This mentor will step you through the process of setting up a database table for a
specific product category in your store.
You save this file to the Database folder in the named category sub folder as the_category_name_db.htm.
Save as db.htm in the MyDB folder if running MyStore3 Lite.
The Commercial grade Database structure will look as follows:
MyStore (folder) |_ Database (folder) |_ the category list file, category_db.htm |_ generic store operation files |_ The_category_name (folder) |_ the_category_name_db.htm ** |_ promo.htm |_ promoout.htm |_ product 'type' pages |_ item 'detail' pages |_ pop up messages |_ Images (folder) |_ all images used in this category |_ Another_category (folder) |_ another_category_name_db.htm ** |_ etc. |_ A Demo category (folder) ** This is the product table of all items in the category. When a category is selected by the customer, it is the information in this table that gets displayed on a new page. The category is selected from the category list page which is displayed when a customer clicks the "Browse" button.
The Lite grade Database structure will look as follows:
