Hi!
First, I'm not a programmer and I'm new in web site development. I'm a psychology student in Costa Rica and I have minimum programming skills (maybe some java), but I want to learn, I'll take the challenge ;)
I'm going to develop a site for used books exchange at my college, so I need to do this:
1. User enters book, short description, price, and email in different input fields. click submit button.
2. That info automatically generates a list that shows (and updates with each book submitted) in the main page:
Book, Short description, Price -I'm interested button-
if somebody clicks that button automatically send me an email with the email of the interested user and the book's name (and creates a private list, a database, for my eyes only, in some place with interested users and their respective books).
So the first (main) page of the site looks like this:
---BOOK EXCHANGE---
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
Bookinputfield, Short descriptioninputfield, Priceinputfield, inputfieldinputfield, submit button
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Book1, Short description, Price -I'm interested button-
Book2, Short description, Price -I'm interested button-
Book3, Short description, Price -I'm interested button-
Book4, Short description, Price -I'm interested button-
------------------------------------------------------------------------
It doesn't need subscription or anything like that, I want to keep it very simple.
1. What do I need to do this? (I'm learning Dreamweaver CS3)
2. What is the best way to do this?
3. Do you reccommend to use Joomla or another CMS for this project?
4. What I have to learn?
5. Comments?
Many thanks in advance I really appreciate your help!!!!!!! ;D
