PHP is a must, one of my friends did a social networking site as his 4th engg project. Has all of orkut's basic features. Just php and html.

Do you want to hand-code it yourself? If yes, then you MUST know atleast PHP and Javascript. Ofcource you need to know (X)HTML and CSS!

Else, there are many free and readymade engines.

You can do it with most server side languages like ASP, ASP.NET or PHP along with XHTML, CSS and Javascript. Server side languages are not limited to PHP. Orkut itself is a ASP.NET Application, but ya, implementing ASP.NET based solutions is not free.

^Even I thought that orkut is ASP.net but then I just thought, what if the server is set to handle .aspx pages using PHP interpreter :D

Also, I think they use a proprietary database program, BigTable I think!

:D Very funny yaar, but check the source code of the pages, they contain a lot of the javascript code "generated" by the asp.net engine. So they are actually using the real thing i guess. As for the database, ya they have a proprietry solution, though i dunno the name.

BTW, how are you man ? :)

3) Get the reg no of the student and try to fetch it from the database appending the reg no you got into the WHERE clause of SQL query.
Hope you know POST request and SQL/database concepts.

4) You know how to make a login system? Use sessions to register sessions. keep the name of the user logged in the array of SESSION.


I strongly think you should tell your proficiency in PHP. Esp tell us how much you know in Sessions, POST/GET requests, Database management, Cookies?
