How to build simple reviewing and 5-star rating system? [closed]

Answer 1

Yeah you're approach sounds perfect. there are a couple pieces:

stars with hover effect:

jquery: http://www.fyneworks.com/jquery/star-rating/

prototype: http://www.fyneworks.com/jquery/star-rating/

css: http://www.henryhoffman.com/css-star-rating-tutorial.html

onclick can invoke an ajax call with jquery: http://api.jquery.com/jQuery.post/

then on the server side it can be maintained in a rating table

theres a longer example here:
