Is a Web Database Application a good area for a final year project?

Question

It would be a relatively basic one in the sense that it would be converting from a static website to a dynamic website where users would need to register and pay to login to use services on the website........is this considered complex enough for a final year project???

Answer 1

Check with your tutor - but I'd say its fine for your end of year college project (age 18).

Answer 2

Take opinion of your tutor.

I think its more than enough. I did something like this for a college project before graduating. Just make sure you know what you are doing.

If you want something truly dynamic you may need to work with JavaScript + a scripting language such as PHP / ASP.net

In order to do the shopping cart you can use paypal. You have to go to their website and read their tutorials, but in short it goes like this:

<form action="paypal_url">

<input type="hidden" name="dolls_quantity" value="2" />

<input type="hidden" name="dolls_price" value="11.99" />

<input type="hidden" name="dolls_label" value"A cool doll" />

</form>

When the user subits that form they will be taken to the paypal shopping cart that you will have already set up.

See https://www.paypal.com /cgi-bin/webscr? cmd=_wp-pro-overview-outside for more info

If this looks like something you can do then go for it. If you read the papal website tutorials and still dont get it you may want to re-think your project.
