You may assume that I will test the scripts by installing the PHP scripts at server location ''/student_id/''. I would appreciate it if your zip file followed this convention. However, your scripts should use relative addressing and you should not assume anything about where your application will be installed. Avoid the use of absolute URIs in the ''action'' attribute in any forms and ''href'' attribute in any anchors. CSS styling and JavaScript is not required, but if provided, the files must be external and located in the same folder as the PHP files, or in suitably named subfolders (e.g. scripts, style, images, etc). Use relative addressing in the associated ''<img>'', ''<link>'' and ''<script>'' tags. |
