I want to design a website for a small business, selling custom portrait artwork. I think most of the pages can be done with html and css, but I'd like some opinions on what I need to know in order to do the more difficult pages.
There are two pages I'm not sure how to design (and if it would require something other than html and css, that's fine and I'd love to know about it).
One is the gallery page. On the gallery page, I want about 16 original photos. When the viewer mouses over the photo, I want the photo to switch to the custom artwork, and then back to the original when the mouse is moved again. When the viewer clicks on the photo, I want a smaller window to open up on top of the gallery page and show the selected original photo and the custom artwork side-by-side.
The other is the ordering page. I want for it to be easy for the person to order. I want to have fillable fields for name, E-mail, and shipping address, and then a multi-choice thing where they can select the size and shape of drawing they want, the color of the matting, and frame or no frame, by selecting a little circle beside the desired option. Then at the bottom I want them to be able to upload their photo directly to the website, and have it show up in a certain size at the bottom. Then they can click, "OK" or something along those lines, and it will show a confirmation of what they selected on the previous page, show the photo again, and then have fields for billing information. And then (ideally) when they click "confirm order," it would send the information to my E-mail and send a confirmation to them.
I don't know if this is possible with html and css or if I would need to learn something else. I don't have the money to hire a professional website designer, just to start the website and get the examples drawn, or else I would have it professionally designed.
So, can I do this with HTML and CSS (however advanced), or do I need to learn something else too?
