ABSTRACT
PROJECT DESCRIPTION:
A portal for a bookstore offers users a variety of books from several
publishers.

Therefore,

implementing

with

the

web

portal

enables

organizations to share their data with each other. For example, publishers
can publish their catalog of books on the web site of the retailer. Retailers,
in turn can share the data of their customers with the publishers. In
addition to sharing data across organizations, these organizations share
the business objective of achieving success.
3. MODULES:

Administrator

Customer

4. EXISTING SYSTEM:

Time consumption.

Data maintenance is difficult.

Difficult to search the particular book.

Difficult to maintain regular customers.

5. PROPOSED SYSTEM:
This web portal for a bookstore overtakes the entire problem of
the existing system. The most important problem associated with the
existing system is to maintain the book details manually and to search for
2

a particular book. This may take some time. Also data maintaining is a
tedious job to wok with it. The customers could not know which book is
published to date and what are the latest editions are. Publishers can also
publish their books and get an acknowledgement from the users.

ACCESS CONTROL FOR DATA WHICH REQUIRE USER

AUTHENTICATION
The following commands specify access control identifiers
and they are typically used to authorize and authenticate the user
(command codes are
shown in parentheses)

USER NAME (USER)

The user identification is that which is required by the server
for access to its file system. This command will normally be
the first command transmitted by the user after the control
connections are made (some servers may require this).

PASSWORD (PASS)

This command must be immediately preceded by the user

name command, and, for some sites, completes the user's
identification for access control. Since password information is
quite sensitive, it is desirable in general to "mask" it or
suppress type out.
