About the Messaging System

I developed this project using the following:

• PHP
  
• MySQL Database
  
• HTML
  
• CSS
  
• JavaScript
  
• Ajax
  
• jQuery
  
• Bootstrap

This Simple Messaging System is accessible to any user. Users can simply create their accounts by filling the required fields on the registration form. In this application, the user can send messages to any registered users. Users can simply search the name or username of their recipient to select the user as the receiver of the message. In each message submitted, the sender and recipient can continue their conversation on the same subject by submitting a reply message. Messages or reply messages can only be deleted in the system by the sender. Deleting the main message will result also in removing all the replied messages.
