Chapter 2THE PROBLEM DEFINITIONS

This software is designed to serve the Business Operations/Marketing Analysis of an

Manufacturing/Marketing Organization .This software efficiently promotes Business for

organizations with least technical knowledge.

2.1 OBJECTIVE

The objective of software is to promote business by automating the process of:

Managing the software contents without technical knowledge.

Direct consumer communication. Secure flow of data in the hierarchy maintaining data integrity.

The software deals with an Admin Panel designed for a single user who is not a technocrate

but a business person though providing secure and consistent data.

2.2SOFTWARE DESIGN AND COMPONENTS

The design of software is such that there will be two levels/components, one is user level and

other is Admin level. The users can query their requirements and the admin will be notified.

Admin can change the contents of the user view.

2.3 FUNCTIONAL REQUIREMENTS

VALIDATIONS

Admin will have a Username and a Password, and will be given access to the application only

after matching these values. Login will be denied if the admin is not validated after matching

Username and Password from the Database. Appropriate message will be given to the Admin.

It will ensure the application is secure as only Admin will be given Access, to protect

application, from being accessed by any Invalid user and hence ensuring important data from

being accessed or even tampered. The Admin is also allowed for a three time trial, after that

he cannot access the login page.

SECURITY

Security is maintained at single level that is the Admin level, who can modify the whole user

view. Secure login sessions and User name password matching authentication provides the

level of security needed. No user can modify the contents of the software. Secure sessions do

not allow viewing pages even by providing the link .An advancement for security is the

CAPTCHA authentication, in which if captcha matches then only the queries of user will be

entertained. Captcha is used to prevent filling of database by bots.

Chapter 3LANGUAGE OF IMPLEMENTATION

3.1 INTRODUCTION TO PHP

PHP is a widely-used general-purpose scripting language that is especially suited for Web

development and can be embedded into HTML[1]. PHP is the Web Development Language

written by and for Web developers. PHP stands for PHP: Hypertext Preprocessor. The

product was originally named Personal Home Page Tools, and many people still think that`s

what the acronym stands for. But as it expanded in scope, a new and more appropriate name

was selected by community vote. PHP is a server-side scripting language, which can be

embedded in HTML or used as a standalone binary (although the former use is much more

common). Proprietary products in this niche are Microsoft`s Active Server Pages,

Macromedia`s ColdFusion, and Sun`s Java Server Pages[2].

3.2 HISTORY OF PHP

PHP development began in 1994 when the developer Rasmus Lerdorf wrote a series of

Common Gateway Interface (CGI) Perl scripts, which he used to maintain his personal

homepage. The tools performed tasks such as displaying his rsum and recording his web

traffic[1] .He rewrote these scripts in C for performance reasons, extending them to add the

ability to work with web forms and to communicate with databases and called this

implementation "Personal Home Page/Forms Interpreter" or PHP/FI. PHP/FI could be used to

build simple, dynamic web applications. Lerdorf initially announced the release of PHP/FI as

"Personal Home Page Tools (PHP Tools) version 1.0" publicly to accelerate bug location and

improve the code, on the comp.infosystems.www.authoring.cgi Usenet discussion group on

June 8, 1995. This release already had the basic functionality that PHP has today. This

included Perl-like variables, form handling, and the ability to embed HTML. The syntax was

similar to Perl but was more limited and simpler, although less consistent. A development

team began to form and, after months of work and beta testing, officially released PHP/FI 2

in November 1997.

3.3 VERSIONS OF PHP[3]

PHP1, PHP2

These versions were primary versions of PHP which are now not at all used.

PHP 3

PHP 3.0 was the first version that closely resembles PHP as it exists today. Finding PHP/FI

2.0 still inefficient and lacking features they needed to power an eCommerce application they

were developing for a university project, Andi Gutmans and Zeev Suraski of Tel Aviv, Israel,

began yet another complete rewrite of the underlying parser in 1997. Approaching Rasmus

online, they discussed various aspects of the current implementation and their redevelopment

of PHP. In an effort to improve the engine and start building upon PHP/FI's existing user

base, Andi, Rasmus, and Zeev decided to collaborate in the development of a new,

independent programming language. This entirely new language was released under a new

name, that removed the implication of limited personal use that the PHP/FI 2.0 name held. It

was renamed simply 'PHP', with the meaning becoming a recursive acronym - PHP:

Hypertext Preprocessor.

One of the biggest strengths of PHP 3.0 was its strong extensibility features. In addition to

providing end users with a mature interface for multiple databases, protocols, and APIs, the

ease of extending the language itself attracted dozens of developers who submitted a variety

of modules. Arguably, this was the key to PHP 3.0's tremendous success. Other key features

introduced in PHP 3.0 included object-oriented programming support and a far more

powerful and consistent language syntax.

In June, 1998, with many new developers from around the world joining the effort, PHP 3.0

was announced by the new PHP Development Team as the official successor to PHP/FI 2.0.

