hosts version of osCommerce, who knows how out of date it is or if they have messed with any of the code. Just download a clean copy from here, unzip it, upload it to your webspace where you want it, install it and make the changes you want to do.
