Example: Metro Auto Parts sells parts for Mustangs and other classic cars. They want to organize their site by "Catalog" (e.g. Classic Mustang or Late Model Mustang), then by category and sub-category. They want to fit a lot of information in tables on category and sub-category pages. They want total control over the look and feel of their site. They need an easy way to import new catalogs with large numbers of parts into the site. And they want to automate the process as much as possible.

Solution: The Stone Edge ECom Assembler, again using HTML page templates with custom tags where data should be inserted. Tags are used to define different styles of tables for different pages, from the list of catalogs on the home page, to the lists of individual parts on the Parts List pages. 

Now with a single button-click, Metro Auto Parts can generate:

• A home page, with links for each catalog

• Category pages and Sub-category pages, each listing all of the categories in one catalog or the sub-categories in one category

• Product List pages, listing the specific parts in each sub-category in a compact table format on one or more automatically generated pages

• Product pages, with images and details about specific parts
