'Contact Us' form - 0 views

    A contact form exists at the bottom of my recipe. There are a few problems with it, but I am begging for exponential amounts of mercy. I feel dumb.

Monster Mashing - 0 views

    • Katie McLaughlin
       
      I don't see a Viddler video lecture in module 6 and therefore can't figure out how to do challenge 6B; but 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

    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

It's A Wonderful Quiz - 0 views

  •  
    A 10-question multiple choice quiz about -- big shock -- "It's a Wonderful Life." Step 3 of the assignment isn't exactly followed religiously, but I'm praying for mercy.

My Viddler comment @ 6:45 - 0 views

  •  
    I make a comment/ask a question regarding why background images must be as washed out as possible -- and suggest that it really ought to be up to the designer.

My favorite restaurant - 0 views

  •  
    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!

Essential Technology - Ajax Arrives for the Enterprise - CIO.com - Business Technology ... - 0 views

  •  
    A smart article that reads almost like a novel, or maybe more like an engaging scholarly paper. It won't teach you how to implement Ajax/Javascript; rather, it will help you put it all into perspective a bit more.

MySQL tutorial/beginners' guide - 0 views

  •  
    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.

Javascript Tutorial - 0 views

  •  
    Another great beginners' tool. What I like about this site are the links within the tutorial that allow you to locate almost anything (Javascript wise) you could possibly be looking for (IE: checkbox selection, popups/alerts). It is also organized in a pristine manner which is of utmost importance.

Dice - 0 views

  •  
    When you asked for a visual depiction of something that looks like dice, I wasn't really sure if you meant game dice, or Andrew Dice Clay, so I included both. Which serendipitously happens to cover the "two dice" requirement as well... right? :) Tee hee hee. Anyway, here you'll find some html, css and php combined with images.

Introduction to PHP - 0 views

  •  
    I know I already "bookmarked something relevant" this module but I couldn't resist sharing this one as well. It's a VERY basic PHP tutorial with great links -- and is broken into bullet points. Bullet points make me happy! Bullets, however, do not. Happy PHPing.

My 2:45 pop culture reference - 0 views

  •  
    At 02:45 I point out something that perhaps doesn't fall under the category of worthwhile to our lesson, but whatever -- Rosie the Robot (of 'Jetsons' fame) would never need instructions on how to make a PB&J sandwich. She would make it with love, too. Also, she could not make 50,000 because she'd get tired.

PHP 101 (part 1): Down the Rabbit Hole - 0 views

  •  
    Module 3 for me is beginning to shape up to be similar to Godfather III. At first I hated both but now I realize their value. OK, in this here bookmarked link, author Vikram Vaswani turns PHP into something akin to a nice novella with excellent screenshots as examples. This tutorial is engaging, friendly and filled to the brim with info.

All the President's Menus gets a menu! - 0 views

  •  
    I created a working, horizontal menu bar on the main page HTML file for the web site I created earlier in the semester. The menu bar allows people to click on individual presidents' names to find out their favorite foods.

Stained Glass Cookies: Redux - 0 views

  •  
    I have (arguably) added some pizazz to my Stained Glass Cookies recipe. Don't forget to enjoy them with a frosty glass of milk!

I link to color values during lecture 2-1 @ 23:09 - 0 views

  •  
    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

Applying CSS to HTML - 0 views

  •  
    Another great beginner's intro to the world of CSS mainly because it provides just as many examples as it does explanations. In addition, it encourages you to try out the code as you go along rather than simply expect to learn by osmosis (which is pretty much impossible with this subject anyway).

An elementary explanation of CSS - 0 views

  •  
    Similar to something I bookmarked in module one, this page does a great job explaining CSS in its most basic terms. It is short on words, but long on meaning, which is what I tend to seek out when learning something new. The following line (which is very similar to something Alex said in the lecture) really helped me put CSS into perspective: "The coolest thing about CSS is that you can link to an external style sheet, and this sheet can change the style (font size, color, link color, link hover etc.) on your whole Web site just by editing the one style sheet."

All the Presidents' Menus - 0 views

  •  
    Though the assignment was to publish a three-page site, I got a little carried away and added more. This is just a fun site dedicated to (some) U.S. Presidents' favorite foods. From the home page, you can link to Obama, Clinton, Bush 41, Reagan, and Kennedy -- and back home again. Bon Appetit!
