Web Programming

Tutorials, code snippets. on all kinds of helpful things!

Large Collection of JavaScript source code. This site features excellent reference material for JavaScript, including a script archive that is easily accessed from the homepage.

If you want to create an accordion menu using Javascript and PHP, here is a solution.

I noted that Professor Halavais talked about deprecated codes for Javascript that will have to be edited whenever you find older code you want to grab. So here is a handy list of what NOT to wear when you try on old code!

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.

This site is a lot "wordier" than others that I've seen...but what I personally like about it is the examples followed by a short description as to what it is I am looking at. I like that (and learn it easier)

Throughout this course, I seem to always visit this page for different topics. I find it to be written in everyday language, even when explaining Javascript. I've looked over the site, and it "works" for me to help understand the language.

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

Here is my recipe upgraded with some CSS. The only trouble I had was getting images that I created to link to my stylesheet. So instead I just found some images via Google Images and used them as background images. I know it's not the best case, but as I'm learning, I thought it'd be alright just so I can see what happens when...

The Fibonacci Sequence is a mathematical series of numbers where each number is the sum of the two numbers before it. The website I bookmarked was created using a combination of html and php.

Is it a new trend now to have a little vertical "Feedback" tab on the left or right side of a web page? I've been noticing it all over in the past couple of weeks.

This adds the menu bar to the Recipe with CSS. I tried to include a comment in the code crediting the site where I found it.

Hadn't noticed it...

I retooled my green smoothie recipe with a cascading style sheet for all elements. I have multiple divs, an image that "floats" to the right, and a fixed background image.

Well done. Need to keep a keen eye on legibility with background images. But like the direction you moved in.

This bookmark is a combination of 2-d and 2-f: it is my restyled recipe and horizontal menu for the CSS portion of the course. At first, I was a little hesitant / confused about learning the CSS formatting. Once I got used to the concept of the css formatting I found myself wiring code with ease. There was many back and forth between typing and viewing in the browser, but I got the hang of it. The one issue I had was with browser compatibility - the margin: auto; code did not render well in IE7, but had not bugs in firefox. The most difficult potion of the menu was hiding the attributes that the browser assumes should be included with a bulleted list and links hence why a css style sheet comes in handy.

Very nice. Should make it a habit to title your pages. But well done.

It may be a great recipe, but no one is going to try it if the page doesn't look great.

Nicely done!

Nicely done!

It posts a comment, thats about all I can say. MySQL and I are not friends at this point, I'll leave it at that.

I feel the same way, LOL!

I've been reading MySQL's MySpace page, and she still thinks you're cool.

Here is a link to the XAMPP program that Professor Halavais recommended in video 3-1, if you want to "test things on your machine as if it were on the server" (Halavais mentions this around the 19:50 mark). The program is free and is compatible with Windows, Mac, and others.

Here is a javascript validator. It won't submit unless the fields are filled in. Also, the email must be filled in correctly.

Good enough. It did let me by with a phone number of "3" though :).

Here is my javascript form which validates email addresses as well as phone number, name, zip code and phone number.

Hmmm. Managed to slide by some strange email addresses, but good enough for government work :).
