In our course project we will be working on a Content Management System (CMS). The principle idea is to use web technologies such as XML (and related technologies), a database, PHP and JavaScript (if necessary) to store and process (manage) information. The final `product' is not yet determined, and I am open for suggestions. I envision some system where you can display information (either personal information or information from 3rd parties through web services) to the public or to you privately.
The first step in this process is to think about information you have and their format (e.g., documents). You should discribe this information with an XML language that you should design. Please submit to me a short discussion about this analysis (decribe in words what type of information you think should be handled by your XML), and also submit to me a DTD with the syntactic rules of your XML language and an example XML file.
This part of the project is due Oct 18. Please send your files by email to tt@cs.dal.ca with the subject field ECMM601006Project1.
