Expanding the Conference Database in HTML/PHP

Preface

As with previous lab examples, examples for this HTML/PHP script are taken from accepted papers from SIGCSE 2008. In a few cases, the status of a paper is listed here as "submitted" rather than "accepted" to provide a better example. Independent of the information reported here, all papers were accepted and are included in the SIGCSE 2008 Proceedings, available through the ACM Digital Library.
