1.Abstract
The librarians have to work allotted for arranging, sorting books in the
book sells. At the same time, they have to check and monitor the lend/borrow book details
with its fine. It is a tedious process to work simultaneously in different sectors. LMS will
assist the librarians to work easily. The LMS supports the librarians to encounter all the
issues concurrently. The users need not stand in a queue for a long period to return/borrow
a book from the library. The single PC contains all the data' s in it. The librarians have to
assess the system and provide an entry in it. Through LMS the librarian can find the book
in the bookshelves. The LMS is designed with the basic features such as librarian can
add/view/update/delete books and students' details in it. Once he/she ingress into the system
they can modify any data' s in the database.

CHAPTER-2
REVIEW OF INFORMATION
The work was split into three areas: front-end design, back-end design actions and mobile
application. The front-end design was done using HTML, PHP, CSS is used to provide
actions to the controller and the application is deployed in a virtual eliminator. The work
was split in this manner because it gets easy to develop a separate layer of the system. The
back-end design was done using MYSQL database for storing users and admins data.
Initially the web-service was assigned as part of the website development.
This report is divided into several sections that include background chapter which reviews
general web application development, requirement analysis that covers user requirements
for the web application, design and implementation chapters that covers mobile
development, user testing and evaluation, future work and conclusion which includes a
discussion of certain problems encountered in the project.

Introduction
Web pages can be created using HTML, also called as the Internet language. HTML
is the acronym for Hypertext Markup Language. Hypertext refers to the content in a Web
page that includes text, pictures and sound.
HTML is an improved version of Standard Generalized Markup Language (SGML).
Tim Berners-Lee at Cern designed the original HTML document type in 1990. In 1992, Dan
Connolly wrote the HTML Document Type and a brief HTML specification. Since 1993, cross-
sections of people have contributed to the evolution of the HTML specification. Finally, in
1994, Dan Connolly and Karen Olson Muldrow rewrote the HTML specification.
Mosaic was the first Web browser and was developed by the National Centre for
Supercomputing Applications (NCSA) at the University of Illinois at Urbana- Champaign.
Microsoft Internet Explorer was created based on this NCSA Mosaic Browser.
4.1 Html
What is HTML?
HTML is the standard markup language for creating Web pages. HTML stands for Hyper
Text Markup Language. It specifies the following
➢ HTML describes the structure of Web pages using markup
➢ HTML elements are the building blocks of HTML pages
6
➢ HTML tags label pieces of content such as “heading”, “paragraph”,
“table”, and so on
➢ Browsers do not display the HTML tags, but use them to render the content
of the page
The definition of HTML is Hyper Text Markup Language.
➢ Hyper Text is the method by which you move around on the web - by
clicking on special text called hyperlinks which bring you to the next page. The
fact that it is hyper just means it is not linear - i.e. you can go to any place on the
Internet whenever you want by clicking on links - there is no set order to do things
in.
➢ Markup is what HTML tags do to the text inside them. They mark it as a
certain type of text (italicized text, for example).
Prerequisites:
You will need a text editor, such as Notepad and an Internet browser, such as
Internet Explorer or Netscape.
Q: What is Notepad and where do I get it?
A: Notepad is the default Windows text editor. On most Windows systems, click
your Start button and choose Programs then Accessories. It should be a little blue
notebook.
Mac Users: SimpleText is the default text editor on the Mac. In OSX use Text Edit
and change the following preferences: Select (in the preferences window) Plain text
instead of Rich text and then select Ignore rich text commands in HTML files. This
is very important because if you don’t do this HTML codes probably won’t work
One thing you should avoid using is a word processor (like Microsoft Word) for authoring
your HTML documents.
7
letter extensions. It is perfectly safe to use either .html or .htm, but be consistent.
mypage.htm and mypage.html are treated as different files by the browser.
How to View HTML Source
A good way to learn HTML is to look at how other people have coded their html pages. To
find out, simply click on the View option in your browsers toolbar and select Source or
Page Source. This will open a window that shows you the actual HTML of the page. Go
ahead and view the source html for this page.
HTML Tags
What are HTML tags?
HTML tags are used to mark-up HTML elements
HTML tags are surrounded by the two characters < and>
The surrounding characters are called angle brackets
HTML tags normally come in pairs like <b> and </b>
The first tag in a pair is the start tag, the second tag is the end tag
The text between the start and end tags is the element content
HTML tags are not case sensitive, <b> means the same as <B>
Physical tags were invented to add style to HTML pages because style sheets were
not around, though the original intention of HTML was to not have physical tags. Rather
than use physical tags to style your HTML pages, you should use style sheets. HTML
Elements
8
Remember the HTML example from the previous page:
<html>
<head>
<title>My First Webpage</title>
</head>
<body>
This is my first homepage. <b>This text is bold</b>
</body>
</html>
This is an HTML element:
<b>This text is bold</b>
The HTML element begins with a start tag: <b>
The content of the HTML element is: This text is bold
The HTML element ends with an end tag: </b>
The purpose of the <b> tag is to define an HTML element that should be displayed as bold.
