A commerce site must supply mechanisms for customers to navigate through the site and find the products they want to buy. Oracle ATG Web Commerce includes services that you can use to implement navigational and searching mechanisms on your sites.

This chapter includes the following sections:

This chapter covers only components specific to the Commerce native search capabilities, which are based on the atg.commerce.catalog.SearchFormHandler; this is not the same as the Oracle ATG Web Commerce Search product. For general information on components used in searching, see the Using Search Forms chapter in the ATG Page Developer's Guide. For information on Oracle ATG Web Commerce Search, including how to use it as part of your Oracle ATG Web Commerce site, see the ATG Search Installation and Configuration Guide and the ATG Search Administration Guide.
