Hi all,
I have asked to make php application, there is a part in the requirements that says "draw the structure of application and scripting as well" what does it mean? I have already done the script. Does it mean that I have to make a diagram of it, like DB diagram in dia or in some other software?
If it is like UML design then please check this website:
http://www.websequencediagrams.com/
for which I have entered the description like this,
WebBrowser->Server: Input
Server->PHP: Request
PHP->Processing: Action
Processing->To Server: Process DB
To Server->To Browser: Output
Also, what do you think that what should be the description of following in order to make the UML diagram on above said website:
1. The application needs to import contacts from CSV file or TXT file.
2. While importing the contacts, the application should remove duplicates
3. There will be two type of contacts, email,and the Phone Number. The application should sense the contact type and differentiate.
4. The application should be able to send bulk emails to all contacts in the list.
5. The application should log number of emails sent to certain user i.e. (if first we get 10 emails addresses in list and send them 2 emails and afterwards add 34 new email addresses and and then send 3 emails, there should be a log of which user received how many emails from our app).
PLEASE HELP ME OUT.

Why don't you ask the people that gave you the requirements. I would probably take this as a joke and draw a satire picture. That is a ridiculous & stupid requirement.

... this is for some sort of class isn't it? The sad part is you didn't even provide enough context for anyone to help you. Pretty sure that trying to get people to pass your class for you is looked down upon here. Would you want to be operated on by a doctor that cheated on his exam? Would you fly on a plane where the software was written by unqualified programmers? Its pretty much unethical for anybody to answer this kind of thread.

They may be talking about a design/system flowchart.
