Hi, I want to create my first interactive website using Frontpage 2002
I also have Access 2003. Although I am quite capable of finding out
what I need to do to accomplish tasks I am not sure how and what
technologies I actually need to use. I would really appreciate some
advice as to how to get started! I am currently awaiting delivery of a
couple of books: Unleashing Frontpage 2002 and Mastering Frontpage
2002. the latter book has arrived.
The Requirement
1. The website needs to allow for an indeterminate number of users who
can register for their section of the website.
2. They will be able, for a moderate fee to upload two types of file:
high resolution photograph and related text.
3. The website will be able to generate new pages using a preformatted
template to display one photo and text per page. I believe the user
will also want to have the option to have more pages, for an additional
fee and to replace photos from time to time
4. The website will need a search facility, that can be used in a
variety of ways eg. Product, Country, Town, and Post Code searches
5. I will also need to be able to submit material directly but do not
want to have to do so as this would involve too much work.
Solution?
1. My perception of the requirements are that a form, or forms have to
be designed that will capture all the information that is or may be
required
2. the data will need to be stored in a database I have Access
3. the search facility will enable data to be fetched to generate a
page with a retrieved photographic image together with its related
textual information
4. billing information could be on data acceptance or on registration
or at a later date or dates. I could use Paypal
5. to enable the automatic generation of the website and most of its
management. The data from the forms will need to be stored in an
Access database
6. I will need Frontpage with Server Extensions enabled ,ASP and ODBC
I wonder if anyone knows of a guide that has diagrams of various types
of website structure set out as flowcharts
