hello reader..
i am developing a website.
One of the web's page is PRODUCT page where user can view, or purchase the item. There are 3 categories under PRODUCT which are; pet, gardening and food..
I'd like to implement user preferences in this page. User will pick its preferences via check boxes. For example, if she chose pet and gardening, any item available in mysql about pet & gardening will appear in the user's PRODUCT page. Meanwhile, if the user isn't a registered user, products of food/ pet/ gardening will appear randomly.
The questions are:
1) HOw should i create the table? Stuff all user info and preferences in USER table or make them in chuncks. 4 tables( user, pet, food, gardening)
2) overall, how to code the idea? i browsed tru hundreds of forums, but couldn't find any that suits the idea
Pls help. TQ ;)
