Backend Progress Report

turtle power! — Sat, 06 Dec 2008 16:00:12 +0000

So this week we've been able to get everything uploaded and to the server, with the frontend people coding some basic HTML from a CSS-driven template created by Mark. From here they've started a basic homepage and have started creating some of the other sub-pages. I will have to go back and change several of the pages to reflect the dynamic content the admins enter from the portal, but I'm not worried about that.

Backend, Week 14

Work has continued as usual, we have started a generic CSS-based template to work from, then we can always implement the front-end coder's work into ours and adapt the new layout. So far over break we have been able to merge the job applications and the manage content areas and will get the directory browsing running tomorrow, Thursday.

Weekly Progress Report

This week we have encountered a few problems. The largest problem we've encountered was that whenever we have an error on the server, it will not tell us what the error is, or what line the error has been detected. This has really slowed down the developmental progress, but we have been doing the best we can to write accurate code that will work.

Week 12 progress report

I got sick this weekend, that's why this is late, but anyway, here's the progress we've made so far: we've set up the server in my apartment for testing purposes, but then we were informed to use the client's testing server. Once we got the FTP information, we set up the FTP, MSSQL database with tables and have started creating the framework for the backend. We have a secure login completed and have started the administrative portal, where depending on what type of account the user has, they will be able to do different things, such as upload files, post jobs or just view job postings.
