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!

Here is a new 3-page site filled with some new info about me as well as some fun animations. I used a 2-column layout to keep my cartoon self and links list in place, have CSS working on my background images and added a new, snazzy, horizontal, unordered list menu. Hope you like it!

this was the original website from the first module. I have added another list to the bottom that should've change over, but it shows the difference between a bulleted list and the CSS horizontal menuthis was the original website from the first module.

Recipe with comment form - much love to the Head First PHP & MySQL book, whose fabulous chapters 2-4 were very helpful, and kept many tears away. And love to Erica, for letting me know that creating the additional user was a MANDATORY step. <3

If you want to create an accordion menu using Javascript and PHP, here is a solution.

The form on the bottom takes a name and comment and then inserts it into a mysql db table.

A MySQL cheat sheet from the folks at Added Bytes. It isn't much for specific syntax, but it gives a broad overview. Explains different types of data used in setting up your database table. Also much date and time info, functions, and some sample select queries. Gives a feel for what's involved with the PHP/MySQL combination.

A lighthearted look at the Fibonacci Sequence, styled with some quick and dirty CSS. Looks OK maximized in Firefox - disliking IE more and more every day.

This is something I've created recently. I use PayPal for the "store side" of the site. I've recieved a few orders here and there...no million dollars yet, but everything adds up (eventually). I had been using AdWords...but had to recently suspend that service due to lack of funds in my own pocket. I just registered for Google Analytics and will be sure to email you a snap shot of the screen. The "store" side is located under products.

i am re-bookmarking this site and re-tagging it with the mod 2 tag, because i have adjusted things a bit in my FTP... organized things a bit. So the old site bookmarked with the url http://thisandthat.nfshost.com/picturehome.html WILL NOT WORK ANYMORE. to reach that page, you need to hit this url: http://thisandthat.nfshost.com/moduletwo/picturehome.html which is the page bookmarked here. i did this because i am adjusting somethings on this page for mod 4 and when im done, i will retag with mod 4 challenges, but im not ready, at this point in time 3/10/09 to do that yet.

This is my rendering of the fibonacci sequence. I must admit that i had done this previously using javascript (when I was an undergrad, 4+yrs ago) and I would not let myself 'cheat' by researching other web sites. After sketching out the functionality and few tries I was able to get it, but I did have some difficulty with the formatting, for whatever reason, I could not get the '\n' to work, instead, i decided to echo a
tag.

Hmmm... close enough. 0 1 1 2 3 5 etc.

A tutorial on how to create forms and make them interact with php. Here, I take you step by step through nearly everything you need to know to get those databases primed and ready to go.

Oh my gosh, it works. After two days of trying to figure out why perfectly good code wouldn't work, Dr. Halavais told me that I had to zap gremlins in my PHP text, because the text was imported. Anyhow, I'm currently teaching my freshmen a book called A Long Way Gone, and since I need to find interactive ways to keep their interest buoyant, I thought this quiz might actually work in my own classroom. Thanks to Jen Rock and Dr. Halavais for their help in getting this accomplished.

This is a nice, simple tutorial on how to submit forms using php and jquery. It's done by a 20-year-old who admits he was lost the first time he tried to write these codes. That made me feel better!

cruft? or uncruft?

I've been exploring Google Book Search (I met with some members of the team recently) and I find many other people aren't aware of it. I was hoping to be able to find and browse an O'Reilly book here, but I see they don't fully participate in the program. There are, however, many books offering a Limited Preview, so hopefully others will find this bookmark of value.

Googled Xampp for Mac and came up with something called apachefriends.org. Saw a security warning in the documentation. Wondered if I could trust the site and the software.

anybody already using this on a Mac OSx?

Here is my final project, a way for people to rate their courses and make comments. I outputted the professors' names, when the course was taught and the comments, figuring that was the most relevant information.

My review and map of Rolf's -- a cozy German restaurant in the Gramercy neighborhood of Manhattan. I have a lot of great memories of this place... and hopefully more to come!

Here is a CSS shorthand guide by Dustin Diaz. Diaz is a User Interface Engineer at Google and has a website focused on Javascript, CSS, and HTML usability.

Wikipedia always seems to come through for me. This page describes "masups" and gives many examples of where they are and how they are used in everyday life.
