Catalog
Page(s)
Catalog pages can be created dynamically by an ASP,
PHP, CGI, or some other server based script, or
they may be static. There is no limit to the number of catalog pages
or items that NebuCart can handle.
Products in NebuCart have six properties, although more can be added
with customization: ID, Price, Quantity, Description, Limit,
and Options. Shipping Weight may be added at a later date. The
only required properties for adding, updating, and deleting
an item from your cart is ID, Price, and Quantity.
If you have an HTML editor and/or a good working knowledge on setting
up forms, creating product pages should be failry easy. Of course,
the registered version of NebuCart includes a Catalog Builder wizard...
The following instructions will walk you through the creation of
a product for a ficticous clothing store, with details on how to
set up each one of these fields.
Summaries:
For each Product property, there s a summary at the bottom of the
page. This summary gives you a listing of what is required in implementing
each property:
|
Product

A
description of the property |

Field
Suffix
|
when
creating a product, you will use the product's ID as a base
for all the properties. The Field Suffix is the text used to
denote the property type for that product. Example: Product
Price would be denoted by Product_ID_price where "Product_ID"
is the alphanumeric value of that product's ID.
NOTE: each field must use the product ID's base value in the
name, and each individual item must use a unique name. Product
ID's may not be numeric only, but include at least one alphanumeric
character. |
