8 Customizing the store front

Combining template page exceptions with skinning techniques allows the creation of custom store front pages.

This can be used to create a unique design with for example a tree view or accordeon menu. To achieve this

the skinning engine includes a special function to retrieve a list of documents and publication in a PHP array.

This data can be used to generate custom HTML code in the template file (preferably a template exception for

the store front pages).

The PHP getTree() function of the Storefront class retrieves a list of publication types and documents that the

current user has access to.

Store front samples can be found in the folder of the default skin. They can be used as a reference when

creating your own pages. The samples use template exception for the store front page and custom Javascript/

jQuert code.
