| Catalog Package Specification |
| The Catalog Package will typically be a compressed
archive of files. There will be a single XML file which
stores information about the products, prices, and will
have links to HTML pages from products. The HTML files
will then link to image files. This means generation of the HTML and images can be done with standard tools, and rendered on the client side using a standard web browser. The XML will be parsed by the Client internally. The initial version of the Catalog will have no business logic in it. However this is an open area, in that business may want to include some kind of business logic script in the catalog to perform bulk discounts and other calculations. |
