db connection problem, and field/tablename issues

Posted by on 26 Apr 2010 in Activity Log

HR having problems establishing an maintaining a connection to the DB. It appears to be a problem with the ordering of code that initializes variables and includes of files that assign values to those variables. Also, she requested a listing of all the tables and field names, so I generated an SQL structure-only file and sent that to her.

Capital Trials at the Old Bailey

Simon Devereaux has approximately 10,000 records of people convicted in potentially capital cases between 1710 and 1840 in London heard at the Old Bailey court. This project will create a web-based database which will allow interested researchers and members of the public to compose queries on that data (e.g. women charged with robbery 1710-1720). It must be able to support a range of queries and produce output allowing researchers to identify trends in judicial practice over that time.
