Creating Variables in a Category

[karnabaum]

We have a customer that has requested the following. They want to be able to choose a category, and then see a screen that asks two questions where they can choose answers from a drop-down. What they choose in the drop-downs will select one of the products in that category. The others will be hidden. Any ideas?

This is a very complicated question. My "blink" response is yes. As I began to think through a solution I realized there are a few ways to approach this.

1. A javascript function, stored in the Product List customization, that performs the process you described.

2. Create a category that contains 2 other categories (the choices). A custom message that asks the question. They would answer the question by clicking on one of the two categories. That would take them into the appropriate product list.

#2 obviously removes the need for custom programming and maintenance.

Thank you. I am going to try No. 2 and see if I can make it work for what we need.
