<div class="descriptionheading">Overview</div>

The storage application collects the id,name,address and email from a form and sends it to the api which promptyl creates a new customer.<br><br>

<div class="descriptionheading">storeCustomer</div>

The function called <span class="interestingdescription">storeCustomer</span> is executed by the onclick event of the form at the bottom of the code. 

The click event is useful for things such as processing form data after a mouse click on a button/image/div/span etc.

The $.ajax function is part of the jQuery api and sends a POST request to booking/makecustomer_XML.php which adds a customer to the database.

 The data from the form (for example <span class="interestingdescription">customerID</span>) is retrieved to a set of variables that are then sent to the api.

<br><br>

<div class="descriptionheading">ResultCustomer</div>

The other function <span class="interestingdescription">ResultCustomer</span> is called automatically by jQuery when the data has been returned. 

<br><br><div class="descriptionheading">booking/makecustomer_XML.php</div>

MakeCustomer makes an insert to the database. The function makes no checks on the data, and if any error occurs, the error message is returned as a status message.<br>
