Hi there
My father is a dentist and was talking to me the other day about setting up a toothbrush ordering scheme online.

Basically, he wants patients to be able to fill in there details online and then he would be able to send them a new toothbrush out every few weeks or so.

Is this possible? Any other questions? Do ask :)

Thanks
 
yes its possible, a simple html form with a php script either emailing him or saving the info to mysql database.

however, a new toothbrush every few weeks? :O thought it was one every 6 months?
 
Whilst something like this could be coded, I would think carefully about the profitability for the amount of effort involved. Yes it could be done, but is it really worth it in terms of the amount of revenue compared to the admin overhead.

Personnally i'm looking at it as something to encourage me to learn more and to widen my skills rather than looking through some tuturiols on the net and not knowing where to go from there.

If i did code something and my father decides that there is no need then i will still have got something from it :)
 
As you said, do it anyway to help you learn. If your father decides he wants to use it, bonus.

OK, fair enough. Do you know PHP? PHP and MySQL is my preferred programming environment, some help here:
