1 Introduction
1.1 Overview
The goal of this project is to create an online ride board which will store users’ travel plans, and match up
drivers with people hoping to get a ride to a similar location. The rest of this document contains an overall description of
how this program is designed to be used and installed.

2 Product Installation
2.1 Product Package Contents
To install this program, one should have this document, auth.in.php, db.inc.php, driverDisplay.php, driverEnter.php,
loginForm.inc.php, map.php, rideDisplay.php, rideEnter.php, statusPending.php and toXml.php.
2.2 System Requirements
The Online Ride-Board can be run completely through any internet server. Basically, as long as access to a
domain name or some online storage space is available, this program can be run. Users can then access the program through
their regular internet browsers.
2.3 Installation Instructions
This program has no installation required, at least no in the general sense. Because it is completely run through a
Content Management System online, all one must do to ‘install’ this program is use a File Transfer Protocol to upload the
files into the same online directory.
3 Product Use
Once this program is up and running it is really quite self-explanatory. Users go to the URL of where you have saved
the documents through their internet browser, and create usernames and profiles, plan trips and find rides through the
interface.
