Category beans

Content categories enable us to classify Web user interests. You use Category beans to log content categories.

As a Web site visitor navigates the Web pages, a Category bean logs the different categories viewed by the visitor during the session. For example, if a Web site visitor goes to the Web site and views information about the weather, the category "Weather" can be logged. Another Web site visitor might be more interested in sports, so you would log the "Sports" category for this user. Category beans maintain category information for the current session including the categories logged and their corresponding log counts. Category information is routed to all registered log listeners.
