This object provides you a complete DataBank for work candidates built with Dreamweaver using its native server behaviors plus some of the Felixone's extensions and some hand coding. It features areas for work candidates and for searcher companies, search engine and advanced filtering, plus an administrative area.
A deal of client Javascript
has been used for some form validation and cookies management.
In addition to some native DW's behaviors the following Felixone's extensions
are used:
FX Password Generator > Used to create a random
password when the user registers, this will be emailed to the user.
Check New Elements > Used to check Username
and Email duplicates when user registers.
Save Password Login Form > Used to create the
login interface and the Save Password functionality.
PHP X UPLOAD > Used in the Curriculum Insertion
page to upload candidate documents.
XServer Form Validator > Used to validate the
Companies form.
Mail Form > Used to contact the selected candidates.

The currdata.sql dump for MySQL is included on the package. This must be loaded on MySQL after you have created a new database with the name "currdata".
Tutorial
Before you apply this object create a new dynamic page on the root of the site and open it. Then click the object on the insert bar menu, define a welcome message if you wish and click OK. The whole application with all required files will be create in seconds. Refresh the site view to see them.
Describing the Javascript
In the javascript files
are contained all the functions to manage the some of the forms and cookies.
Assume that because of my lack of perfect English many of the fields names may
result a bit wrong but this is not relevant for the application, if you intend
to change fields names you will have to find them in the javascript code and
change it appropriately otherwise the code may fail.
Functions concern form validation, enabling/disabling of fields relatively to
options, chars uppercase, date management and some cookies handling for the
filtering, plus some used to adjust few inputs.
The date dropdowns are filled dynamically and assembled so that the date is
inserted into database in the mysql format, the process is reversed to retrieve
it when updating.
You will find a comment in case you want to change the disabled fields background
in case you change the look of the page.
It is recommended to be very careful when doing some change.
Explaining
some pages
The graphic is up to you, what you find is just an indication. Recommended to edit enabling Invisible Elements.
| inscurr | A unique
big form where the candidate inserts all the data and upload some document
as pictures, videos and pdf or doc curriculum. The form has 4 sections and
perhaps esthetically is not a great solution, I am sure you can make better,
but I prefer a one picture solution instead of sequential pages to avoid
to get lost going back and forward. The Insert code is manually retouched because when some fields are disabled values remain unset and would make fail the code. When editing watch it first because re-application will erase the adjustment. Used PHP X UPLOAD, Check New Elements and FX Password Generator. |
| updcurr | As above. Used native MX2004 server behaviors to protect. |
| candregistered | Curriculum registered. Hand coded to email password. |
| inscomp | The form for companies registration which want to access and search the bank. Used Check New Elements, XServer Form Validator. |
| updcomp | As above. Used native MX2004 server behaviors to protect, sessions names modified to not conflict with other areas. Have a look. |
| coregistered | Company registered. Hand coded to email password. |
| login | This login page is reserved to candidates which want to update the curriculum. Used native MX2004 server behaviors. Form created with Save Password Login Form. |
| access | This login page is
reserved to registered companies to access the bank for search. Used native
MX2004 server behaviors. Sessions names are adjusted to not conflict with
others login areas. Have a look. Form created with Save Password Login Form. |
| search | This is a search form. Whenever a new search is done a previous candidates filtering is reset. Used native MX2004 server behaviors to protect, sessions names modified to not conflict with other areas. Have a look. |
| results | This will display the
result of the search with clickable objects as pictures etc. The results
can be filtered by selection and the selection remains saved for later review
if no new search is done but can be reset by user. The selection remains
active even when navigating. Javascript cookies are used for this purpose.
Used native MX2004 server behaviors to protect, sessions names modified to not conflict with other areas. Have a look. |
| selected | Displays only the filtered
by selection candidates and remains saved if no new search is done. A link
to this page will appear on the menu if a saved selection exists. Javascript
cookies are used. Used native MX2004 server behaviors to protect, sessions names modified to not conflict with other areas. Have a look. |
| curriculum | This is a formal Curriculum sheet to print when clicking the Read link in the results and selected pages which includes the candidate relevant data not sensible and thumbnail picture if exists. |
| pop | A pop up window used to email to the candidate. Appears when clicking the mail object in the results and selected pages. Mail Form was used. |
Admin
All the form options are
database related so they can be updated at whish, many of these may be incorrect
in English so you can re-arrange this data. Some of them are referred in the
Javascript code for enabling/disabling fields therefore some of this changes
must be reflected in the code.
All pages are using MX2004 native server behaviors, sessions for login (log.php)
and pages protection are modified to not conflict with other areas.
In most of the pages Update and Delete code are enclosed in conditions since
they are assembled together
Ending
Once the files are created, before you proceed with your editing or test do the following.
Load the included dump to your mysql after creating a new database named "currdata", then double click the connection created in DW and insert the username and password to your mysql, if required. When you go online you will have to remake the connection using the parameters your provider assigned you.
To format birth date the format function is hand coded because normal formatting works only for dates not earlier than 1970.
Then you may proceed with
your graphic editing.
In case you want to go to deep editing for dynamics it is recommended that you
know what you are doing.
