Greetings,

I am currently working on version 1.0.4 of the phpmylibrary project. I hope 
I would be able to finish it soon. About the circulation module,
that module makes you add, delete, etc. users. After that when they(user) 
log-in they will be able to just click the accession number you provided in 
the cataloging module. Once they clikced that, they already borrowed the 
book and then, the librarian will then counter checked it in transaction 
module. the transaction module makes you check-in and check out, renew, deny 
  the book,

I am hoping that in version 1.0.4, I could make it more user friendly.

Also, I would like to make some favor to you. If I already released the 
version 1.0.4 I would be glad if you could make scripts that will enable 
version 1.0.3 user upgrade their database on version 1.0.4. I think that 
would not be difficult for you because you already know how we extracted the 
isis files. I know I could do that but I have so many scripts to code in 
version 1.0.4.

About this ^ sign, it has been used because most records, or data do not use 
that sign frequently, you can use other sign/sysmbol provided  that it is 
distinct, perhaps you could use $ sign, if your records do not use dollar 
sign while encoding. this ^ or $ are use for extracting data. If you have 
two words that has ^ between them, the you would find to separate word if 
you will extract it. like polerio^hbabao, if you will explode it in php, you 
would have two, the polerio and hbabao, now if you will use (, comma) 
sysmbol, what if you have a words like babao, polerio,thewordismyname  if 
you would explode it with php, you would get three words. now if you want to 
change it, choose a sysmbol which is distinct.

On the source codes  that I had given to you, you would see how I extracted 
the records that has ##, $, etc...


1.0.1.3?

About the button to click, we know that one book can have a multiple copy, 
which in turn gives multiple accession number. With this in mind while 
programming, I have made the borrowing of book by the user be done on just 
clicking the accession number. Now, if you don't provide the accession 
number of that book, user will not be able to borrow the books becuase it 
doesn't have a accession number.

Thank you for using the software.

'til then.
