Setting up a products page

A products page lists all the items you have available for sale in your online store. You might want a link that lets customers view the current contents of their shopping carts.

How you design the page is up to you. You might have one page that lists all your products and lets customers order from that page. Or you could link to a product details page for each item. The key element you need to add in either case is a way for the customer to add a product to a shopping cart. You do this by placing an Add to Cart button enclosed in a form for each product.

The illustration shows a typical design. Also look at the products.asp page included in the demonstration files in the Dynamic Link\Examples\asp\adobe folder for a good example.

Finally, make the page dynamic using the Dynamic Link palette. You will set up content sources, activate button actions later, after you have created all the pages. Next, set up the shopping cart page itself.
