Síntese do concurso

We need a highly skilled and experienced programmer to develop a script for our website in the next 5 days

The Script will that will randomly generate HTML links, from a defined table of links (in a table or database) that we manage

So for example - when the user clicks on the "next" button (that is attached to the script) they will be directed to one of the pages that we have defined in the script and this will be a random selection each time

Here is a link to a script that we are currently using (http://www.javascriptkit.com/script/cut1.shtml) - however this is no longer useful for us since it does not stop the user from seeing the same page twice, and it does not query a separate database table (so is far too time consuming to keep updated)

Essential Criteria:
1. The script generates random links to a HTML page from a defined list that we manage centrally
2. The list of available links changes every day, so the script will need to query a database or tables that we can easily manage separately
3. It is essential that this script (and button) can be replicated on many pages on our site - and therefore we need to be able to make this very flexible, so that - for example - script A, queries Table A, whereas Script B, will query table B etc
4. The script should not generate the same page twice in one visit (i.e we don't want our customers going to the same page twice in one visit)
5. The script needs to be scaleable - so that thousands of visitors can be using the site at the same time and have a seamless experience
6. It must be easy for us to code into our website (i.e cut and paste code into our html source file easily)

If you think you have the skills and experience to complete this task we would love to work with you

Let me know if you have any questions

Regards,
Nathan Davies

please create table only with table name without space (for example random3, table3)
I think you tried with 'Random 3' ... may be it gave you error in the admin panel.

Please check #6 and #7 and also see updated demo online.
#6 -- you can create a new table in the admin section itself
#7 -- showing the minor changes to do, to make the script link to a different table.

Feedback appreciated.

Please see entry #5 ... There are two tables. And you can choose the table to which link is to be inserted. See the demo on the link I gave you earlier in private comment.

One more thing I need to ask -- now we have multiple tables. Do you want the option to select which table the links come from on a given time ?

I have a question. Suppose we have 5 links in the table for now. What should happen when user has visited all 5 links ?
Should the script stop serving him pages (with a written alert message) or it should start repeating the pages then. Please reply.

  Hello,
  I think it is best if the script starts repeating the pages again after they have all been viewed once
  Does that sounds ok?

Hi, please check all screenshots attached in entry #2 and give feedback .. so I can give you demo online. I have almost done most of work. Code is entirely in PHP and opens a random url everytime when button is clicked. We can also login to admin panel where we can add new links to tables.
Waiting for your response, thanks !

Just one question -- Do you need an admin panel in back end where you can choose which table to query on a given time ? Or will you change in code ?

Good Day
Do you want a user interface to select tables or you will change it within the program ?
What are the expected deliverables ?
Thanks, Deepak

  Hello,
  
  The site administrator will update the tables. The website visitor will not have any interaction with the tables (they will just see the button)
  The expected deliverables are: The script code, a button that launches the script that can be embedded on each page of our site, and all of the the integrated back end (tables etc) that will enable the script to run
  
  Does that help at all?
  
  Regards,
  Nathan
