Abstract
Hwy 34 Customs, a relatively new custom auto body and repair business in the Madison area wanted to establish a web presence where their products and services could be advertised to a wide variety of people and businesses on the Internet. After an agreement was made, work began on the design and implementation of a database driven web site, which provides a user-friendly interface that anyone with an administrative user name and password can access. From within the admin controls side of the web site, an admin person can add, edit and delete inventory items and information, including pictures to display on the public side of the web site. The driving force behind the web site is ASP.net and stored procedures written in Transact SQL. There are also a few basic HTML web pages, which were build in Macromedia's Dream Weaver. Dream Weaver is also used as the FTP agent for uploading the files to a virtual domain server. The virtual domain server is a Windows 2003 server and also includes 50MB of Microsoft SQL Server 2000. A person with an admjnistrative user name and password can log on to the Admin Controls side of the web site where he can access the various areas of the site. Each area of the Adm in Controls side of the web site offer forms, which are used to interact with the SQL Server 2000 database. The ASP.net web forms collect information using parameters supplied by filling out text boxes and pass those parameters to stored procedures on the SQL Server 2000 database (Bennet Wm. McEwan, David Solomon 1997). The stored procedures use the parameters to update the database tables. More ASP.net web pages pull the information back out of the database and display the information to users on the public side of the web page.