This is also an HTML element:
<body>
This is my first homepage. <b>This text is
bold</b> </body>
This HTML element starts with the start tag <body>, and ends with the end tag </body>.
The purpose or the <body> tag is to define the HTML element that contains the body of
the HTML document.
Nested Tags
You may have noticed in the example above, the <body> tag also contains other tags, like
the <b> tab. When you enclose an element in with multiple tags, the last tag opened should
be the first tag closed. For example:
<p><b><em>This is NOT the proper way to close nested tags. </p></em></b>
<p><b><em>This is the proper way to close nested tags. </em></b></p>
Note: It doesn’t matter which tag is first, but they must be closed in the proper order.
9
You may notice we’ve used lowercase tags even though I said that HTML tags are not case
sensitive. <B> means the same as <b>. The World Wide Web Consortium (W3C), the group
responsible for developing web standards, recommends lowercase tags in their HTML 4
recommendation, and XHTML (the next generation HTML) requires lowercase tags.
Tag Attributes
Tags can have attributes. Attributes can provide additional information about the HTML
elements on your page. The <tag> tells the browser to do something, while the attribute tells the
browser how to do it. For instance, if we add the bgcolor attribute, we can tell the browser that
the background color of your page should be blue, like this: <body bgcolor=” blue”>. This tag
defines an HTML table: <table>. With an added border attribute, you can tell the
browser that the table should have no borders: <table border=”0”>. Attributes always come
in name/value pairs like this: name=”value”. Attributes are always added to the start tag of
an HTML element and the value is surrounded by quotes.
Basic HTML Tags
The most important tags in HTML are tags that define headings, paragraphs and line breaks.
10
Headings
Headings are defined with the <h1> to <h6> tags. <h1> defines the largest heading while
<h6> defines the smallest.
<h1>This is a heading</h1>
<h2>This is a heading</h2>
<h3>This is a heading</h3>
<h4>This is a heading</h4>
<h5>This is a heading</h5>
<h6> This is a heading</h6>
HTML automatically adds an extra blank line before and after a heading. A useful
heading attribute is align.
<h5 align=”left”>I can align headings </h5>
<h5 align=”center”>This is a centered heading </h5>
<h5 align=”right”>This is a heading aligned to the right </h5>
Paragraphs
Paragraphs are defined with the <p> tag. Think of a paragraph as a block of text. You can
use the align attribute with a paragraph tag as well. <p align=”left”> This is a
paragraph</p>
<p align=”center”>this is another paragraph</p>
Important: You must indicate paragraphs with <p> elements. A browser ignores any
indentations or blank lines in the source text. Without <p> elements, the document becomes
one large paragraph. HTML automatically adds an extra blank line before and after a
paragraph.
11
Line Breaks
Comments in HTML
<p>This html comment would <!-- This is This html comment would be displayed
a comment--> be displayed like this.</p like this.
12
Logical Tags Physical Tags Tag Description
<sup>
Defines superscripted text
<sub> Defines subscripted text
A character entity has three parts: an ampersand (&), an entity name or an entity number,
and finally a semicolon (;). The & means we are beginning a special character, the ; means
ending a special character and the letters in between are sort of an abbreviation for what it’s
for. To display a less than sign in an HTML document we must write: < or < The
advantage of using a name instead of a number is that a name s easier to remember. The
disadvantage is that not all browsers support the newest entity names, while the support for
entity numbers is very good in almost all browsers.
Non-breaking Space
The most common character entity in HTML is the non-breaking space Normally
HTML will truncate spaces in your text. If you add 10 spaces in your text, HTML will
remove 9 of them. To add spaces to your text, use the character entity.
HTML Fonts
The <font> tag in HTML is deprecated. The World Wide Web Consortium (W3c) has
removed the <font> tag from its recommendations. In future versions of HTML,
14
style sheets (CSS) will be used to define the layout and display properties of HTML
elements.
The <font> Tag Should NOT be used.
HTML Backgrounds
Backgrounds
The <body> tag has two attributes where you can specify backgrounds. The background
can be a color or an image.
Bgcolor
The bgcolor attribute specifies a background-color for an HTML page. The value of this
attribute can be a hexadecimal number, an RGB value, or a color name:
<body bgcolor=”#000000”> <body bgcolor=”rgb(0,0,0)”> <body
bgcolor=”black”> The lines above all set the background-color to black.
Background
The background attribute can also specify a background-image for an HTML page. The
value of this attribute is the URL of the image you want to use. If the image is smaller than
the browser window, the image will repeat itself until it fills the entire browser window.
