This is a Google Map of the QU campus. You can zoom in, zoom out, and click on buildings to see what they are and read a brief description.

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

Yet another version of this challenge...

This is Google's page that explains their Google Maps API. "The Google Maps API lets you embed Google Maps in your own web pages with JavaScript. The API provides a number of utilities for manipulating maps (just like on the http://maps.google.com web page) and adding content to the map through a variety of services, allowing you to create robust maps applications on your website." This is mentioned in Mod 6 and you can learn more about it by going to this site.

I place a comment/link on this page above the YouTube video (http://www.tizag.com/ajaxTutorial/index.php). It's a great site that has more general info regarding the use of Ajax with php, forms, and browsers. Good for newbies like myself!

This is an update of what I posted last week as I finally got the email verification to work using a different script. I used countless websites trying to do this, but my script came mostly from this forum: http://forum.hostican.com/javascript/javaapplets-f19/email-validation-t1683/

This site has lots of useful information re: javascript, event handlers, functions, etc. I found it particularly useful in doing the hw for Mod 5. It had so many script options I didn't even know where to start. Worth spending some time here!

A comment I placed on Video Lecture 5-2...

This page lets you submit a comment, and then displays it on a new page.

My comments form for challenge 4-F. Took a long time, but I finally got it.

I'm getting the following error msgs for challenge 4-g and I have no idea why...

The comments are going into my database AND they are posting to the page after submitted. But - these errors come up before you fill out the form and submit:

Warning: mysql_query(): supplied argument is not a valid MySQL-Link resource in /f1/content/rocksteadyvybes/public/soup2.php on line 76

Warning: mysql_fetch_array(): supplied argument is not a valid MySQL result resource in /f1/content/rocksteadyvybes/public/soup2.php on line 80


How do I get rid of them? I checked the code on both lines and nothing!

My line 76: $result = mysql_query($sql,$db);
My line 80: while ($row = mysql_fetch_array($result)) {

Yeah...I've clearly been failing in trying to define the variables. Will try this out...thanks for the tips and response!

This is a comment/question I posted on Video Lecture 4-4.

This page has a number of assorted questions and answers regarding php and MySQL. Good to browse through should you find yourself stuck on something.

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.

*I had to update/change things in the code. Please grade this one!* \n\nHere is my site for the Sign challenge! A huge shoutout to Nancy for helping me debug the messy code I originally had written! In addition, I used this site for some ideas: http://www.2wap.org/forums/index.php?showtopic=4866&pid=32711&mode=threaded&start=. However, this site led me wrong in multiple ways! Citing it anyways to be safe!

The CSS wouldn't copy over to the php file. I couldn't figure that part out, since I copy/pasted the exact link line from my HTML. I don't know why it didn't work.

That worked, Nancy! You're the best, thanks!

I've been working on this 1 challenge for about 3.5 hours only to get smacked with crazy validation errors that I don't understand. I tried googling and hitting up some forums, but neither have helped.

On my HTML file, I'm getting Validation errors that read:

Error Line 65, Column 6: end tag for "form" omitted, but OMITTAG NO was specified.



You may have neglected to close an element, or perhaps you meant to "self-close" an element, that is, ending it with "/>" instead of ">".

Error Line 65, Column 7: XML Parsing Error: Opening and ending tag mismatch: form line 54 and body.



Note: I get the same 2 errors for my html tag.
Also note: My php file was written using the very same template, and that file checked out as 100% golden. So I'm left being way confused, because my tags are fine. I've double, triple, and quadruple checked them. I don't get why this file isn't checking out ok.

I found this helpful for me, the "Absolute Beginner"! Describes a little more about what PHP is, what it does, and how we can utilize it.
