StoreBuilder is also designed to be your entire site, not just the store portion, so we recommend you fold the other (perhaps non store-related) portions of your site into StoreBuilder's layout.TeaRoom is meant to be simple enough that we can provide a line-by-line tutorial of all the pages, and it's also an example of our new XML-style WebDNA syntax which is meant to feed into DreamWeaver and GoLive better than the classic WebDNA syntax. If you want to get your hands dirty and write your own stuff (like a customer database), then you can certainly use TeaRoom as a starting point, but you'll need to write the cvustom code yourself.-- Technical Support ********************************** Smith Micro, Internet Solutions Div | eCommerce (WebCatalog) 16855 West Bernardo Drive, #380 | ------------------------- San Diego, CA 92127 | Software & Site Development WebCatalog Support: (858) 675-0632 | http://www.smithmicro.com Fax: (858) 675-0372 **********************************------------------------------------------------------------- This message is sent to you because you are subscribed to the mailing list .