<body background=”clouds.gif”>
<body background=”http://profdevtrain.austincc.edu/html/graphics/clouds.gif”>
The URL can be relative (as in the first line above) or absolute (as in the second line above).
If you want to use a background image, you should keep in mind:
Will the background image increase the loading time too much?
Will the background image look good with other images on the page?
Will the background image look good with the text colors on the page?
Will the background image look good when it is repeated on the page?
Will the background image take away the focus from the text?
15
HTML Colors
Color Values
Colors are defined using a hexadecimal notation for the combination of red, green, and blue color values
(RGB). The lowest value that can be given to one light source is 0 [hex #00]. The highest value is 255 (hex
#FF). This table shows the result of combining red, green, and blue:
Color Color RGB
#000000 rgb(0,0,0)
#0OFF00 rgb(0,255,0)
#O000FF rgb(0,0,255)
#FFFFOO rgb(255,255,0)
#00FFFF rgb(0,255,255)
#FFOOFF rgb(255,0,255)
#COCOCO rgb(192,192,192)
#FFFFFF rgb(255,255,255)
Color Names
A collection of color names is supported by most browsers. To view a table of color names
that are supported by most browsers visit this web page
16
16 Million Different Colors
The combination of red, green and blue values from 0 to 255 gives a total of more than 16
million different colors to play with (256 x 256 x 256). Most modern monitors are Capable
of displaying at least 16,384 different colors. To assist you in using color schemes.
HTML Lists
HTML provides a Simple way to show unordered lists (bullet lists) or ordered lists
(numbered lists).
Unordered Lists
An unordered list is a list of items marked with bullets (typically small black circles). An
unordered list starts with the <ul> tag. Each list item starts with the <li> tag.
Ordered Lists
An ordered list is also a list of items. The list items are marked with numbers. An ordered
list starts with the <ol> tag. Each list item starts with the <li> tag.
Definition Lists
Definition lists consist of two parts: a term and a description. To mark up a definition list,
you need three HTML elements; a container <dl>, a definition term <dt>, and a definition
description <dd>.
HTML Links
HTML uses the <a> anchor tag to create a link to another document or web page.
The Anchor Tag and the Href Attribute
An anchor can point to any resource on the Web: an HTML page, an image, a sound file, a
movie, etc. The syntax of creating an anchor:
<a href=”url”>Text to be displayed</a>
The <a> tag is used to create an anchor to link from, the href attribute is used to tell the
address of the document or page we are linking to, and the words between the open and
close of the anchor tag will be displayed as a hyperlink.
17
The Target Attribute
With the target attribute, you can define where the linked document will be opened. By
default, the link will open in the current window. The code below will open the document
in a new browser window:
<a href=http://www.austincc.edu/ target=” _blank”>Visit ACC! </a>
Email Links
To create an email link, you will use mailto: plus, your email address. Here is a link to
ACC’s Help Desk:
<a href=”mailto:helpdesk@austincc.edu”>Email Help Desk</a>
To add a subject for the email message, you would add? subject= after the email address.
For example:
<a href- “mailto:helpdesk@austincc.edu?subject=Email Assistance”>Email Help Desks/a>
HTML Images
The Image Tag and the Src Attribute
The <img> tag is empty, which means that it contains attributes only and it has no dosing tag.
To display an image on a page, you need to use the src attribute. Src stands for “source”. The
value of the src attribute is the URL of the image you want to display on your page.
18
The alt attribute tells the reader what he or she is missing on a page if the browser can’t load
images. The browser will then display the alternate text instead of the image. It is a good
practice to include the alt attribute for each image on a page, to improve the display and
usefulness of your document for people who have text-only browsers or use Screen readers.
Image Dimensions
When you have an image, the browser usually figures out how big the image is all by
itself. If you put in the image dimensions in pixels however, the browser simply reserves
Space for the image, then loads the rest of the page. Once the entire page is loads it can go
back and fill in the images. Without dimensions, when it runs into an image, the browser
has to pause loading the page, load the image, then continue loading the page. The chef
image would then be:
Tables
Tables are defined with the <table> tag. A table is divided into rows (with the <tr> tag),
and each row is divided into data cells (with the <td> tag). The letters td stands for table
data, which is the content of a data cell. A data cell can contain text, images, lists,
paragraphs, forms, horizontal rules, tables, etc.
Headings in a Table
Headings in a table are defined with the <th> tag.
This code Would Display
19
Cell Padding and Spacing
The <table> tag has two attributes known as cell spacing and cellpadding. Here is a table example without
these properties. These properties may be used separately or together.
