Programming Project

Create a virtual store (the kind of store is your choice). Assume that your store has three basic kinds of products, each of which can come from up to five manufacturers. Of course, each product, from each manufacturer has a different price.

a. Design a site that provides a virtual store front.

b. Create an on-web ordering system that does the following.
-allows the selection of the product and manufacturer
-collects all the information necessary to process the order
-it must verify that there is a name, address, city, state, zip, phone number, credit card number and date of expiration
-it must check that phone number and credit card numbers are all numeric
-it must check that all name data must be character
-it must validate that the two character state code is a valid code for use in the US and Canada
-it must validate that the zipcode is valid; right now, you need only check that 63121 is St. Louis; 60651 is Chicago, and 01776 is Sudbury, MA.

This assignment is due no later than May 5 (not a class day). Turn in the assignment on diskette.

Remember that the project will be graded on the aspects of web page design we have discussed, quality of programming and quality of documentation as well as the materials above.

You should not need to interact with a database to complete this project.
