I am creating a website for a photocompany. They would like thier

customors to be able to upload thier digitalphoto's via the internet and

order an amount of prints.



1. If a customer is sending his digitalphoto's a popup window should

show the uploading process in percentages and bytes.

2. When the customer has finished uploading his digitalphoto's he

should be able to look at an analysis of the photo's which have been

uploaded.

3. The browser should list the uploadedfiles.

4. If the customer clicks on an uploadedfile he must see the photo,

filesize and fileresolution.

4. The brouwser should also report if the digitalphoto is a legal

format and if the quality is bad, resonable or excellent preferably with

color indications.

5. When the customer has been informed of the size and the quality

he should be able to choose a printsize and the quantity for foto that he

would like printed.

6. Choosing the printsize the browser should report the quality

color of the photo (red/bad, yellow/resonable, green,excellent) in each

format.

7. Finally the customer should be able to see the price of each

photo, the totaal price, the chosen format, and the name before conforming

his order.

8. If the customer should return to the site he should be able to

see his previous orders.



I have no programing skills and I am using ASPupload. to upload the files. 

I'm curently reading the book beginning asp3.0 hoping to make thes points 

possible. Does anyone have any input on how I should do this.

Congratulations.  You are on the right track, using the right software and 

reading the right book.



However, when writing to a foum like this, be careful not to effectively 

ask someone to do the job for you - for free.  Such request are rarely 

appreciated.



You are putting together a professional site with some very specific 

requirements, most of which are beyond your confessed current 

capabilities.  Maybe you should subcontract someone to do the work while 

you are getting up to speed (never say "no, I cant do that" to a client).



Be warned:  You wont get the job done in a week and to fully understand 

asp from no programming skills, the learning curve is steep.  I have a phD 

in cosmology, and I found it hard.  Great fun, but hard, largely because 

of the inconsistencies of the asp architecture, that come from trying to 

make it too easy.



Ultimately, you will end up programming aspx pages (ASP.NET).  The .NET 

framework is much more concise and logical, is not plagued by language 

legacies of bygone technologies and does not suffer from the limitations 

of a script language mixed with html like it was the mince in a spagetti 

bolognaise.



Have fun.