Table Tags Tag Description
CSS is the language tor describing the presentation of Web pages, including colors,
layout and fonts. It allows one to adapt the presentation to different types of devices, such
as large screens, small screens, or printers. CSS is independent of HTML and can be used
with any XMI-based markup language. The separation of HTML from CSS makes it easier
to maintain sites, share style sheets across pages, and tailor pages to different environments.
This is referred to as the separation of structure (or: content) from presentation.

3.2 PHP:
PHP started out as a small open source project that evolved as more and more people found
out how useful it was. Rasmus Lerdorf unleashed the first version of PHP way back in 1994.
• PHP supports a large number of major protocols such as POP3, IMAP, and LDAP.
PHP4 added support for Java and distributed object architectures (COM and
CORBA), making n-tier development a possibility for the first time.
• PHP performs system functions, i.e. from files on a system it can create, open, read,
write, and close them.
• PHP can handle forms, i.e. gather data from files, save data to a file, through email
you can send data, return data to the user.
• You add, delete, modify elements within your database through PHP.
• Using PHP, you can restrict users to access some pages of your website.
21
Characteristics of PHP
• Simplicity
• Efficiency
• Security
• Flexibility
• Familiarity
In order to develop and run PHP Web pages three vital components need to be installed on
your computer system.
• Web Server − PHP will work with virtually all Web Server software, including
Microsoft's Internet Information Server (IIS) but then most often used is freely
available Apache Server. Download Apache for free here
− https://httpd.apache.org/download.cgi
• Database − PHP will work with virtually all database software, including Oracle and
Sybase but most commonly used is freely available MySQL database. Download
MySQL for free here − https://www.mysql.com/downloads/
• PHP Parser − In order to process PHP script instructions a parser must be installed
to generate HTML output that can be sent to the Web Browser. This tutorial will
guide you how to install PHP parser on your computer.
Before you proceed it is important to make sure that you have proper environment setup
on your machine to develop your web programs using PHP.
http://127.0.0.1/info.php
If this displays a page showing your PHP installation related information then it means
you have PHP and Webserver installed properly. Otherwise, you have to follow given
procedure to install PHP on your computer.
22
This section will guide you to install and configure PHP over the following four platforms
To install Apache with PHP 5 on Windows follow the following steps. If your PHP and
Apache versions are different then please take care accordingly.
• Extract the PHP binary archive using your unzip utility; C:\PHP is a common
location.
• Copy some .dll files from your PHP directory to your system directory (usually C:\
Windows). You need php5ts.dll for every case. You will also probably need to
copy the file corresponding to your Web server module - C:\PHP\Sapi\
php5apache.dll. to your Apache modules directory. It's possible that you will also
need others from the dlls subfolder.but start with the two mentioned previously and
add more if you need them.
• Tell your Apache server where you want to serve files from and what extension(s)
you want to identify PHP files (.php is the standard, but you can use .html, .phtml,
23
or whatever you want). Go to your HTTP configuration files (C:\Program Files\
Apache Group\Apache\conf or whatever your path is), and open httpd.conf with a
text editor. Search for the word Document Root (which should appear twice) and
change both paths to the directory you want to serve files out of. (The default is C:\
Program Files\Apache Group\Apache\htdocs.). Add at least one PHP extension
directive as shown in the first line of the following code −
• You may also need to add the following line Add Module mod_php5.c
• Stop and restart the WWW service. Go to the Start menu → Settings → Control
Panel → Services. Scroll down the list to IIS Admin Service. Select it and click
Stop. After it stops, select World Wide Web Publishing Service and click Start.
Stopping and restarting the service from within Internet Service Manager will not
suffice. Since this is Windows, you may also wish to reboot.
• Open a text editor. Type: <?php phpinfo(); ?>. Save this file in your Web server's
document root as info.php.
• Start any Web browser and browse the file.you must always use an HTTP request
(http://www.testdomain.com/info.php or http://localhost/info.php or
http://127.0.0.1/info.php) rather than a filename (/home/httpd/info.php) for the file
to be parsed correctly
You should see a long table of information about your new PHP installation message
Congratulations!
Apache Configuration
If you are using Apache as a Web Server then this section will guide you to edit Apache
Configuration Files.
The PHP configuration file, php.ini, is the final and most immediate way to affect PHP's
functionality.
24
Just Check it here − PHP.INI File Configuration
To configure IIS on your Windows machine you can refer your IIS Reference Manual
shipped along with IIS.
Apache uses httpd.conf file for global settings, and the .htaccess file for per-directory
access settings. Older versions of Apache split up httpd.conf into three files (access.conf,
httpd.conf, and srm.conf), and some users still prefer this arrangement.
Apache server has a very powerful, but slightly complex, configuration system of its own.
