The whole core of the event calendars backend will be based on OOP, so any concepts that may currently seem unclear will be more thoroughly examined as the concepts from this chapter are put into a practical, real-world example. In the next chapter, youll start building the backend of the events calendar. 118 C H A P T E R 4 ? ? ? Build an Events Calendar Now that youre up to speed on the concept of object-oriented programming, you can start working on the project that will be the meat and potatoes of this book: the events calendar. It all starts here, and as this book progresses, youll be adding more and more functionality using both PHP and jQuery. Planning the Calendar Because youre starting from absolute scratch, you need to take a minute to plan the application. This application will be database-driven (using MySQL), so the planning will take part in two stages: first the database structure and then a basic map of the application that will access and modify the database. Defining the Database Structure To make building the application much easier, the first thing you should plan is how the data will be stored. This shapes everything in the application. Feature This book is for intermediate programmers interested in building Ajax web applications using j. Query and PHP. Along with teaching some advanced PHP techniques, it will teach you how to take your dynamic applications to the next level by adding a Java. Script layer with j. Query.
