Hey all,

Chances are I'm missing something pretty obvious here... I'd like to display a description for one of my categories of products just above the product grid and I can't seem to figure out a way to do it.

For example, we'll say that my store sells pet food and one of my categories is called "Dog Food". When a user clicks "Dog Food" in the navigation bar, I want them to see a page like this:
[Top bar]
[Title][Search bar]
[Breadcrumbs]
[Facets]
***["About our dog food: Our dog food is prepared fresh by world-class chefs who also happen to be dogs blah blah blah"]***
[Product grid]
[Footer stuff]

Seems like this is probably pretty simple, but for the life of me I can't figure it out. I'd be equally thrilled if there's a way to change the layout of "ProductsBody.jsp" depending on which category of products the user is viewing. Any help is greatly appreciated!

The storefront application we ship uses the Struts2 / Tiles framework where tiles are used to construct the JSP page. A good place to start would be to familiarize yourself with this technology stack and then everything should become clearer when you look at the storefront JSPs.
