Calendar/booking script

[Zhris]

Hello,

I have recently been given the task to supply a script (preferably in PHP or Perl), which allows users to book a specific period of time aboard a boat. My clients requirements are very specific and i'm struggling to find a pre-coded script which fufills atleast some of the key requirements. Plan B would be to code it myself from scratch, but i'm on a strict deadline, and i'm hoping to find a free script.

Here are the key requirements:
- There are 2 types of users: clients and the general public, with different rules applying to them.
- Clients can book from 1 hour up to 1 week aboard.
- The general public can book from 1 hour to 12 hours aboard.
- There must be no boarding the boat between 7pm and 7am.
- Clients and the general public can bring 1 guest each.
- There must never be more than 5 people aboard at a given time.
- The general public must book atleast 7 days in advance, whilst clients must book atleast 24 hours in advance.

I can imagine it would be something similar to a flight booking system.

If anyone could suggest any ideas, or a script to check out, I would be very grateful.

Thank you,

Chris

Your client's requirements are very strict - that is normal but who has set the deadline?

Hey,

I am working for a client who has decided to travel by boat across the UK promoting and selling his products and services. I was only aware of this the day of posting, and am due in 7 days time to go aboard to set up other things. As he begins his "tour" the day I board, I really need to have this running by this time.
I have written some very rough pseudo code as a guide, however I am finding it hard to get to grips with the overall structure of such a script.

You may be lucky finding a pre made script but writing and testing one in 7 days is a very tall order.
Good luck any way.
