Short Version:
Where might I find an example of creating a new page or new component
where I can take a URL parameter and write my own SQL queries, and output
data?
Long Version:
I'll make a list of how I'd like the workflow to go ...
1) A store front index page with a left hand menu, containg only the
store's product groups. I can easily see how to do that with the menu
editor.
2) When clicking on a left hand menu link, the url goes to a page where it
takes the Product Group as a URL parameter and displays a list of
categories in the center.
Q: How to access URL parameters in a component/page?
Q: How to develop custom SQL queries and output the data.
3) When clicking on the category link it goes to a page which lists the
products, simmilar to the default search.
I'm picturing this ot be a simple 3-tier link structurt from opening the
storefront page with product groups, to categories, to the actual product?
Does this sound reasonable?
Thanks
Jon
