I am looking into changing / improving / renewing our company website to make it more interactive. The company organises and runs outdoor activities (quad bikes, paintball, clay shooting etc) and I am the one who looks after the website.

 

My aim is to add some functionality to the site, but I lack the knowledge to know which path to take. I would like to create a system that will allow a potential customer to do the following online:

- Read a brief summary of how an event works and fits together

- Select a number of different activities that they would like to incorporate

- Select roughly how many people they are thinking of bringing along

- Enter their details (email, name, tel. no etc)

- A quotation is generated and emailed to the customer as a PDF and a copy emailed to me.

- Possibly check availability online / book online / pay online

 

I am sure this can be done (using PHP, AJAX ???) and I am more than willing to learn about the best way forward and implement the system. I just have no idea about which language / system I should be looking at.

 

Any help / guidance would be greatly appreciated.

Though I don't know much about PHP I know that would almost definately need that and SQL. I don't know if it's possible to get it to auto make it into a PDF tho.
