This website I found helpful for this module. I like the beginner sites that explain the simple stuff from the start. I would recommend this site to not only beginners but to web developers as well, it is always a good idea to review the basics.

This site lets a user select a genre and then choose a movie from the dropdown. The movie choices repopulate as you select a genre. I had help/got scripts from this site: http://www.webmonkey.com/tutorial/Build_an_Ajax_Dropdown_Menu

I finally got webprog-5-d to work. Not sure why it wasn't before but thanks to good ole' Nick's help its up and running.

WordPress is one of the most popular blogging platforms available today. And a fair amount of people really like it. It's powerful enough to be a complete Content Management System, it has every feature/function a blogger could ever dream of (either built in or available via plugins or custom func

LearnStreet is an online education platform for coding languages such as Ruby, Python, and JavaScript (as of January 2013). The program is designed to help users learn fundamental coding skills and apply them to a number of real-world projects.

online education platform that democratizes coding via a completely new mindset and approach ­ for teaching people how to code.

I added a menu bar to my recipe page. Now, the page links to "Other Recipes", "Other Soups" and "College Inn," all with dropdown options linking to external sites.

I forgot to add that I used this site as a reference for the Menu Bar: http://www.alistapart.com/articles/dropdowns/ A friend of mine also helped me with the positioning of the nav as well.

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?

A website whose purpose it is to be a one-stop shop for all your html coding needs.

This is a MySQL tutorial that you can download to help you understand MySQL databases and php.

The following is a site complete with all sorts of tutorials for PHP and MySQL. It is separated by topics such as Setup, Admin, Syntax, Database, Connect, etc, and allows you to jump in where ever you feel the need to. I'm a newbie, so this site has been great to read through.

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 a free HTML tutorial site that requires "no prior knowledge of programming." It is a step by step, 15 lesson tutorial that is short with photo examples. It also promises to equip you with information that will have you creating a website within an hour. Simple. Quick. Easy to understand.

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!

I'm finding this page to be very useful. It has many different "cheats" for not only CSS but other web development programs.

This is extremely helpful...thanks!

This site include CSS tutorials as well as other web related topics.

To paraphrase Denzel Washington's character in "Philadelphia" (Heck, this may even be a direct quote considering I've seen this film so many times... ): "I want you to explain it to me like I'm a two-year-old." This site does just that! When I am learning a new skill, I want material that is utterly foreign to me to be Kindergarten-ized as much as possible. I would not be the least offended if I saw the following (and hopefully with pictures!): "See Spot mark up the plain text document. Mark up the plain text document, Spot, mark up the plain text document!"

Had some help with the CSS parts: Used Chapter 1 (Specifically Page 41) in Head First HTML to walk me through the CSS coding.

Nice work here. A couple of suggested improvements. First, you should avoid using the center tag, but if you do, it should be inside the "body" tag--generally nothing comes between the HTML tag and the head tag. Also, you're missing your body :). However, it meets the requirements for the assignment, and looks good doing it.

Sounds delicious, 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.

I had a lot of fun with revamping the look of my recipe page. I added a background image, jazzed up fonts & colors, had some fun with my bullets and even figured out how to add blinking text! One of the sites I got from CSS Zen Garden's CSS Resource Guide (listed as Web Developer's Handbook, which I will also bookmark) was a huge help. Enjoy!

Oh my! You have some fun stuff going on there! :)

Ok I know what you are thinking...why is he bookmarking a flash reference site - flash in a web programming class? Well I decided it was important to bookmark the ActionScript reference page because the structure of ActionScript 3 is similar to javascript used in many webpages. No, you don't need javascript to create a webpage, but adding it can allow for additional site functionality. It is also important to know the potential of integrating flash into a website and allowing for variables to be passed form the webpage and communicated to the flash movie.
