Hi, I’m spending my Fridays at the moment looking at the course support notes for the new Higher and trying to devise a course, whilst not clear on everything, most of it seems ok (ish) however does anyone have any idea what it means when talking about a web-based database structure – does it mean NoSQL? Otherwise I’m completely lost!

A website with a database in it.
We’ll use a bit of Dreamweaver to create the website and MySQL for the database. We’ll use Dreamweavers server behaviours to allow the creation of record sets and handle the php side of things. Probably using XAMPP but this is the gray area for me as I have used MAMP on my own mac laptop and will require support from the council’s IT service for an installation for pupil use.
Should be exciting and relevant for pupils.

Oh, that’s simple, had thought it might be a completely new type of structure that I had somehow missed. Thanks for that! Yeah, the ever fun issue of software!
