1 table that has 4 fields
-TransID
-Used
-Date
-IP
an admin form -that allows me to enter TRANSIDs into the table
a user form that asks for transaction ID --
check to see if USER ID exists
if it doesnt - prompt it does not exist
if the ID exists - Used is checked for true of false
IF false the user is prompted if they want to USE the ID
If they say yes -- the value of Used is set to TRUE, datestamped and IP stamp added and they are redirected to a new URL
IF True then promted that this ID has already been used
It would be nice to be able to have a query just show all the data results of the table
Should be a simple job - You can probably have this done in 10 minutes if you have a login script.
I have MSSQL and not MYSQL
XML is fine if you want to use that.
code can be php, asp or asp.net
