This assignment will give you an opportunity to do some CGI programming to build an interactive web application. You may work with a partner if the project is complex enough. If you work with a partner, turn in one write-up with both names and be sure to describe who did which parts of the project.

The project you select should involve some type of web application that requires reading or writing data files from within a web page and the creation of dynamic web pages. I would prefer you to implement some type of form processing application. You may use C, C++, Perl, or Java as your CGI programming language. You might consider implementing at one of the Tiny Tools from Pressman's wish list.

I would like to post a copy of your working application on the CIS 525 course page. Please e-mail me a zipped copy of your application and any related media files or give me a floppy diskette containing your application. All web references should be written assuming that all files required by your application reside in the same web directory.

Your write-up should include relevant output from your application, commented source listings of the html and CGI script files used to implement the web pages, and a 2-3 page memo describing the design and functionality of your application.