Learn more about it at the Apache Web site − www.apache.org
The following section describe settings in httpd.conf that affect PHP directly and cannot
be set elsewhere. If you have standard installation then httpd.conf will be found at
/etc/httpd/conf:
Timeout
This value sets the default number of seconds before any HTTP request will time out. If
you set PHP's max_execution_time to longer than this value, PHP will keep grinding away
but the user may see a 404 error. In safe mode, this value will be ignored; you must use the
timeout value in php.ini instead
DocumentRoot
DocumentRoot designates the root directory for all HTTP processes on that server. It
looks something like this on Unix −
DocumentRoot./usr /local/apache_1.3.6/htdocs.
AddType
The PHP MIME type needs to be set here for PHP files to be parsed. Remember that you
can associate any file extension with PHP like .php3, .php5 or .htm.
25
AddType application/x-httpd-php .php
AddType application/x-httpd-phps.phps
AddType application/x-httpd-php3 .php3 .phtml
AddType application/x-httpd-php .html
Action
You must uncomment this line for the Windows apxs module version of Apache with
shared object support −
or on Unix flavors −
AddModule
You must uncomment this line for the static module version of Apache.
AddModule mod_php4.c
The PHP configuration file, php.ini, is the final and most immediate way to affect PHP's
functionality. The php.ini file is read each time PHP is initialized.in other words,
whenever httpd is restarted for the module version or with each script execution for the
CGI version. If your change isn.t showing up, remember to stop and restart httpd. If it still
isn.t showing up, use phpinfo() to check the path to php.ini.
The configuration file is well commented and thorough. Keys are case sensitive, keyword
values are not; whitespace, and lines beginning with semicolons are ignored. Booleans can
be represented by 1/0, Yes/No, On/Off, or True/False. The default values in php.ini-dist
will result in a reasonable PHP installation that can be tweaked later.
Here we are explaining the important settings in php.ini which you may need for your
PHP Parser.
short_open_tag = Off
26
Short open tags look like this: <? ?>. This option must be set to Off if you want to use
XML functions.
safe_mode = Off
If this is set to On, you probably compiled PHP with the --enable-safe-mode flag. Safe
mode is most relevant to CGI use. See the explanation in the section "CGI compile-time
options". earlier in this chapter.
safe_mode_exec_dir = [DIR]
This option is relevant only if safe mode is on; it can also be set with the --with-exec-dir
flag during the Unix build process. PHP in safe mode only executes external binaries out
of this directory. The default is /usr/local/bin. This has nothing to do with serving up a
normal PHP/HTML Web page.
safe_mode_allowed_env_vars = [PHP_]
This option sets which environment variables users can change in safe mode. The default
is only those variables prepended with "PHP_". If this directive is empty, most variables
are alterable.
safe_mode_protected_env_vars = [LD_LIBRARY_PATH]
This option sets which environment variables users can't change in safe mode, even if
safe_mode_allowed_env_vars is set permissively
A welcome addition to PHP4 configuration and one perpetuated in PHP5 is the ability to
disable selected functions for security reasons. Previously, this necessitated hand-editing
the C code from which PHP was made. Filesystem, system, and network functions should
probably be the first to go because allowing the capability to write files and alter the
system over HTTP is never such a safe idea.
max_execution_time = 30
27
The function set_time_limit() won.t work in safe mode, so this is the main way to make a
script time out in safe mode. In Windows, you have to abort based on maximum memory
consumed rather than time. You can also use the Apache timeout setting to timeout if you
use Apache, but that will apply to non-PHP files on the site too.
The default value is E_ALL & ~E_NOTICE, all errors except notices. Development
servers should be set to at least the default; only production servers should even consider a
lesser value
error_prepend_string = [""]
With its bookend, error_append_string, this setting allows you to make error messages a
different color than other text, or what have you.
warn_plus_overloading = Off
This setting issues a warning if the + operator is used with strings, as in a form value.
variables_order = EGPCS
This configuration setting supersedes gpc_order. Both are now deprecated along with
register_globals. It sets the order of the different variables: Environment, GET, POST,
COOKIE, and SERVER (aka Built-in).You can change this order around. Variables will be
overwritten successively in left-to-right order, with the rightmost one winning the hand every
time. This means if you left the default setting and happened to use the same name for an
environment variable, a POST variable, and a COOKIE variable, the COOKIE variable would
own that name at the end of the process. In real life, this doesn't happen much.
register_globals = Off
This setting allows you to decide whether you wish to register EGPCS variables as global.
