Hi Everyone,

I got a book from Sitepoint on learning these and am looking to do a a first project.

Someone asked me to make a search engine for a local restaurant site where the use will be able to use drop downs to search for a particular type of restaurant in their area with a price range they select.

Is this too ambitious for a first project? I'd like some opinions before I say yes.

Any advice is appreciated and thanks for all your help.

by the way, they want it to be similar to the one you can check out at http://www.toptable.co.uk/

Sounds like a really good project to learn the ropes on. Simple data structure, use of forms to bring in filtering options and then build a query based on those form values, then display the results... I like it.
