TAGS IN TEMPLATES

WEBMASTERCART uses the templates for every screen the software generates. You will notice that some things are hard-coded and other things are called with tags. For example, on the main template named 'shoppingcart.html' , you will see a tag called $shoppingcartrow. In this case the $shoppingcartrow tag calls the html code from shoppingcartrow.html when the page is viewed online, through the cgi. There is a a similar situation for other templates such as categoryresults.html, searchresults.html, etc. Tags used in the templates ... SHOPPING CART ROW (shoppingcartrow.html)
