Hello, I am a COMPLETE newbie to PHP and mySQL. I however have picked to work on a project which requires me to learn these 2 technologies.
I am basically trying to build a scheduling system for Tutors and Students in my University. For this I need an SQL database which holds FREE TIME SLOTS only and, effective views and interfaces.
A tutor has suggested I use a pattern, MVC (Model/View/Controller).
Could I get some advice on how I can start on such a project and also how I can use the MVC pattern (and hopefully some explanation of why the pattern is useful at all) in the mentioned project. Also maybe an example of an application which uses the MVC pattern??
Any help would be greatly appreciated
Thank you
