Volunteer Needed - Might Be Too Much To Do For Free Though?

Post by davidfarren »

Hi,

i have designed a website for my bosses friend and who wants to advertise his available jobs on there.

originally i was just going to design the website etc. and then just make him a tutorial on how to go into the html and add new jobs that way but i have a feeling he would mess things up.

i now have an idea of sort of a blog type system where he can go to a page where he will see input boxes like:

Job Title:
Wage:
Location:
Duration:
Date Posted:
Pention Details:
Job Description:

and then a button at the bottom which will allow them to email there cv.

any help would be appreciated :mrgreen: :oops:

i now have an idea of sort of a blog type system where he can go to a page where he will see input boxes like:

Job Title:

Job Description:

and when he has finished he clicks post or something which will then put it on to the website so people can view it kind of like a blog and at the bottom of the page the person who want to apply for the job can click on a button that will allow them to email their CV :?

You could probably do that by using wordpress or something similar.

Well, you'd need the page to post, the page to insert it into the database (which I would personally combine with the first), and a page to fetch it from the database to display it.

What particular part are you having trouble with?

i have made a quick little blog http://www.davidstests.netne.net which i can insert blog entries and display them but i would like it if i could just have a page with all the jobs available and then when they click on the job it will take them to a more in-depth view of the job and when they have finished looking if they want to apply they can upload and send there CV
