ABSTRACT
The project is to design and implement an online bookstore: Wisdom Books. The bookstore will have three types of users namely the buyers, the administrator and the suppliers. All of them will log in to the website using a unique user name and password. New users can create their profile by clicking on a link displayed on the login page. After logging in a welcome message containing the name, must be displayed for all users. The other functionality expected for each user is given in detail below.
Buyers: After logging in, the buyer will be able to view the catalogue sorted by either the author or subject. They will also be able to search for books based on the author name, subject or ISBN number and add selected books to the shopping cart. A link to the cart and the number of items in the cart and must be displayed on the right hand upper corner of each page. The shopping cart page will contain a summary of the order.
The users will be able to remove or add more books the order before making a payment. Paypal will be used to manage the Shopping cart and to deal with the payment options (PayPal Sandbox Testing environment). If the payment transaction is successful, a tracking number and receipt will be generated. The users will be able to track their shipment, based on this tracking number.
