Page contents change with date:
Aim:
To create page(s) in a site where the contents are served dependant on date. For example the contents might change on the first of each month. Another example would be that one lot of contents is served up to Mother’s Day (May), then another lot is served up to Father’s Day (Sept), and then still another lot is served up to Christmas.
*** WE will do the content. This project is solely for you to develop the delivery method.
*** There will probably be more than one page in the site which uses this system so it must not be page specific.
Requirements:
We need to be able to create the content, then set the dates and then simply forget about it. The way that this is done is up to you but preferred methods would be:
1) Server Side Directives
2) Conditional Comments (!!! ONLY if they work with all browsers !!!)
3) PHP (MySQL is also available if needed BUT would be strongly preferred not to use)
4) XML
5) JavaScript
6) Some other scripting
The system it will be running on is a LAMP system. The system must be able to EASILY be updated by non-technical persons with a minimum of training.
Budget:
The budget is less than $99. Very small bonuses will be paid for each of exceptional work, fast turnover time and if you have worked for me before. Maximum bonuses paid will be $12.
Can do. I'd have a calendar back-end where you can enter in events for a single day or range of days. The front end can then pull from this list whenever there is an entry. I'd be tempted to use MySQL... but if you prefer a text file or something else, I'm sure I can accommodate.
I offer 3 lines of php code without database for this task. ;) No administration but scheduling is very simple. I want bid lower price but system dont allow me. :D
