Gregory Huet Honours Project 99034735 Dr. William Buchanan Client Server Web Server File Workstation Request page Active Server Page VBScript HTTP decoding HTTP encoding Add HTTP header Dynamic page Both, PHP and JSP, are based as the ASP model to work on server-side to provide dynamic information. For this project, the implementation of the system will focus on the ASP technology which seems to stay more powerful in database management than other technologies as PHP or JSP in the same area. 28
Gregory Huet Honours Project 99034735 Dr. William Buchanan 5. Implementation The implementation passes through an investigation of needs for the development. As soon as the requirement specifications define, the implementation can start. 5.1 Definition of needs before implementation In this section, it is relevant to speak about the technologies which will be implemented during the development. As it has been describe in the financial approach, the economical aspect is very important to succeed in the implementation of a project, that’s why it is recommended to minimise the effort required to create the assets, avoiding unnecessary repetition to save time and money. The use of techniques as the CSS is relevant to that idea because it allows an easy update of the all site. 5.1.1 User interface The recent studies on users’ configuration show that around 90% of the users are using at least a version 4 or later of Microsoft Internet Explorer and Netscape. Moreover, the screen resolution tends to have a standard of 800×600 pixels, and more and more of 1024×768 pixels, for the same percentage of users. These specifications will be very useful to reach the maximum of users. 5.1.2 Software Software involved in the implementation of the prototype are: • Adobe PhotoShop 6® : used for creating, editing and manipulating graphic elements. • Macromedia Fireworks 4® : used specifically for converting graphic elements to the web. • Macromedia Dreamweaver UltraDev 4® : used for creating, editing and manipulating web pages and dynamically database elements: •Data Bindings Inspector: Quickly add server expressions or information from databases to your pages. Bind any object's attributes to server expressions without knowing the exact syntax. •Multi-Server Design Environment: Build ASP, JSP and CFML sites in one environment—there's no need to master a new program each time you use a different server technology. •Remote Database Connectivity : UltraDev lets you connect directly to a database through your Web application server, instead of defining connections on your development machine and server. •Master Detail, Database Editing, Recordset Navigation, and Recordset Status Live Objects: Build typical Web application layouts more quickly. UltraDev includes a set of predefined objects that generate basic layouts and server-side scripts for common actions. These actions including database inserts, database updates, master/detail relationships, Recordset statistics and Recordset navigation bars. 29
