We are looking to build a travel booking XML Web Services Interface(IAN.com). The requirements are based loosely on travelnow.com, which is IAN.com\\\'s own frontend implementation to their backend. I
Platform:
R-P1) LAMP - Linux Apache2 Mysql PHP5
R-P2) Javascript using your framework of choice (yui, prototype/scriptaculous, dojo ,jquery,etc), but please no overlapping of frameworks unless you have a really good reason to.
R-P3) IAN XML Web Services backend booking system (www.ian.com)
R-P4) Effectively, a clone of travelnow.com (also uses IAN) with a better interface. travelnow.com can be used as a guideline for most functionality, but we would like some prettier javascript on the air booking interface as specified below.
Code should be maintainable and understandable. This means:
* Use tabs to make it readable!
* Name variables, functions, etc appropriately – i.e. var airline_name[]
Deliverables:
Milestones:
M1.) site framework and page layouts - 20%
M2.) site functional and working with live xml/web services interface - 30%
M3.) site functional and meeting all visual requirements - completion - remaining 50%
Functional Requirements
Funcational Requirements (Milestones 1 & 2)
Based on travelnow.com, which also uses IAN\\\'s backend (everything travelnow.com does, we can do with IAN\\\'s web services.)
Main Page:
R-F1) Simple 3 tab structure with tabs for Air, Car, and Hotel. This page should be pretty and looked web 2.0-ish.
Hotel Booking Pages
R-F2) Hotel functionality of travelnow.com.
Car Booking Pages
R-F3) Car booking functionality of travelnow.com.
Air Booking Pages
Javascript Requirments
R-F4) Results of available fares are pre-loaded into page for speed in selection (essentially, hidden with javascript) (backend returns all options, including returns - no second server hit is required to display return fares.)
R-F5) Animations in javascript framework similar to example i will provide (selected folds out, unselected fold up).
R-F6) City names should be auto complete (there are tons of examples of this all over the web).
R-F7) Based on 4 steps below(use to http://travelnow.com (which is ALSO done in IAN, but more simple looking like http://www.travelfusion.com/)
1a.) SIMPLE(subset of ADVANCED) Entering flight information into front page (to(autocomplete), from(autocomplete), date out, date in, num of adults, option to go to ADVANCED page (1b)
1b.) ADVANCED Entering flight information into front page which has all of the options available on travelfusion.com\\\'s entry page.) - ADVANCED \\\
