Assignment Topic: An Online Auction

Your task is to design an online application, with the name of "Muscat Auction", that is aimed at taking the action to the finger tips of aspiring bidders and involving a wider cross section of art lovers and antique collectors. Your site will act as an open forum where buyers and sellers can come together and exchange their products. The site will ensure that the sellers get a fair deal and buyers get a genuine product. Your application must consist of the following pages:

1. Home Page
This page opens up a door to aspiring web users. The Home page is designed in such way that the layout is as user friendly as possible. There is a navigational menu at the top of the page which links to various inner pages.

2. Login/User Registration
Those who wish to take part in bidding or selling products will have to register at this site as a seller or buyer. Only authenticated users can take part in selling or in bidding. The system should automatically reject an un-authenticated user who tries to bid or sell at the site.

3. Register Products
This page is used for presenting items for bidding. Only those who have registered and authenticated as sellers can place their articles for bidding. This module collects information like Product Name, Product Details, Starting Bid amount, Incremental value etc.

4. Bidding
This page is for bidding on any selected item. The bidder has to authenticate before participating in the bidding process. The system checks whether the incremental amount entered by the bidder is equal or more than the incremental minimum set during the product registration time. The system places the record in the bid history against the bidder account.

5. My Auction
This page is an interface for both buyer and seller. The Buyer can see the bidding history of items which are open and by which he/she has bided. Similarly, the seller can see the progress of bidding on items he/she has placed for bidding.

6. Feedback
The purpose of the page is to send messages/comments to the web administrator.

7. FAQ
This page is meant for first time users of the site. This page provides answer to questions which are common and frequently asked.

8. WebAdmin
This link opens to the administration module which is open to web administrator only. The web administrator can add product categories and edit product information like closing date. Also, there is an option for administering the closed bids. This page is for contacting the bidder and seller by email instructing them to settle the transaction within a given time frame.
