availability system

Post by clearmind »

Hi.
I'm Giorgos. I'm from Crete, Greece.
I'm newbie to PHP and i'm planning to make a project about check availability for rent-rooms (suites).
There are 4 Suites and the administrator will enter an admin like area, which will allow him to check the available/non available dates for each room apart.

From the other side, site's visitors will go in the reservation form and there will see a List/menu (with the suite's names). They select a Suite and the Start Date / End Date (calendar?) they want to make a booking. If the date is not available next to the list menu somehow will see a "non available" warning...

any idea how to do this ???
Please i need helpppppppppppp!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

you have posted the exact same post in three threads now. After two, that counts as spamming to me.

It doesn't matter whether your dictionary defines spam as unsolicitated emails or pink pandas jumping through fiery hoops, the point is that it is incredibly rude to just post your message throughout multiple topics or forums just so you can get attention faster. Not only is it selfish, but the few people who might have been willing to help you do this for free, get turned off by it. People would've seen your post just as fast if you had just made a topic like you did here.

You can call it anything you like .... but not SPAM...
This was from a REAL HUMAN BEING acting M A N U A L L Y, not from a spider etc. I know it was wrong just posting the same things in different topics

PEACE and love .... live with your little boundary forum-rules.

greetings from the beautiful Greece.

Dictionary.com/spam wrote:spam

vt.,vi.,n. [from "Monty Python's Flying Circus"]
  1. To crash a program by overrunning a fixed-size buffer with excessively large input data. See also buffer overflow, overrun screw, smash the stack.
  2. To cause a newsgroup to be flooded with irrelevant or inappropriate messages. You can spam a newsgroup with as little as one well- (or ill-) planned message (e.g. asking "What do you think of abortion?" on soc.women). This is often done with cross-posting (e.g. any message which is crossposted to alt.rush-limbaugh and alt.politics.homosexuality will almost inevitably spam both groups). This overlaps with troll behavior; the latter more specific term has become more common.
  3. To send many identical or nearly-identical messages separately to a large number of Usenet newsgroups. This is more specifically called 'ECP', Excessive Cross-Posting. This is one sure way to infuriate nearly everyone on the net. See also velveeta and jello.
  4. To bombard a newsgroup with multiple copies of a message. This is more specifically called 'EMP', Excessive Multi-Posting.
  5. To mass-mail unrequested identical or nearly-identical email messages, particularly those containing advertising. Especially used when the mail addresses have been culled from network traffic or databases without the consent of the recipients. Synonyms include UCE, UBE.
  6. Any large, annoying, quantity of output. For instance, someone on IRC who walks away from their screen and comes back to find 200 lines of text might say "Oh no, spam".
The later definitions have become much more prevalent as the Internet has opened up to non-techies, and to most people senses 3, 4, and 5 are now primary. All three behaviors are considered abuse of the net, and are almost universally grounds for termination of the originator's email account or network connection. In these senses the term `spam' has gone mainstream, though without its original sense or folkloric freight - there is apparently a widespread myth among lusers that "spamming" is what happens when you dump cans of Spam into a revolving fan.
Hey look ma, it's spam. :roll:

Please re-reading your post, and then the post of SPAM by definition, and then please explain how his post was spam because he copy and pasty.

And hey, didn't you say you are never posting here again? LIAR! :P

Now if you would like some PHP help, act appropriatly and do not flame, unless of of course you want your posts deleted and yourself banned.

Have a good one.
