asp_web_howto thread: Final price calcuation for a resort

Hi my name is Ricardo Hernandez. And I am working at a resort place in
italy. I want to impress my boss with a page in which the users can enter
the start date and end date they plan to stay in the resort. The system
should calculate the final price. However there are some complications
because we divided the year in three different seasons. And each season
has a different set of prices.Which means the customer may want to get the
final price for days that correspond to the winter and the spring season
which have different rates.
If you have some ideas or some code I can modify can be greatly
appreciated.

well ricardo,
From scratch?????
Well....
Your lucky I'm bored....
this is just a start...
hasn't been dubugged and there is a lot more needed,
but you should get the idea
write now it will work as long as they start in the first season, and don't
stay for more than a year, but you need to think about things like that...

Thank you for your prompt response. I am going to try it to utilize your
