Hi I've have some (almost) complete ASP code for a small and extremely simple recruitment site/job board I'm setting up. However, this code (and Access DB) needs tidying and tweaking, and there are a couple of bugs that need looking at. I'm getting nowhere with it - partly because of a lack of experience, and partly because of a lack of time. The main things I need doing are: 1) To add a couple more email functions to the code, for example: a function that allows jobseekers to email a job they're looking at to a friend, and another that emails the site administrator with details of all new jobs as they are posted. 2) To set up ALL email functions used in the code so that they use the JMail component (they currently use CDONTS). 3) To improve the backend administration functions. In particular, the code already collects emails - I need a function that would let me send out a newsletter to everyone on the list, and preferably a way of allowing people to sign up to different newsletter 'groups' - where each group would receive a different newsletter, plus an option to send out an email to everyone on the list. 4) To have a look at the way the code uses dates. (currently the code seems to have a problem distinguishing which jobs have expired, and which haven't - I think this may be due to US/UK date formatting). 5) To possibly establish a 'job alert' system which emails users (in real time) all new jobs that are relevant to them. I know this could be a little ambitious/expensive right now, so it could be something for the future. However, I'd just like to know roughly how much it would cost (and whether it's possible) to integrate this kind of thing into the existing code. 6) To improve the way the code searches the DB for posted jobs. Currently, it only allows one keyword - I need it to search on more than one keyword (similar to the way Google works). 7) To add another field to the table in the DB that holds posted job information. This will be a 'location' field - I need an option for agencies who are posting jobs to be able to choose a location (north-west, south east, london, etc) for each particular job from a drop-down list) 8) Finally, I'd need you to just generally look over the code and if you have any more ideas for improvements or tweaks, let me know. I know it's not a particularly glamourous task, and I know for certain that a lot of this is simple, basic stuff, but it should provide a few hours work for someone. What I don't need is the front-end design. The basics of this have already been established. All I need is complete, robust code that works - I can adapt the front end in house. Initially, I'd like a rough estimate at how much this will cost - and how long it will take - then I'll zip the code and DB and send it on to you. If the price is reasonable enough, and you have some good ideas, there could be more development work available for other projects. Cheers - and thanks in advance for your help.
