Using ZK Border Layout

Why Use ZK Border Layout

  • Product View - A table displaying the available products to purchase
  • Shopping Cart View - A list of items placed in the shopping cart
  • Order View - A record of all the orders placed

  • collapsible, so views could be collapsed to make room for other views.
