Milestone 1 (due in Week 7)
Demonstrate that you are able to use master pages to define a consistent look across your website.
Milestone 2 (due in Week 8)
Demonstrate that you are able to use ASP.NET validator controls to validate users’ input.
Milestone 3 (due in Week 9)
Demonstrate that you are able to create a login system in which only logged users are able to visit specific pages.
Milestone 3 (due in Week 10)
Demonstrate that you are able to deal with asynchronous HTTP requests (Ajax).
Milestone 4 (due in Week 11)
Demonstrate that you are able to view, update, insert and delete data through your website.
Final Demonstration (due in Week 12)
You are required to demonstrate your Project as a whole in the lab session you are allocated to. Please be aware that marking is mainly based on what you demonstrate in your lab. No demonstration no marks. You must upload your source code as well after the demonstration.
Key Criteria:
Be able to create a website with a consistent look
Be able to create a login system in which only logged users have access to specific pages
Be able to validate users’ input
Be able to implement Ajax form submission
Be able to display, insert, edit, and delete data through your website
Project Requirements:
IMS is an IT consulting firm who wants to create a web-based inventory management system so as to help its clients manage their inventory anywhere anytime. The functional requirements are listed below:
1. There is a login page. Only authorized users are able to view and update the inventory. Unauthorized users do not have access to the inventory management system to view and update the inventory.
2. There is a navigation menu directing authorized users to the corresponding pages according to the operations they want to carry out.
3. Authorized users are able to view the inventory. The system will list the items stocked and generate pagination if necessary.
4. Authorized users are able to update the description and model number for a selected item.
5. Authorized users are able to add a new item into the inventory.
6. Authorized users are able to remove an existing item from the inventory.
7. Authorized users are able to update the stock for a selected item, either increase the stock by a specific number or decrease the stock by a specific number.
8. The system will validate users’ input before making any changes in the database. For example, if a user wants to decrease the stock by X even the existing stock is less than X, the system will give an error message and ask the user retype the number.
9. Implement Ajax functionality so that changes will be displayed immediately without refreshing the entire page.
Besides the functional requirements mentioned above, you are also required to fulfil the following requirements:
1. Give your website a consistent look
2. Design your website taking the user experience into consideration
3. This is a business system, please avoid using methods like GET method that are not safe. Also, please validate users input on client-side and server side both.
4. There may be dozens of files in your Project, please take some time to organize your files and folders (such as put all files with the same type into the same folder)
5. Please give your files and variables meaningful names instead of Default, TextBox1, etc.
6. Remember, write comments to explain the key parts of your code.