This is now deprecated, and as of PHP4.2, this flag is set to Off by default. Use
superglobal arrays instead. All the major code listings in this book use superglobal arrays.
gpc_order = GPC
28
This setting has been GPC Deprecated.
magic_quotes_gpc = On
This setting escapes quotes in incoming GET/POST/COOKIE data. If you use a lot of
forms which possibly submit to themselves or other forms and display form values, you
may need to set this directive to On or prepare to use addslashes() on string-type data.
magic_quotes_runtime = Off
This setting escapes quotes in incoming database and text strings. Remember that SQL
adds slashes to single quotes and apostrophes when storing strings and does not strip them
off when returning them. If this setting is Off, you will need to use stripslashes() when
outputting any type of string data from a SQL database. If magic_quotes_sybase is set to
On, this must be Off.
magic_quotes_sybase = Off
This setting escapes single quotes in incoming database and text strings with Sybase-style
single quotes rather than backslashes. If magic_quotes_runtime is set to On, this must be
Off.
auto-prepend-file = [path/to/file]
If a path is specified here, PHP must automatically include() it at the beginning of every
PHP file. Include path restrictions do apply.
auto-append-file = [path/to/file]
If a path is specified here, PHP must automatically include() it at the end of every PHP
file.unless you escape by using the exit() function. Include path restrictions do apply.
include_path = [DIR]
If you set this value, you will only be allowed to include or require files from these directories.
The include directory is generally under your document root; this is mandatory if you.re
running in safe mode. Set this to . in order to include files from the same directory
29
your script is in. Multiple directories are separated by colons:
.:/usr/local/apache/htdocs:/usr/local/lib.
doc_root = [DIR]
If you.re using Apache, you.ve already set a document root for this server or virtual host in
httpd.conf. Set this value here if you.re using safe mode or if you want to enable PHP only
on a portion of your site (for example, only in one subdirectory of your Web root).
file_uploads = [on/off]
Turn on this flag if you will upload files using PHP script.
upload_tmp_dir = [DIR]
Do not uncomment this line unless you understand the implications of HTTP uploads!
session.save-handler = files
Except in rare circumstances, you will not want to change this setting. So don't touch it.
ignore_user_abort = [On/Off]
This setting controls what happens if a site visitor clicks the browsers Stop button. The
default is On, which means that the script continues to run to completion or timeout. If the
setting is changed to Off, the script will abort. This setting only works in module mode,
not CGI.
mysql.default_host = hostname
The default server host to use when connecting to the database server if no other host is
specified.
mysql.default_user = username
The default user name to use when connecting to the database server if no other name is
specified.

3.3 XAMPP:
XAMPP stands for Cross-Platform (X), Apache (A), MySQL (M), PHP (P) and Perl (P). It is a
simple, lightweight Apache distribution that makes it extremely easy for developers to create a
local web server for testing purposes. Everything you need to set up a web server – server
application (Apache), database (MySQL), and scripting language (PHP) – is included in a
simple extractable file. XAMPP is also cross-platform, which means it works equally well on
Linux, Mac and Windows. Since most actual web server deployments use the same
components as XAMPP, it makes transitioning from a local test server to a live server is
extremely easy as well. Web development using XAMPP is especially beginner friendly.
1. Apache: Apache is the actual web server application that processes and delivers web
content to a computer. Apache is the most popular web server online, powering nearly 54%
of all websites.
3. PHP: PHP stands for Hypertext Preprocessor. It is a server-side scripting language that
powers some of the most popular websites in the world, including WordPress and
Facebook. It is open source, relatively easy to learn, and works perfectly with MySQL,
making it a popular choice for web developers.
31
How to install XAMPP?
Step 1:
Install XAMPP
Step 2:
Assume you installed xampp in C Drive. Go to C:\xampp\htdocs. Create your own folder,
name is for example as “web tech”.
Step 3:
Now create your first php program in xampp and name it as “add.php”.
Step 4:
Now double click on “XAMPP CONTROL PANEL” on desktop and START “APACHE”.
Step 5:
Type localhost on your browser and press enter it will show the following:

SYSTEM STUDY
4.3.1 INTRODUCTION:
The objective behind developing this Online Library Management System project is to build a
system which can maintain the work of the library on the web based application. This software
will contain the features by using of which the library becomes smart and any user will get the
information regarding the library instantaneously. This will help the librarian in maintaining the
detail of available books in the library while a student can check the availability of the required
books. The Online Library Management System project will be web based so the user can
access the details of books without going to the library.
The first step in system development life cycle is the identification of need of change to
improve or enhance an existing system. An initial investigation on existing system was
carried out. The present system of library is completely manual. Many problems were
identified during the initial study of the existing system.
System analysis is a detailed study of the various operations performed by a system and
their relationships within and outside of the system. Here the key question is – What all
problems exist in the present system? What must be done to solve the problem? Analysis
begins when a user or admin begins a study of the program using existing system.
In the available Online Library Management System, librarian maintains the details of each
book on the registers so to find out the number of books available in the library they need to
go to check the entire entry which makes the process slow. While they need to spend an
extra hour to maintain the records of books. For a student who wants to know about a book
in the library need to search the entire book section. The student needs to check the status
of the book means the last date of books; how many books has issued.
