Hi all, not really sure where to start with this.
I am working on a site (Flash) for a client, and they want an interactive table reservation system. I have a little bit of experience with PHP, MySQL and XML, but where to start on this has me completely baffled. It’s for a nightclub.
What I need to accomplish is this: When you click on a link for reservations, a window will pop up, with drop-downs requesting what night and how many in the party. What is challenging about this is that the client wants a graphic solution: instead of listing the available tables, they want a simple blueprint of the floorplan with the inappropriately sized or already reserved tables grayed out. (So it needs to update in real time.) The visitor will choose a table by clicking on it. Then the visitor enters contact info to reserve the table they have chosen. I figure some kind of PHP/XML would work for this, but I have no idea where to start. I also need an admin area in which the club managers can take reservations over the phone, and update the info on the site as well.
I’m also willing to pay a small fee for anyone who want to help with this, if need be. Thanks!
