CSCI 4000 Final Project
The main programming language for this project should be PHP (mixed with HTML and CSS). If you do not use PHP, you will get 0 points. You must use PDO (PHP Data Object) to interface with the MySQL database.
If you do not use PDO, you will receive 0 points for all questions. JavaScript can be used, but the main mathematics calculations must be done in PHP (or 0 points will be awarded). When you are asked to save data to database for retrieval, you must save data to database and retrieve it (or 0 points will be awarded).
When you see “Richard Ricardo” or “richardricardo” in the examples and screen captures, change it to <your name.
When you see “Richard” or “richard” in the example screen captures, change it to <your first name.
If you do not put <your name / <your first name in the above mentioned fields, you will get 0 points for the question(s).
No two students should submit webpages with exactly the same code, content, layout, or color combination. If found, both students will get 0 points.
Create a folder on your hard disk, name the folder lastname_firstname_final_exam. Save all the files from this project in this folder.
Use XAMPP web server solution stack package to help debugging PHP code. It will make your debugging process easier. All php files must not produce any error, or any warning (-2 points for each error, each warning). Your program must run. A program that does not run will get 0 points. All files must begin with a comment that identifies the author, the course code, and the program date (- 2 points each question if found missing). All html, css and php files must be clearly documented (commented). Points will be taken off (-2 points each question) for insufficient comments (<!-- --, /* */, //).
Before adding PHP code, all html files must pass html validation at http://validator.w3.org/ without any
error (and with only 1 warning).
· When you view page source in a web browser, <!DOCTYPE html must be at the top of every page
(except php only pages). In other words, all html pages must be written in HTML5. (-20 points if not)
o You can put php code before <!DOCTYPE html.
o You cannot put html code before <!DOCTYPE html.
· All css files must pass css validation at http://jigsaw.w3.org/css-validator/ without any error. (-2 points for each error/warning, only 1 warning is allowed for html validator)

o the user should be directed to richard_ricardo_clear_table.php.
o richard_ricardo_clear_table.php uses richard_ricardo_database.php to connect to the database.
o all records will be deleted from the database table “coordinate3d”.
o number of records removed will be shown.
o user can follow a link to go back to index.php.
Example: richard_ricardo_clear_table.php (if there are records) Example: richard_ricardo_clear_table.php (if there is no record) Example: richard_ricardo_database.php (shows nothing)