36
System analysis can be categorized into five parts:
The proposed Online Library Management System project will help the students and librarian
to maintain the details of the library. It will assist the librarian before the shortage of books
while they can know the details of the number of currently available in the library according to
the author by accessing the system. A student can view the details of the book issued by them,
and the system will notify the students about the last date of submission of books. At the time
of issue of a book, the student will get assisted by the system about different authors of a
similar book so that they can get the best available book from the library.

CHAPTER-5
DESIGN
DFD can represent Source, destinations, storage and flow of data using the following set of
components-
Data Flow
Entity Process
Data Store
Entities - Entities are source and destination of information data. Entities are represented
by rectangles with their respective names.
Process - Activities and action taken on the data are represented by Circle or Round edged
rectangles.
Data Storage - There are two variants of data storage - it can either be represented as a
rectangle with absence of both smaller sides or as an open-sided rectangle with only one
side missing.
Data Flow - Movement of data is shown by pointed arrows. Data movement is shown from
the base of arrow as its source towards head of the arrow as destination.

5.2.ER- DIAGRAM:
Entity
Entities are represented by means of rectangles. Rectangles are named with the entity set
they represent.
Attributes
Attributes are the properties of entities. Attributes are represented by means of ellipses.
Every ellipse represents one attribute and is directly connected to its entity (rectangle)If the
attributes are composite, they are further divided in a tree like structure. Every node is then
connected to its attribute. That is, composite attributes are represented by ellipses that are
connected with an ellipse).
Relationship
A relationship where two entities are participating is called a binary relationship. Cardinality is
the number of instance of an entity from a relation that can be associated with the relation.
One-to-one − When only one instance of an entity is associated with the relationship, it is
marked as '1:1'. The following image reflects that only one instance of each entity should
be associated with the relationship. It depicts one-to-one relationship.
One-to-many − When more than one instance of an entity is associated with a relationship,
it is marked as '1:N'. The following image reflects that only one instance of entity on the
left and more than one instance of an entity on the right can be associated with the
relationship. It depicts one-to-many relationship.
43
Many-to-one − When more than one instance of entity is associated with the relationship,
it is marked as 'N:1'. The following image reflects that more than one instance of an entity
on the left and only one instance of an entity on the right can be associated with the
relationship. It depicts many-to-one relationship.
Many-to-many − The following image reflects that more than one instance of an entity on
the left and more than one instance of an entity on the right can be associated with the
relationship. It depicts many-to-many relationship.

5.3.USE CASE DIAGRAMS:
A use case diagram in the Unified Modelling Language (UML) is a type of behavioural
diagram defined by and created from a Use-case analysis. Its purpose is to present a
graphical overview of the functionality provided by a system in terms of actors, their goals
(represented as use cases), and any dependencies between those use cases. Use Case
diagrams are formally included in two modelling languages defined by the OMG: the
Unified Modelling Language (UML) and the Systems Modelling Language (SysML)
45
5.4. CLASS DIAGRAM:
• The bottom part gives the methods or operations the class can take or undertake.
In the system design of a system, a number of classes are identified and grouped together in
a class diagram which helps to determine the statistical relations between those objects.
With detailed modeling, the classes of the conceptual design are often split in a number of
subclasses.
46
5.5. ACTIVITY DIAGRAM:
47
5.6. SEQUENCE DIAGRAM:
Sequence diagrams are a popular dynamic modeling solution in UML because they
specifically focus on lifelines, or the processes and objects that live simultaneously, and the
messages exchanged between them to perform a function before the lifeline ends. Along
with our UML diagramming tool, use this guide to learn everything there is to know about
sequence diagrams in UML. A sequence diagram is a type of interaction diagram because it
describes how—and in what order—a group of objects works together. These diagrams are
used by software developers and business professionals to understand requirements for a
new system or to document an existing process. Sequence diagrams are sometimes known
as event diagrams or event scenarios.

TESTING

CHAPTER-7
TESTING
7.1 INTRODUCTION:
Software testing methods are traditionally divided into white- and black-box testing. These
two approaches are used to describe the point of view that a test engineer takes when
designing test cases.
White box testing is when the tester has access to the internal data structures and algorithms
including the code that implement these.
Grey box testing (American spelling: grey box testing) involves having knowledge of internal
data structures and algorithms for purposes of designing the test cases, but testing at the user, or
black-box level. Manipulating input data and formatting output do not qualify as grey box,
because the input and output are clearly outside of the "black-box" that we are calling the
system under test. This distinction is particularly important when conducting integration
71
testing between two modules of code written by two different developers, where only the
interfaces are exposed for test. However, modifying a data repository does qualify
as grey box, as the user would not normally be able to change the data outside of the system
under test. Grey box testing may also include reverse engineering to determine, for
instance, boundary values or error messages.
