eStore Builder SmartElements
In Drumbeat, a SmartElement is any type of element you put on a page, such as
text, images, video, etc. They include Applets, ActiveX objects, COM objects,
Scriptlets and a variety of custom elements. You drag and drop SmartElements
from the toolbar and/or Asset Center.
The eStore Builder package includes three custom eStore SmartElements, two
of which you will be using in this tutorial. The eStore SmartElements were
added to your Element Library collection when you installed eStore. They should
also appear on your SmartElements Toolbar. The CyberCash SmartElement,
which is not used in this tutorial, is discussed in the User’s Guide and Reference
Guide following.
