Looking for a little help

I am trying to create a page where students can post their resumes and alumnis can post employment opportunities. I would like both parties to view the available info. I have created web sites in the past but nothing this complicated (may be easy for all I know) I don't do this for a living but I do make some money from time to time. I am trying to help out a friend on this one. Can anyone point me in the right direction. Even a template that I can customize would be helpful. Thanks in anticipation for your help.

Hi,

To create such a system you would require the following knowledge:

PHP or .NET (ASP) and a database

Hi,

In order to create this system you will require knowledge of developing a three tier application:

A Content Management Systems normally consists of a user website, a database to store information and a secure control panel allowing to you update the information on the database. Content from the database is used to compile the information displayed on your website. The information on the database is accessed or manipulated using a programming language. In simple terms you are updating the database and your website is displaying content from the database to form your website pages. This type of system is also know as a three tier website application:

Data Tier – This is where your website information is stored.
Application Tier – This is where information is processed.
Client Tier – This is where information is displayed.

There are many different technologies available which enable a Website Content management System to be created. The most cost effective solution is a combination of the following technologies:

Mysql Database – An open source database application
Linux Server – An open source operating system
PHP Programming – An open source programming language

you can also use an open source CMS application such as:

Joomla - http://www.opensourcecms.com/index.p...k=view&id=2097

This will save you the time of coding your own application but modifying this open source can be technical and require CMS development knowledge.

Is this something that can be purchased and uploaded to a web server? It sounds to detailed to and difficult. Does anyone know if something is available? Many thanks to those of you who have replied so far.

I don't know as if something like this has already been created. Try searching Google, or even hotscripts.com. You might want to consider hiring someone else to do it, perhaps a one of the online web development bidding sites...which have all slipped my mind.
