Web Programming

This is a brief, six question quiz to see how much of a Harry Potter nerd you are. If you get the easy ones wrong, the response you receive on the answer page will insult you accordingly. Ch.14 in the HTML & CSS book was incredibly helpful, as was Ch.1 Head First PHP & MySQL. I love the Head First books. I found this challenge to be easier than the dice, believe it or not.

Generally, I tend to bookmark sites for reference and code help. This time I decided to bookmark more as an FYI. This blog gives readers an idea of how PHP is used on some of the web's most popular sites. Some of the statistics regarding lines of code for flickr are incredible.

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.

It WORKS!!! Finally!!! And I only had to spend about 8 hours on it. Hah! This is my random rolling die page, and many many MANY thanks to Jen Rock, Ellise Kuban, Dr. H and my friend Evan the Bard (moniker) for helping me out with the code. Just goes to show that sometimes it takes a village!

You can never get enough Javascript tutorials. I personally am a fan of webmonkey.

All you sports fans can pick your favorite sport as well as your favorite team on this website.

Visualize the dice...I must say this challenge has given me the most grief since the class began. After about four days of trying and talking to classmates it has finally become a reality. This page has two die, that roll randomly. The Die are courtesy of Jen Rock and her excellent photoshop skills. Thanks to her and her refusal to do another challenge, this assignment has been completed.

Dice: successful. They were a LOT harder than I thought they would be... much love to Ellise for taking the time to explain the mathematical side to me.

I added a comment to the viddler timeline. This comment is useful in terms of validation. When you go to validate your pages and you have included "POST" the page does not validate. For validation purposes you must enter it as "post".

I found this website by googling php for dummies. I was having a difficult time after reading and watching the tutorials so I immediately began looking for the basics and some explainations. This site made it easy to get the basics and a lot of alternative ways to find tutorials. I recommend it for anyone as confused as I was at the getgo.

Hello Dr. Halavais, What is the login name/password to view this bookmark? I keep getting a window asking for both. Thanks, Eva

Hi, Eva: I'm really sorry, I just posted this to the wrong group. Nothing to see here :). (It's for my other class.)

I'm not sure why I can't view my header in Firefox, but it works on my preview. Re-styled recipe page.

What header? Don't see it in the code either...

Hi folks. This is my three page, interlinked, image included website for sub module 1-g.

Be sure to use titles in your html :).

Sweet! I figured out two in one day! Check out your astrological sign here!

Oh, and nice added images and links :).

Visualized the Dice! It took me a while but I finally got it! Instead of the random numbers popping up I replaced them with some die images that I found. I had to perform a list of "if" statements to make that happen. I also thought it would be cool to make this in to an advertising site, and give each user 3 rolls to roll a pair, if so, they win a small prize of sort, depending on the advertisement, possibly for a casino? We'll see..

Here is my facebook app. It is a simple quote viewer. The quotes it displays are from my favorite comic book series, The Sandman.

Pick a sport and choose a team!

I am documenting this to keep it academically honest. I admit that the devilish character depicted on this website is disturbing.

I have reached my level of incompetence as far as programming is concerned. I have to use other smarts now. Since prof has already made reference to laziness being a virtue and other folks who have kindly done this stuff before, I am now searching for sample PHP Wiki code that I can adapt for this Challenge.
