I've begun to create the professor ratings page that I plan to complete for the final module. Here, I use javascript to display the form or hide the form depending on user input. If someone has javascript deactivated, those buttons do not appear (so as not to confuse them when they wouldn't work anyway). Hope you like it! I plan to build on this for the next module.

With the advancement of technology like WordPress, building your own website is pretty easy nowadays. It is often advisable to build a website using your name as the domain name and turn that website into your digital resume to accelerate your career development. Read More

Well, I doubt any of you are going to be *quite* ready for this, it would be a pretty impressive Mod 7 project :).

Included challenge 4-f and 4-g into a single page - allows user to post comments and see the existing comments from previous users.

The textboxes are a little odd.... but it works!

This brings you to the guestbook for my gluten-free pizza crust page.

Seems to be eating the last part of my URL. Is the VARCHAR big enough to hold big urls? Or is it something else? Be nice if the URLs were links (e.g., for the name). Nice, but unnecessary :).

Further explanation regarding why we dive into CSS without thoroughly understanding it first.

At 23:09 I link to a page that lists the various CSS color values and displays their various hues. http://www.w3schools.com/css/css_colorsfull.asp

Added question to video.

This site seems to have some basic (read: semi-easy to understand) information written in non-geek speak. Just the basic opening paragraph explained it to me better than reading a bunch of other pages I found

While by no means a complete reference, this page gives a much more thorough overview on MySQL that a lot of the other sites out there. I especially like the 'tips and functions' section.

I am documenting this to keep it academically honest. I admit that the devilish character depicted on this website is disturbing.

I have reached my level of incompetence as far as programming is concerned. I have to use other smarts now. Since prof has already made reference to laziness being a virtue and other folks who have kindly done this stuff before, I am now searching for sample PHP Wiki code that I can adapt for this Challenge.

Here is my comment on the last video about forms in PHP. I found it very helpful.

Here's a video comment on this "most important segmet so far" - in which "pitch" and "catch" sail over my head. Guess that makes me the monkey in the middle.

Anyone with insight into Tiny WIki out there?

I don't see a Viddler video lecture in module 6 and therefore can't figure out how to do challenge 6B; so I added a floating sticky note here. All I wanted to say was that 'Mashing' inherently makes me think of the Monster Mash and that I want to hear that song. Here's a link if anyone shares that desire: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0thH3qnHTbI

This site offers tutorials, demos, and explanations for using HTML. I found it particularly helpful when creating a site with frames. -- Free html tutorials and help, images, color codes and more for the web developer. Featuring tutorials on HTML tags, programming, basics, JavaScript, frames, hex codes and more. Our weekly newsletter provides the latest information for developers.

Strengths: Free to join, offers tutorials and widgets, you have access to other Angelfire pages broken up by genre Weaknesses: Once you exceed certain bandwidth, you must pay. Also, I think a page that hadn't been edited in years was deleted.

Angelfire's been around for quite a while, though they haven't grown as quickly with people's needs, I think. The downside is no access to databases or programming, which for free is fine. Another upside is that it is a Lycos site, so probably (though I'm not sure) few problems with downtime or slow servers. (+10)

I don't remember having problems with downtime or slow servers using Angelfire (are those the same as time out errors?); however, I could see how your additional downsides would affect advanced programmers.

For those who have not picked an FTP client yet, this seems like a solid option. It's free, so that's a start! I had troubles with FileZilla because it said I needed Mac OS X 10.5 or newer and I'm on 10.4.

FireFTP is an add-on for Firefox. It's the FPT client I'm going to use for this class. This bookmark has an FAQ for installing and using the client, which like I said before, I really need because I've never done this before.

Fixed the webprog-1-a tag.

This is an article that gives you time saving CSS-techniques. It is a cookbook of web-architect shortcuts. The Links and References section also has a list of other valuable resources as well.

More tricks and techniques you can use to make your site better with CSS. This site links you to various others to provide you with tips and codes you can utilize.

Ok, so I'm sure none of are kids...age wise (not talking mentally here). I know I learn best when something is dumbed down and in every day speak. So we'll consider this to be junior geek talk. Works for me! And hopefully for you too!

This is all new to me, so I'd like to share this FAQ I found while setting up an Angelfire account. Found it helpful.

File Transfer Protocol (FTP) is a fast, easy, and reliable way to move an entire Web site from one location onto Angelfire's servers. FTP is also a useful when moving individual files that you've built on your machine over to your Angelfire member directory. You can also back up a copy of your Angelfire site on your personal machine with FTP. The possibilities are endless! Follow the simple directions below to have your site up and running on Angelfire in no time.

Added the webprog-1-a tag for you. Be careful on that.

Type "html basics" into Google. This site, last updated by North Carolinia State University in 1998, is the top search result. The web page provides unadorned, useful information.
