??? You created the database stored procedures that are called by their business tier counterparts to effectively
add, edit, or remove categories.
Have a close look at the new code that you added to make sure you understand exactly how it works before moving
on to implement products and attributes management features in Chapter 11.
Summary
You??™ve done quite a lot of coding in this chapter. You implemented a number of componentized
templates, along with their middle tier methods and stored procedures for the data tier. You
learned how to implement a simple authentication scheme, so only administrators are allowed
to access the catalog administration page, and you implemented the department and category
administration features of TShirtShop. In Chapter 11, you??™ll finish the administration page by
adding management features for products and their attributes.
