Question

On a MVC 2 website what I want to do is get a list of products / CategoryId. From that list, create a list of distinct CategoryId’s. Then randomly pick a categoryId from the second list and use it to get all the products for that categoryId. I then want to store that CategoryId so that I don’t display those products on the next run.

I don’t need any code examples to start. What I’m wondering is that I think I would put this code in a class in my model (Dll) and store the list of displayed CategoryId’s in session. Is this a good solution or should I go another way?

Thank you for you help

Answer 1

This could all belong to your Product model, using methods like getAllProductsByCategoryId(id) and maybe use a Category model to do the reverse.
