CIS 430
Semester Project--Spring 2006

Due 5/4.

Create a sample e-Commerce site. Your site should model the demo site for Fred's Faucets and should include the following:

• Note:  Your page should work correctly in Internet Explorer because some scripting features may not be supported by Firefox.
• All pages should be XHTML compliant.
• Include a CSS page that all other pages depend on for uniform appearance.
• Include a main form with links to all product lines (bar faucets, kitchen faucets, bathroom faucets, and showerheads) as well as to an About Us page, a privacy policy page, a contact form page, and a search feature (see demo).  Of the product line pages, only the Bathroom Faucets page needs to work. 
• The Bathroom Faucets page should include a line of thumbnails of bathroom faucets (available from the linked zip file) which, when the mouseover event occurs, display a full-size image of the faucet (also available from the linked zip file) in the space below, along with a description.  Use this page as an example.  As with the class exercise, all images should be preloaded.
• When the user clicks on an image the item should be added to a shopping cart.  (I used Mal's.)
• The Contact form should allow entry of customer details (name, address, city/state/zip, telephone, eMail, and country) as well as customer comments or questions (see demo).  All mail should be sent to parkerkr@cob.isu.edu, so you will have to sign up with Form Mail or a similar service.
• The Contact Form should set a cookie on user system, called "Fred" and then your name, so if your name is Adams the cookie would be Fred Adams.  You may want to experiment with Javascript cookies.
• The About Us and Privacy Policy pages should include plausible information like an actual company would include.
• You should include a site search feature.  Free tools are available at FusionBot, FreeFind, PicoSearch, and others.  Just do a  search for "Site Search".
• When the user clicks on an image on the products page, it should add the product to a shopping cart.  Use the features provided by Mal's e-commerce.
• Your site should also offer
  • Shipping calculation 
  • PayPal Web Services
  • Many of these services are available through Mals or are available as web services.

More requirements may be forthcoming.

Here are some images for you to use, including the new logo.
