what is the best way to design a room hotel resveration system
is it by crating entites : reservation( room_id, start_date, end date)
or by creating entites : calender( calender_id, date), reservation(reservation_id, room_id, client_id) bookedates(reservation_id, calender_id) where to store dates of reservation
ps : it will be an onlnie reservation system so we have to show client available dates for reservation
thx

Hi,
I think the best setup is:
calender( calender_id, date)
reservation(reservation_id, room_id, client_id,calender_id)
This way you will have the max control over your database where for wach day the client reservers a record will be inserted and if x days where reserved x records will be inserted. I have applied this to a hospital reservation system and it is working excelent as I can transfer reservation, break it, or cancel it easily.

It is never about the number of languages you know, you either have the logic of programming or you don't ...
Some of the codes I post are collected from different sites during the past couple of years, so I would like to thank them for their help and for enabling me to help.
