Online reservation system (basic)

[Morlan]

Has anybody any experience developing a basic reservation system? A client of mine owns a few guest houses and wants cutomers to be able to check availabilty and reserve rooms.

Just looking for some pointers on how to go about it. Build from scratch or perhaps build over some sort of open source package..

Thanks guys.

Hope this helps in someway

Thanks Chief.

I'm not too handy on the PHP yet so I'd be really looking for something open source that I can customize. But I'd love to know more PHP, I'm definately going to start cramming some skills.

BTW, have you seen the pic in the bottom of that link?

I've found this opensource software so far. Seems like it might do the job.

Anyone any other suggestions?
