Hi there,
I have been asked by my rowing club to build a new website for them. I'm fine doing the design and the "basic" stuff in Dreamweaver (I'm using CS5) but I'm struggling to get my head around how to build the availability section.
What we need as a club is:
- An area where rowers can log in
- They can then update what dates and sessions they available to row on
- Administrators can log in and update what sessions are taking place and when (date / time)
- On a set cut-off point every week (say Wednesday night) the site then examines availability for the next week and fires off an email to certain people (e.g. coaches, captains etc) and let's them know exactly who is available at what time
- Even better would be for it to sort them into boats (such as an eight or a four) based on what side the rower can row on.
I can't even begin to get my head around this. Are there any Spry scripts that anyone knows of that would help out? Or is it simply a case of me manning up, sticking my head into a book about php or something similar and working out how to get such a database together?
Many thanks in advance for any advice you may be able to give me!
