I want to build a STATE - EVENT mapping tool for pages, in PHP, which
allows the selection of various functions in a page object depending on
what part of a mulitipart transaction between a page(application) has
been returned by a user.
I.E., a user information page, credit card verification, user page
layout preferences, primary interests from site obviously related to
gettting a new customer, and all off of one URL with a session keeping
track of where the customer is in getting all this information. The
pages generated all contain hidden variables or cookies from the user
explain where the user was last in the sequences of interactions for
this page/application.
('visual' replies to view for the page designer)
If the user backs up 3 pages, what to do? Have a visually, premapped
response.
If the user comes back after session expires, but session has not been
flushed yet,
have a visually premapped response.
If the user page gets corrupted and doesn't have the hidden variable, or
somebody
tries something funny, have a visually premapped response.
If the user submits the credit card purchase twice, have a visually
premapped response.
I envision doing this with a forms input, HTML page. Each of the sets of
'CURRENT CUSTOMER INTERACTION STATE' and 'PAGE EVENT RETURNED' would be
mapped to a set of functions, including the order they were to be
executed in. These functions could process data, clear fields in
databases, requery, generate different page layouts, update different
parts of a frame, etc. . The layout of this page for designing this
page/application would be like Harel's STATE-CHART(tm) or like an
excel(tm) page on a web page.
You can see some preliminary work, (just display, no functionality) at:

=====================================================================================
My question:
If this 'page builder' has been given the names of various local or
remote files containing individually edited functions to assemble into
an object, how can this script running on the remote server either
upload all the local files, or access all the remote files (local to the
script) and assemble them into a complete PHP script?
I.E., how do the write permissions of the script/server/etc allow the
script to delete, create, or edit a file on the server?
I plan on doing a non JAVA version first, but this practically cries out
for some JAVA to speed it up.
