This is a more advanced tutorial on using Ajax and PHP to extract a list from a MySql database that can be done in a way that an ordered list can't provide. After you've created the database, you use PHP and Ajax to drag and drop data in the order you want it extracted, then you can save the data in this newly-defined order.

Final Assignment. Interactive, customized Google map of the Quinnipiac campus. Color coded and packed with photos, links and more. The page includes a cascading dropdown select menu (from module 6), so you can see which buildings hold which departments. You can get to more of the official QU website from this page as well - I included the QU's site rollover menu bar. Enjoy the summer!

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

This website has a ton of tutorials and codes. It also has explainations and is a great way to search for ideas and get a sense of what kind of code you will be producing. I would recommend this site to anyone in this class, I wish I would have found it earlier in the semester.

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.

w3schools does a great job once again with their tutorials. I often find myself here at w3 when I run in to a problem. They usually do a decent job shedding light on many issues depending on what you are trying to accomplish.

This is a good resourse created by a google programmer that details API creation and techniques..

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!

Although it appears to be someone's blog and not a huge, credible site, it does appear to have the correct form of a javascript popup.

Here is what seems to be a useful Javascript cheat sheet. You can find functions, methods and even includes a guide to XMLHttpRequestObject.

In my search for how to use jQuery and AJAX to build a select drop down menu, I found this four part demo - HTML, PHP, jQuery and JSON (JavaScript Object Notation). It also includes an example of how to create multiple select boxes with data populated from a MySQL database.

I revisited my comment/recipe page and toggled visibility for said comment form. To make it available on non-Javascript enabled broswers, I found a form that sends a user to different links depending on whether or not Javascript is enabled. Thus this is the 'filter' page, if you will. If you're interested in the links to these simple codes, I hid the links in the course code. Ta da.

Credit because it works. But... This is a great reason to use jQuery. It's unobtrusive, so to anyone visiting the site normally, the form will show up. Only for those with javascript would it be (at first) hidden.

Pick a sport and choose a team!

This page helps one select a favorite sport. After selecting a sport, it automatically populates the drop-down box with sports teams.

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!

I found a tutorial for a fade in/fade out effect that looks really cool and then implemented it with slight revisions. It works!

I was able to figure out how to use a jquery fadeout. I found that beginners video to be very helpful! I also made it a 'slow' fade.

By clicking on the "Leave A Comment" link the email form appears. I just cannot figure out how to make the email vaidation code to stick. I am still a little confused on where to put the second function script.

A self-generating sports drop down menu, with a tad bit of personality thrown in. Special thanks to Erica for cluing me into this site: http://www.twilightuniverse.com/. Again, I was trying to do things the hard way.

Here we have two dropdown menus (you won't see the second until you make a selection in the first), the second of which is dependent on the selection within the first. Right now, that is all that happens. I wanted to get a little fancier, and may still if I have time, but wanted to get it in as is for right now in case I don't get to snazz it up. Enjoy!
