I have thought of an idea which would be very attractive to, i would guess 99 percent of the population throughout the world.
I would like to build a website that could potentialy open doors to major success ! but i am affraid of people hitting on the idea ahead of me, if i were to explain my plans of this possibly very lucrative buissness .
Ive heard of patent, which i guess is what you need to do if you discover something and you dont want anyone to copy write the idea, im now wondering what the first stages of profesional advice would be to take and who to approach under these circumstances
?

I don't know, but I think its called a copyright, not a patent. Both are so over rated, ideas are taken every day, changed a small amount, then re-copyrighted (or patented). I wish you the best!
Everything we have came from an original idea, so glad that people took the steps to introduce them to the world.
See a patent attorney...not a patent company who charges you an arm and a leg.
Good Luck!

Consult with an IP (intellectual property) or patent law attorney. And be glib in your first meetings. Get a good feel for him. He may be a rat, too.

it's almost important to patent/copywrite anything on the net because it's an open market.
myspace, ebay, wikipeia are all great ideas and copied in abundance

You can talk to lawyers that specialise in patent law - they are the best to advise you.
