Learning Curve

I realise that it may be like asking how long is a piece of string but I have a question that I wonder if people could help me with. I've been contemplating learning Java and WebObjects for 12 months now but reading this list is about as far as I seem to get. A client of mine has asked me to quote for a small and relatively simple e-commerce site and I'm faced with a dilemma.

I can either buy an off the shelf shopping cart or I can use the opportunity to learn Java and WebObjects and build it myself. My question is, is the latter feasible or would the learning curve be far too steep. I have twenty weeks to get the site live but I have no programming background other than a little 'tinkering' with Perl and getting as far as loops in Java.

I've read a little on Java but have really fallen down when trying to get my head around objects, I understand their logic in principal but I just seem unable to get my head around inheritance and code reuse.

Any advice would be very welcome.
