<h1>Air Alliance Sample Application - Readme</h1>
<h2>NetBeans PHP Sample Application</h2>
<p><b>Author:</b> Frank Jennings</p>
<h2>What is AirAlliance?</h2>
<p>AirAlliance is an imaginary airlines company that lets you book tickets through their web site.
This PHP application is created to highlight PHP features supported by NetBeans IDE.</p>
<h2>This sample demonstrates the following features:</h2>
<ul>
<li>Session Management</li>
<li><abbr title="Database">DB</abbr> Interaction</li>
<li><abbr title="Object Oriented Programming">OOP</abbr> Concepts</li>
</ul>
<h2>Requirements</h2>
Follow these before you run the sample:
<ul>
<li>Install NetBeans 6.1 IDE with PHP support</li>
<li>Install and configure PHP Runtime</li>
<li>Install and configure MySQL database</li>
</ul>
<h2>What is included?</h2>
<ul>
<li>NetBeans <code>PHP Application</code> Project</li>
<li>Database SQL Script - Use this script to populate tables and sample records</li>
<li>Additional Stylesheet</li>
</ul>
<h2>Before the start</h2>
<ul>
<li>If you want to try the sample out, follow <a href="#getting_started">Getting Started</a> guidelines.</li>
<li>In case of you want to try debugging features of the NetBeans IDE,
follow the <a href="#debugging">Debugging</a> guidelines.</li>
</ul>
<h2 id="getting_started">Getting Started</h2>
<ol>
<li>
Firstly, we set database authentication in <code>conf/conf.php</code>,
which is stored in Air Alliance Project directory. <br>
Just update login and password
fields in the configuration file, so they are the same as MySQL ones.
</li>
<li>
Secondly, we create the database and populate it with data:
<ol type="a">
<li>Create new MySQL database named <code>AirAlliance</code> in phpMyAdmin.</li>
<li>Run <code>sql/aadb_dump.sql</code> script stored in Air Alliance Project directory.
The script creates tables and fills them with sample data.</li>
</ol>
</li>
<li>Then we set project properties to deploy project successfully to PHP document directory:
<ol type="a">
<li>Right-click on the <code>AirAlliance</code> project node and select <code>Properties</code>.</li>
<li>Check the option <code>Copy files from Sources Folder to another location</code>.</li>
<li>In <code>Copy to Folder</code> field specify the path of your PHP documents directory (htdocs).</li>
<li>Specify the <code>Project URL</code> to be appropriate with your settings from previous field and
also with PHP Server setup.</li>
<li>Confirm the settings.</li>
</ol>
</li>
<li>
Finally, we can run the project. Right-click the project node again and select <code>Run Project</code>.
The sample PHP application should open in the Web brower.
</li>
<li>Click View Itinerary link in the right pane. You should see some records shown from the database.</li>
<li>Play futher with the sample:)</li>
</ol>
<h2 id="debugging">Debugging</h2>
<ol>
There steps should enable you the debugging option at the sample project, <b>if you already have PHP debugger
installed and configured</b>.<br>
For demonstrating the PHP debugger in NetBeans we have to put the sample project to the PHP documents directory (htdocs):
<li>Create new <code>Air Alliance Sample Application</code> with following settings:</li>
<li>Set the Project Folder to your PHP documents (htdocs) directory, for example:
<code>...\Apache2.2\htdocs\AirAlliance\</code></li>
<li>In project properies (Right-click the project node and select <code>Properties</code>.) set the <code>Project URL</code>
to be appropriate with previous setting, for example: <code>http://localhost/AirAlliance/web/</code></li>
<li>To debug, right-click the project node and select <code>Debug Project</code>.</li>
</ol>
<h2>Project folder's structure</h2>
<ul>
<li><b>classes</b> - Contains some helper classes highlighting Object Oriented Programming.</li>
<li><b>conf</b> - Contains the PHP file (Conf.php) from where you can edit the DB Connection settings.</li>
<li><b>css</b> -Contains the stylesheet used for the website.</li>
<li><b>include</b> - Conains header/footer/navigation PHP files for the web site.</li>
</ul>
