PDA: Part 7

The seventh and final part of your PDA project is to create a fully functional site by adding an extensive web interface to your database.

The functionality of your PDA is open-ended and may depend on your schema. For example, if your application supports users you should implement some basic functionality including:

  1. The ability for a new user to register.
  2. The ability for a registered user to change profile information.
  3. The ability to search user profiles based on several conditions.
  4. The ability to compute various statistics, such as the number of users, etc.
The submission requirement for this part is very easy. All you need to do is to email the instructor and the TA the URL of your interface.

Please, make sure that the registration process does not require inputing excessive amount of data by providing default values or allowing NULLs for most nonessential user attributes. For example, user name and password should certainly be required but a credit card number and address should be optional.
