Someone wishes to develop a site using PHP/SQL .
Here are the specs:
The site the client is looking for is not a gaming site.
It is a site where players register to keep track of their winnings on
GAMING sites. It will have a freeroll side(where players get points not
money) and a Money tour side where players will win money and points.
This site will request (GET) data from the gaming sites for the registered
members and compile(POST) the info into the db. A number of queries will
need to be set up ie.
top 10 - 20 - 50 for free roll
top 10 - 20 - 50 for money tour
List of registered members by date registered
List of registered members by points earned
List of registered members by money won
List of registered members by last name alphabetacally
We should also have a db of all the poker sites which we could concatenate
with other queries.
ie. registered members placements in xxxpokerroom.com etc.
I hope all this makes sense to you. Let me know if any of this is not doable.
P.S. They want to able to administer to the site themselves... We could
set up a secure sign in and allow them access to the CGI bin through html
pages or shtml pages. Not too familiar with the CMS side of things for
something like this.
end of client request.
How doable is this and what Can I use in the process?
SQL options are MySQL and PostGresQL.

Yes, this is doable, but do you have permission to query the results on the
gaming sites? I should think they would be very reluctant to release that
information.
PostGreSQL would let you do subqueries, so some operations will be a little
simpler.
So -- yes you can do it, using PHP - Ruby - Python - Perl or ??? What's the
real question?
