Page to generate listing of students
April 21, 2012 05:55PM
""This page presents a listing of all courses – when clicking on a course, it shows a list of all the students registered for that course.""

The list of all the students
is it just their name, surname or
does this mean every bit of info from of that student?

I was also wondering this for both the class list pages and the student manager page, because with all the details it makes for a very big table. Would it be ok to just have name and student number in a table list and a 'view more' button if the administrator wants to view all the details of that student? Just to keep things neater?

I don't think what student information being displayed is the point.
As Mac will know if you can display the Name and Surname, you will be able to display the rest.

The think he wants to see, is if you are able to compile a list of all the various courses, and once clicked on the course name if you can call up a list of student names and surnames which will be attending the class.

Right mac?

Hi man,

if this answers your question, I use the same function to call up a form to register and update students info.

eye popping smiley you know for course_man.php and list.php when it says

""The Add a new course link ""

can it be a button/form ? (the link)
or is it like a blue text underline a href thing?

At first I used a href tags....as it would save you a lot of code.
But when read through the tutorial letter, it went on about using forms etc.

Then I asked the same question on these forums...and if I understood correctly you should use forms.

So that is what I did...

I have forms all over the place.

and for list.php
is it ok to do this for eg

lets say your course name = MATHS
so when i click on maths its shows the student numbers for those who took maths and another option to open up a specific student number for rest of info?

like this

MATHS {view students} <---- click that

then open

show the sno for maths and next to it the open up option to see the rest of student number 1 spinning smiley sticking its tongue out

sno 1 {show rest of student info}
sno 2 {show rest of student info}
sno 3 {show rest of student info}
sno 4 {show rest of student info}

The link is merely an <a href> to a form.

The Add a new course link is a simple <a href that you use to open the form that you use to edit.

Well, an <a href link points to a page that contains the form.

Is it wrong if you have a form containing 2 submit buttons, which calls the add and delete functions?

Thus not using hrefs...but merely skipping the link to a page with the form.

You can use what you want... the reason for this requirement was to let you understand the difference between $_POST and $_GET

Ok I understand. I'm using $_GET somewhere else in my app, though just a small bit.

Hopefully I won't be losing stupid points...*holding thumbs*