Active development of PHP/FI 2.0, which had all-but ceased as of November of the previous

year, was now officially ended. After roughly nine months of open public testing, when the

announcement of the official release of PHP 3.0 came, it was already installed on over 70,000

domains around the world, and was no longer limited to POSIX-compliant operating systems.A relatively small share of the domains reporting PHP as installed were hosted on servers

running Windows 95, 98, and NT, and Macintosh. At its peak, PHP 3.0 was installed on

approximately 10% of the web servers on the Internet.

PHP 4

By the winter of 1998, shortly after PHP 3.0 was officially released, Andi Gutmans and Zeev

Suraski had begun working on a rewrite of PHP's core. The design goals were to improve

performance of complex applications, and improve the modularity of PHP's code base. Such


7/23

7

applications were made possible by PHP 3.0's new features and support for a wide variety of

third party databases and APIs, but PHP 3.0 was not designed to handle such complex

applications efficiently.

The new engine, dubbed 'Zend Engine' (comprised of their first names, Zeev and Andi), met

these design goals successfully, and was first introduced in mid 1999. PHP 4.0, based on this

engine, and coupled with a wide range of additional new features, was officially released in

May 2000, almost two years after its predecessor. In addition to the highly improved

performance of this version, PHP 4.0 included other key features such as support for many

more web servers, HTTP sessions, output buffering, more secure ways of handling user input

and several new language constructs.

PHP 5

PHP 5 was released in July 2004 after long development and several pre-releases. It is mainly

driven by its core, the Zend Engine 2.0 with a new object model and dozens of other new

features.

PHP's development team includes dozens of developers, as well as dozens others working on

PHP-related and supporting projects, such as PEAR, PECL, and documentation, and an

underlying network infrastructure of well over one-hundred individual web servers on six of

the seven continents of the world. Though only an estimate based upon statistics from

previous years, it is safe to presume PHP is now installed on tens or even perhaps hundreds of

millions of domains around the world.

3.5 FEATURES OF PHP[4]

SERVER SIDE SCRIPTING

PHP was originally designed to create dynamic web content, and it is still best suited for that

task. To generate HTML, you need the PHP parser and a web server to send the documents.

Lately, PHP has also become popular for generating XML documents, graphics, Flash

animations, PDF files, and more.

COMMAND LINE SCRIPTING

PHP can run scripts from the command line, much like Perl, awk, or the Unix shell. You

might use the command-line scripts for system administration tasks, such as backup and log

parsing.

CLIENT SIDE GUI APPLICATIONS

Using PHP-GTK (http://gtk.php.net), you can write full-blown, cross-platform GUI

applications in PHP.

OPERATING SYSTEM SUPPORT

PHP runs on all major operating systems, from Unix variants including Linux, FreeBSD, and

Solaris to such diverse platforms as Windows and Mac OS X. It can be used with all leading

web servers, including Apache, Microsoft IIS, and the Netscape/iPlanet servers.

DATABASE SUPPORT

One of PHP's most significant features is its wide-ranging support for databases. PHPsupports all major databases (including MySQL, PostgreSQL, Oracle, Sybase, and ODBC-

compliant databases), and even many obscure ones. With PHP, creating web pages with

dynamic content from a database is remarkably simple.

Finally, PHP provides a library of PHP code to perform common tasks, such as database

abstraction, error handling, and so on, with the PHP Extension and Application Repository

(PEAR). PEAR is a framework and distribution system for reusable PHP components.[5]

Server XAMPP 1.7.2 or greater

XAMPP 1.7.4

XAMPP is a free and open source cross-platform web server solution stack package,

consisting mainly of the Apache HTTP Server, MySQL database, and interpreters for scripts

written in the PHP and Perl programming languages. XAMPP is regularly updated to

incorporate the latest releases of Apache/MySQL/PHP and Perl. It also comes with a number

of other modules including OpenSSL and phpMyAdmin.

Self-contained, multiple instances of XAMPP can exist on a single computer, and any given

instance can be copied from one computer to another.It is offered in both a full, standard

version and a smaller version.

Officially, XAMPP's designers intended it for use only as a development tool, to allow

website designers and programmers to test their work on their own computers without anyaccess to the Internet. To make this as easy as possible, many important security features are

disabled by default. In practice, however, XAMPP is sometimes used to actually serve web

pages on the World Wide Web. A special tool is provided to password-protect the most

important parts of the package.

XAMPP also provides support for creating and manipulating databases in MySQL and

SQLite among others.

Once XAMPP is installed, it is possible to treat a localhost like a remote host by connecting

using an FTP client. Using a program like FileZilla has many advantages when installing a

content management system (CMS) like Joomla. It is also possible to connect to localhost via

FTP with an HTML editor.

The default FTP user is "newuser", the default FTP password is "wampp".

The default MySQL user is "root" while there is no default MySQL password.

Components of XAMPP are
