Yes, that is what I did and it does work .. Now I have to figure a way
to do set the page_class for example this works globally once it is set
in the index.html:

[set page_class]STORE_A[/set]

I think what I should do , is to have the link for each store take me to
a store home page that has the above code in there for its store.

when the page is called the result will be global and the user will shop
around that store products area / category.

Yes , I tried it ,it seems that the search will not know about the
page_class. Also, what I should do about the Random and cross
components.? Is there a way to have them check the which_page.?