Testing levels:
Tests are frequently grouped by where they are added in the software development process,
or by the level of specificity of the test.
1) Unit Testing- Unit testing refers to tests that verify the functionality of a specific
section of code, usually at the function level. In an object-oriented environment, this is usually
at the class level, and the minimal unit tests include the constructors and destructors These
types of tests are usually written by developers as they work on code (white-box style), to
ensure that the specific function is working as expected. One function might have multiple
tests, to catch corner cases or other branches in the code. Unit testing alone cannot verify the
functionality of a piece of software, but rather is used to assure that the building blocks the
software uses work independently of each other. Unit testing is also called component testing.
2) Integration Testing- Integration testing is any type of software testing that seeks to verify
the interfaces between components against a software design. Software components may be
integrated in an iterative way or all together ("big bang"). Normally the former is
considered a better practice since it allows interface issues to be localised more quickly and
fixed. Integration testing works to expose defects in the interfaces and interaction between
integrated components (modules). Progressively larger groups of tested software
components corresponding to elements of the architectural design are integrated and tested
until the software works as a system.
3) System Testing - System testing tests a completely integrated system to verify that it
meets its requirement
72
4) System Integration Testing- System integration testing verifies that a system is integrated
to any external or third-party systems defined in the system requirements.
5) Regression Testing - Regression testing focuses on finding defects after a major code
change has occurred. Specifically, it seeks to uncover software regressions, or old bugs that
have come back. Such regressions occur whenever software functionality that was
previously working correctly stops working as intended. Typically, regressions occur as an
unintended consequence of program changes, when the newly developed part of the
software collides with the previously existing code. Common methods of regression testing
include re-running previously run tests and checking whether previously fixed faults have
re-emerged. The depth of testing depends on the phase in the release process and the risk of
the added features. They can either be complete, for changes added late in the release or
deemed to be risky, to very shallow, consisting of positive tests on each feature, if the
changes are early in the release or deemed to be of low risk.
8) Beta Testing - Beta testing comes after alpha testing. Versions of the software, known as
beta versions, are released to a limited audience outside of the programming team. The
software is released to groups of people so that further testing can ensure the product has
few faults or bugs. Sometimes, beta versions are made available to the open public to
increase the feedback field to a maximal number of future users.
73
9) Non-Functional Testing - Special methods exist to test non-functional aspects of software.
In contrast to functional testing, which establishes the correct operation of the software
(correct in that it matches the expected behaviour defined in the design requirements), non-
functional testing verifies that the software functions properly even when it receives invalid
or unexpected inputs. Software fault injection, in the form of fuzzing, is an example of non-
functional testing. Non-functional testing, especially for software, is designed to establish
whether the device under test can tolerate invalid or unexpected inputs, thereby establishing
the robustness of input validation routines as well as error-handling routines. Various
commercial non-functional testing tools are linked from the software fault injection page;
there are also numerous open-source and free software tools available that perform non-
functional testing.
10) Software Performance Testing and Load Testing - Performance testing is executed to
determine how fast a system or sub-system performs under a particular workload. It can
also serve to validate and verify other quality attributes of the system, such as scalability,
reliability and resource usage. Load testing is primarily concerned with testing that can
continue to operate under a specific load, whether that be large quantities of data or a large
number of users. This is generally referred to as software scalability. The related load
testing activity of when performed as a non-functional activity is often referred to as
endurance testing. Volume testing is a way to test functionality. Stress testing is a way to
test reliability. Load testing is a way to test performance.
11) There is little agreement on what the specific goals of load testing are. The terms load testing,
performance testing, reliability testing, and volume testing, are often used interchangeably.
12) Stability Testing - Stability testing checks to see if the software can continuously function
well in or above an acceptable period. This activity of non-functional software testing is
often referred to as load (or endurance) testing.
13) Usability Testing- Usability testing is needed to check if the user interface is easy to use
and understand.
74
14) Security Testing -Security testing is essential for software that processes confidential data
to prevent system intrusion by hackers.

CHAPTER-9
FUTURE SCOPE
It has a facility of teacher’s login where teachers can add lectures notes and also
give necessary suggestion to library and also add info about workshops or events happening
in our college or nearby college in the online notice board. There is a future scope of this
facility that many more features such as online lectures video tutorials can be added by
teachers as well as online assignments submission facility, a feature of group chat where
students can discuss various issues of engineering can be added to this project thus making
it more interactive more user friendly and project which fulfils each user need in the best
way possible.
1. The Library Management system enables Librarians to keep track of available books.
2. The Library Management System can easily keep track of Library users.
3. The Library Management System makes it easier for the librarian to track those
who have borrowed books and have not returned them.
