Admin and DataVis Component Descriptions
Michael Black

Overview
    
        There are three main files that deal with the admin and datavis portion of
    the project: home.php, export.php, and view.php. All of these files are
    located within the admin/ directory on the web and are password protected
    using .htaccess and .htpasswd files.
        All the other php files that this portion of the project relies on are
    located within the common utility directory in the main directory of the
    webpage.

home.php

        This is the main homepage of the admin and datavis site. It will allow the
    user to change the password, view the current election results, and download
    the current election results. It only relies on the DatabaseInterface.php
    file to retrieve the name of the election.

export.php

        This file will allow the user to save the election as an excel
    spreadsheet. A window will popup asking the user to save the file. It
    relies on DatabaseInterface.php to retrieve election information. It
    also uses Constants.php in order to use the constants stored in that file.
        It only has one big function in which it loops through the results and
    places all the information in the excel spreadsheet.

view.php

        This file allows the user to graphically view the current progress of an
    election. It also relies on DatabaseInterface.php and Constants.php to
    gather information about the election.
        It again has one large loop that goes through the current results and
    outputs html to create bar graphs for users to see. It will also have such
    information as time remaining for the election, number of votes submitted
    already, and number of users currently logged on.
