I'm assuming that you're trying to show the exact same
product/category information just displayed
differently depending on the catalog.
If this assumption is correct, this is how I would do
it:
widget/CatalogScreens.xml#category calls the
"category-include" screen
category-include calls:
component://order/webapp/ordermgr/WEB-INF/actions/entry/catalog/category.bsh
this script sets the ${detailScreen} to be
"categorydetail"
if you move the setting of this variable to below the
getting of the productCategoryId and put your logic
about which detailScreen should be used here and
create new screens that display the category
differently it should work.
