.Net Website Template System

This project is the first in a series of ongoing .Net/ASP coding needs for our E-commerce company. Our goal is to develop a relationship, starting with this project, that will extend to include detailed coding work and the implementation of new technologies. Ideally, you have experience with E-commerce. As part of your bid, please point us to samples of your past work. Also please tell us how long it will take to complete the job. Our current website needs to have its architecture modified so that we can use a Template driven display system. Description: Both the category and the product records need to be able to have their displays assigned on a per-record basis. For example, a top-level category may have an entirely different display than a subcategory. A product in one category of the site may use a different layout from one located within another category of the site. In order for this to happen, the display layer must be removed from the page functions and referenced by each product or category record. Backend Modifications: The add/edit products interface must be modified to show a dropdown of available layout templates. The add/edit categories interface must also be modified in the same fashion. Setting this value will determine what the page will look like when requested by a user. Front-End Modification: Folders should be created to contain both the product and category templates. The contents of these folders will dictate the values listed in the dropdowns for the backend products and categories interfaces. ## Deliverables 1) Complete and fully-functional working program(s) in executable form as well as complete source code of all work done. 2) Deliverables must be in ready-to-run condition, as follows (depending on the nature of the deliverables): a) For web sites or other server-side deliverables intended to only ever exist in one place in the Buyer's environment--Deliverables must be installed by the Seller in ready-to-run condition in the Buyer's environment. b) For all others including desktop software or software the buyer intends to distribute: A software installation package that will install the software in ready-to-run condition on the platform(s) specified in this bid request. 3) All deliverables will be considered "work made for hire" under U.S. Copyright law.
