Web to Opportunity/Product or Custom Tab?

Is it possible to create a form on a web and have it create a new Opportunity or Product. Can it be coded to populate a custom tab. I am looking into options of creating our own e-commerce site using Salesforce.com.

the quick way to do this is to create a case or lead from the web using web2case or web2lead , then write a "custom link" or scontrol which converts the case or lead into an opportunity or custom object. It is not fully automated but with a click or two you can transfer your data from a lead into an opp.

Hi Melliot,

If you are hosting your site using java app server or .net app server you can to web2x. You would build your form and submit your form to your own site. A servlet on your site would recieve the form data and, using the api, create whatever object is represented by the x in web2x and send that object to salesforce.com web service.
