Commerce Reference Store product detail pages include the store.war/browse/gadgets/pickerPriceAttribute.jspf page fragment. This page fragment determines how pricing information should be presented on the product detail page. There are two cases: a SKU is currently selected or no SKU is selected.
Rendering Prices for a Selected SKU
When a SKU is currently selected, the price information should reflect the price for that SKU only. In this case, pickerPriceAttribute.jspf calls store.war/global/gadgets/PriceLookup.jsp to render the SKU’s price. priceLookup.jsp calls the /atg/commerce/pricing/priceLists/PriceDroplet component twice, once with the price list stored in the customer’s priceList property and a second time with the price list stored in the customer’s salePriceList property. These two calls allow priceLook.jsp to determine if the SKU is on sale and, if so, render the price information accordingly. If a sale price exists, priceLookup.jsp shows sale price followed by the list price in strike-through format. If a sale price doesn’t exist, priceLookup.jsp simply renders the list price.

Rendering Prices When No SKU is Selected
When no SKU is selected, the price information should reflect the range of prices for all of the SKUs associated with the product. In this case, pickerPriceAttribute.jspf calls store.war/global/gadgets/PriceRange.jsp to render the price range. PriceRange.jsp uses the atg/commerce/pricing/PriceRangeDroplet to calculate the highest and lowest prices for a product’s constituent SKUs and then renders the results. This gadget takes sale prices into account when calculating the range, if they exist.
