HW-6

Chapter 9 Parallel Project:

Using PHPMyAdmin create the 3 (maybe 4) tables (if you didn't do this already)

• Customer
• Product
• Order
• Line-item (possible 4th, this allows more then one item purchased per order)

Answers questions 1 through 6. Remember not to make it to big, no way near as big as the author's. I'm thinking 3 or 4 tables max.

Make me a simple web page with a screen shot of your E-R diagram from PhP MyAdmin.

Sample Tables (for example only, yours will probably differ):

• Each table should have its own ID as primary key
• Customer Table:
  • Customer ID
  • First Name
  • Last Name
  • e-mail
  • Address
• Products Table
  • Product ID
  • Price
  • Quantity In Stock
  • Description (memo)
• Order Table
  • Transaction ID
  • Customer ID
  • Product ID
  • Quantity
