 * Ok so i’ve been given a design for a product page to go on a site i’m building.
   I need some advice on what plugins to use and what’s actually possible.
 * 1) There’s a menu on the left side which shows different products and categories
   on a about three levels.
 * I’m thinking i could put a sidebar widget area on the left and have an accordion
   menu widget.
 * 2) The main content of the page is the product details. There’s a product description
   with an image and also various tabs. Things like features and downloads for the
   product.
 * I’ve seen various plugins that can do the tab thing but they all involve shortcodes.
   Ideally it needs to be different editors for each tab (when i say editors i mean
   the wysiswg editor when created a page).
 * For example the first editor will be the description, then another editor will
   be content for the features tab. Another section to attach downloads for the 
   downloads tab.
 * 3) There is a section below the product which is a call back section.
 * I’m thinking for this another widget section and a contact form widget. It shows
   the phone number, a request demo and request quote. It also has a small form 
   for name when to call back and telephone number.
 * 4) Finally there is a related products section at the bottom. Which is a slider
   with images and titles of the product.
 * For this i’m not sure about. I’ve looked at various related post plugins but 
   i’ve not seen one that would be a small slider with images of related products.
 * I know i’ve asked a lot here but any help, plugin suggestions or anything will
   be greatly appreciated.
 * Thanks
