My client wants to build a tourist site and for that he wants a backoffice for the map and the ability to draw polygons on the map (that user can see). When the user clicks on a polygon, he gets a list of files he can download (pdf , images etc...)

I'm using OpenLayers as a map client and haven't decided on the server side yet (probably GeoServer).

What is the best way to plan this? To where should I save the polygons and file list (shp file ? database ?)

thx

Could you please add more details? How many polygons are you expecting? The files would be brochures are other promotional materials regarding that polygon? – R.K. Nov 26 '12 at 1:39
There is raster map of an area (country). On that map the owner draws polygons (from 10 to 1000) and each polygon is represents a tourist area (monuments , parks , etc...) When the user click the polygon (or point) he should see list of files that were uploaded using the Backoffice (files are links to PDF,JPG) and he can right click and save as... the files. Files are indeed promotional materials regarding the polygon. – Alophind Nov 26 '12 at 5:17
