Jenk Posted September 21, 2006 Share Posted September 21, 2006 Calling an e-Commerce app too easy .. I won't even go into that.Ask them for suggestions. e-Commerce is about as complex as any other app out there. Even the simplest of homepages can be complex..Seriously, ask them for suggestions - if they say "that's not my decision to make" then effectively they are talking crap.If you go ahead with an e-Commerce app. just remember security. Make the site with OO and perhaps add modularity for the ability to support various RDBMS, payment systems, etc. etc. etc. Quote Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/21481-php-project/#findComment-96087 Share on other sites More sharing options...
roopurt18 Posted September 21, 2006 Share Posted September 21, 2006 For this project, are they looking at functionality or design? Building a simple shopping cart app probably is too easy.But building an entire site with adminstrators, users, proper security settings, feedback mechanisms, data import mechanisms, etc. is no easy task.As part of your design, you might want to allow the site to be easily customized in appearance and functionality. If your design supports this kind of functionality, you'll surely want to provide a couple examples of how you used it in developing the site.

phpfan Posted September 24, 2006 Author Share Posted September 24, 2006 Actually they are looking about the research you have done and how you have implement the page according to your results. I have to do a research on two topics and then according to the results i will design my page. As a first topic i thought that will be a good idea to do a research about security. I also thought making a research about the functionality and user friendliness of the web pages. Any ideas, opinions or help are welcome...

lee20 Posted September 29, 2006 Share Posted September 29, 2006 AJAX might be a fresh topic for your research and can certainly heighten the complexity of whatever type of site you decide on.

If only more people were interested in making their websites more usable, the web would be a better place. One of my pet hates is when some idiot puts little or no thought into the usability of their website.
