Web Programming

I still don't understand why AJAX is useful (heh) but this website explains it really well. Thanks for a great semester y'all.

Okay, so I think that reading by time period is a sport. But I never said I wasn't an English geek. Erica to the rescue once again!

Simple livin' and high thinkin'...one of these days, I'll get Java, but it won't be this semester!!

This is as complex as this form is going to get. All that needs to be done to make it work is to enter your name and email address as values. Many thanks to Erica for helping me out.

This tells you the basic information that users need to understand JavaScript. It spells out in simplest terms that JavaScript uses to work on sites and computers that access the site.

For the final project I completed the QU Campus map. The site utilizes PHP and CSS to pull in content and layout the site. The menus utilize CSS and PHP is used to pull in the images and code the label (or legend) section below the images. Google Maps API also integrates allowing users to view and zoom the campus. The site is best viewed using internet explorer, there are formatting issues for the CSS of the menus for those using Mozilla. Also did anyone notice that the official QU map is missing #34? They may want to consider addressing this... Anyhow have a great summer!

I finally created a form, going to a guest book, the only thing I'm having trouble doing is seeing the posts...

This is my final project. all the pages validate, and i have included the little icon the validation page provides you. I have used ajax and php on the first page to display course information when you select a course from the drop down menu. on the courses page, i have included a javascript validation to make sure you fill out all the fields if you want to submit a rating and comments. The php automatically displays the comment once posted. any questions, just ask! Thanks for everything

This is very nice. Enjoying the subtle differences in this challenge among those who did it.

NO - This is not my final project, but I thought this was a really cool mashup to share. It uses Google street view and Twitter. The view changes with the Tweets, depending on the location of the Tweeter.

Wow, cool mashup!

This is a graduation countdown until when I (and anyone else who plans on graduating next spring actually) app for facebook! It was a little confusing at first with the facebook api, but I once I got used to it it was just a matter getting the php to work. Facebook doesn't support javascript fully so I had to find a countdown in php....it doesn't look quite as cool as the javascript one, but it still works. FYI, it's a little plain...but it works!

here's the 'home' for my 'rate my class' project. as of this posting, i've got the structure of the site all laid out, it just needs some cascadingly stylish touches. i didnt use any javascript on this yet either. i just wanted to get something posted in time for the class deadline. each class has its own php page, which pitches and catches to itself, and its own mysql table. the nav drop down links directly to each course. enjoy!

Miya's is simply incredible. it's a place you need to eat at before you die. i can't say enough about their food. amazing.

apparently other people got the code from webmonkey too? here's my stab at their ajax voodoo... since i'm one of the few here who dont work at espn (ha!), i picked something other than sports

got this form to validate fields. the script i found also highlights the fields you foul up, and also gives a different message depending on if you put in an invalid email address, or just left it empty. cool!

how, with a little bit of help, i figured out how to get user inputted info into a MySql table.

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 created a Connecticut news source page with a form. First pick the medium, then choose the news organization. Like many of my classmates, code came from http://www.webmonkey.com/tutorial/Build_an_Ajax_Dropdown_Menu. Seeing if I can adjust to add jquery.

My php page of pictures from Paris fades in once the user hovers the cursor over the top of the page. The page validates.

Here is my final ICM505 assignment. I chose to do the course rating challenge, using all of the courses in the Communications graduate program that are to be offered next semester. Many thanks to everyone who submitted reviews - much appreciated! And a HUGE shoutout to Dr. Halavais for helping me troubleshoot those last few errors. You saved me much grief! I hope you all like it!!!

tiny wiki. type in what you want in the textarea, and see it displayed at the top of the screen when you return.
