After you enter the database and images for your store, you have to publish it. By publishing we mean generating a set of necessary files for your online stores.

At the Store Editor screen:

• Click on the ‘Publish’ button
  
  
  
• If you have already set up taxes correctly for your country and state/province, then check off the ‘Skip next dialog setup (country and state/province selection)’
• ‘Select’ a template
• ‘Select’ your country and states/provinces, if necessary. ‘Cancel’ takes you out of the publishing process
• You will be asked to select a checkout script on the next screen:
  
  
  
• Note the description on each script at the bottom section of this screen. Each of the script serves a different purpose. This script will call the correct  order form on our server.
• The most common script is the checkout.cgi script. Some special scripts:
  1. taxontax.cgi - this applies the Federal tax on both the State/Provincial tax and the total purchase
  2. encrypt.cgi - this will encrypt the credit card info, to decrypt, you need to run the decryptor program that came with our program
  3. nocard.cgi - this will not collect any credit card info
  4. various foreign language scripts - we now support Chinese Big 5, Dutch, French, German, Hungary, Icelandic, Japanese, Norwegian, Portuguese, Spanish, Taiwan.
  These will load the order form in appropriate language. 
  To publish the stores in a foreign language (including above mentioned languages) you have to enter your store information and products in your language of choice. You also have to translate some of the prompts, the shopping cart page in your language. Please contact us support@zilron.com or support@acmworld.com for a list of phrases that need to be translated. We have translated only the order forms to foreign languages.
  For Chinese and Japanese, you also need to select a special *.cpp script and charset to publish your stores. See below.
  
  
  
• Select the default 'is0-8859-1' for English web pages.
• From this Script Setup screen, you can also specify whether you want the Pop up window and the Shopping Cart Page to be displayed each time the customers click on the 'Add to cart' button.
  
  
  
• At the next screen, you can ‘View Item list’ or ‘Preview’ your store right from your PC.
  We suggest you preview your store and test the store by actually placing a test order to make sure everything works properly. While you are previewing the store, you should still see Zilron StoreCreator icon on your task bar (provided you haven’t chosen to hide your task bar).
• Return to Zilron StoreCreator program by selecting Zilron’s icon at the task bar
• Click on ‘Done’
• Upload every file in \…\upload\storeID\*.* to your web site
