Instructions

You have been hired as a web developer by Biag Raw, a small ill tempered man with an unfortunate name. Due to his unfriendly disposition, Mr. Raw spends most of his time alone listening to PodCasts as a substitute for genuine human contact. Mr. Raw would like for you to create a website which he can use to keep track of the PodCasts he has listened too. He would like to be able to store the title, episode number, download url, and his own notes for each PodCast and will need the ability to view, add, update, and delete PodCasts from his collection. Mr. Raw is not very technically savvy so the application will need to be friendly and easy to use, preventing him from making mistakes when entering PodCasts into the collection like forgetting to enter a required piece of information. Mr. Raw would also like to be able to search his collection by any of the information that has been stored about the PodCasts.

Mr. Raw's web hosting service, Chepo Hosting, does not provide database use to their customers so all of the data about the PodCasts will need to be stored in a text file.
