Just as an FYI, open ended all encompasing questions like this generally don't get a lot of help because, well, they sound like the author is trying to get someone to write something for them. That really goes against the purpose of this site, which is to help people learn.

That said, what have you tried so far? What way's are you considering (since you've said that you're unsure of the best way). Have you banged out any code yet? From my expierence, when you're sitting there with no code and you're unsure about the best direction, put your fingers on the keyboard and start typing.

You're not going to get there unless you start someplace. Then when you have some semblence of an idea of how this might be accomplished, come back and ask some more specific questions.

But as of right now, the only thing that anyone could really offer is to say "use CGI", "I'd use a database", "no, I'd use flat files", "why not store it in XML", etc... And from reading your question it's not apparent if you're having trouble with design methodology, syntactical structure or any of the other slew of roadblocks you could hit along the way.
