Well I’ve actually been able to make quite a bit of progress in making the application. Far more progress than I though I was going to make so i’m very happy about that. Of the 4 major pages that I needed to ensure that I got up and running, I already have teh basic functionality down pat. The next step that I need to take is actually adding all of the minerals to the database. After I complete that, then I will be going back and perfecting the basic form for the Order summary page to include all minerals in the general format that I want them in. Then I will have to spend time designing the most exciting page – “Order details”.
It will be in this page that all teh key informaiton about teh order is layed out. Most importantly, I will finally be able to test out the organization of Lots. Specifically, attempting to develop a system wehre the page adjusts the tables based upon how many Lots the producer has decided to split his minerals into. I think that I am definitely going to have to write a function about this though :s.
All in all I am very excited about my progress. By the end of the weekend I really need to be setting the goal of having the entire thing up and running with exactness of how I want it to be funcitonality-wise. Then by Monday hopefully I can upload everything to testing by the corp members.
Here’s to a great success. :)
