abstract: The internet has been the most popular ways for sharing information in
recent years. As the number of publicly available site increase, the users
demand for more dynamic content has also increased. This has lead to a
proliferation of technologies available to serve up dynamic content.
Currently the school library database system has been created as a MS
Access 97 application, a stand-alone database which consists of a static site.
MS Access provides an easy user interface, but it can only be used as a
personal or single-user application and managing limited amount of data.
The objective of this project is to develop and implement a database-driven
web-based library system using MySQL (data management platform), PHF'
(server-side scripting language) and Apache (web server). The advantage of
implementing a database-driven web-based is that the unlimited access for
looking up and searching for information in the database which also known
as on-line search mechanism. An authenticated and a strict access control by
password will apply to the administrative user in editing and maintenance
operations. This system also implements a read-only, non-authentisized
interface to serve other web user which should be available on a 24x7 basis. (Author's abstract)
