Hi,

I"m new.

Right now I'm using Serif Webplus. It doesn't support opencart.

What web editing software could handle this?

Eclipse
Dreamweaver
Basic Notepad (my choice)

And many more.

Basically, you can do the template design in anything - you just have to make sure you include all the code to call the data you want in the page you are designing. You can figure that out by looking at the default template included with opencart.

can you elaborate a little on how to do this? I am still new at this. Basically I want my customers to be able to go back and forth between my website and opencart quickly and smoothly. What would be the best way to do this?

You need to know at least a little about php. All echo statements, javascript calls, etc, have to be preserved on any pages you create to allow opencart to function. But you can change their order, but them in other places, change their style via the css stylesheet, etc. If you want to move elements from one page to another, you have to edit their controller and perhaps model pages as well.
