About this site

ZCE Project - Zend™ Certified Engineer

zceProj1.1 Started 1st August 2007

The purpose of this site is to create and submit a website as part of my Computeach course

The site has been hand written by myself using Notepad++ and combines PHP with XHTML, CSS and MySQL. There was a Microsoft Access Database provided which will also be incorporated into the site in order to satisfy the content requirement. However the majority of the site is running on a MySQL database

Before submitting the project I will ensure that the entire site passes XHTML1.0 transitional and CSS level 2.1 validation. Links are also provided in the footer across the site
