I am trying to determine which software to use for a e-commerce site. Does Xara work well with this type of site and can anyone provide examples?

It's not designed for that use. People who want ecommerce solutions in their Xara based sites use an iFrame to embed a store cart of one form or another.
You would need to build the e-commerce portion of your site in something like PayPal, amazonassociates or ecwid and then incorporate this into your site.

Most go for ECWID but look at XT-CMS - A CMS that works with Xara - Xara + CMS Demo with blog & shopping cart.

It depends on how many products that you want to sell for a few say less than 30 it should work fine with PayPal buttons, I have an example here;

Thanks for the replies! What about Abantecart? Would it be possible to embed code from that?
http://docs.abantecart.com/pages/emb...Embed-Products shows how to embed AbanteCart into a web page.
For Xara websites, such embedding would be into a page Placeholder, possibly splitting code into scripts and styling in the header and html in the body.
Not as straightforward as you might think,

Shame - I have a few pages started and very happy with them: back to redirect to sub domain then! Thanks for the advice, much appreciated.
