Hello, people!

This is a not a WO or WOnder question per se, but I think you guys can help me. 
Since English is not my native language, I couldn't find anything on the web...

I have this feature I want to implement in a website, which I call 
"configurator".

In a database of products, each product has options, for example: memory 
capacity (integer), display type (enum: color, monochrome), audio (boolean), 
WLAN regulatory domain (enum: FCC, EU, Japan), and so on.

My problem is that some options require other specific option(s) to have a 
specific value, for example: audio is only available in configurations with a 
color display.

And, to confuse it a little more, different products have different options 
with their own rules.

How can I create a model in a way I can input these rules for "valid" 
configurations? Also, when the user browses the website, he/she can configure 
the products the way they want and be assured that they won't select an invalid 
configuration.

I am trying to figure this out, but it doesn't look easy.


Cheers,
Flavio
