That goes double for me =) Novemberish?

Developer or Designer? Could collaborate if you're the latter, I can't design to save my life.

Mostly just Wordpress unfortunately, quick, easy and quite a bit of money to be made in it. Also producing danvelopment.net and quickpass.me but they're both long from finished.

Oh, and Pinkfrog.com.au which is a client's project, built up the CMS from scratch and leave the client to add the content.

I'm a PHP and JS dev, but dabble in everything else and looking to learn C#.

Heh, I'm a wordpress freak atm, although I'm comfortable with C, JS, Java, Actionscript etc and learning C++ for a uni paper. I am a designer at heart though. novoalias.com is my portfolio but currently halfway through a revamp, and too busy with client sites to update it :(

Yeah I know the feeling, Danvelopment will get done eventually. Oh, I'm an AUT student as well, although did a Dip of Web Dev at Natcoll last year. In WF on a daily basis.

Actually, I think I may complete it, rather than fucking around on a sunday.

Well if you have some spare time I can't figure out why the 'read more' links generated using jquery aren't working when the hard coded version does. >.<

Heh, after much play. Take the script block that is above the test button. Especially as it says



$(document).ready(function() {
2 $('a[rel*=facebox]').facebox()
3 });


And put them ABOVE the other buttons. At the top of the div class="grid-12 alpha omega" should fix it.

It's all client-side stuff, thus it parses from top to bottom, not in any order like Php etc

Hey, I'm at Natcoll at the moment doing a diploma of web dev.

This thread is now about web development!

We've just started MySql and PHP - for some reason I had trouble with $_SESSION but using databases has somehow made it click. I like coding. :)

Suntoucher
8th August 2010, 23:37
Heh, have you Steve for your teacher? Yeah $_SESSION is just a variable on the browser, rather than the page and thus stores data, and can be called at any time rather than only when that page has the variable stored.

If you need any help, can give me a yell. Until I find a job or more web work I'm bored most days as I have classes at night.

Jeez, you lot must be moving at a snails pace, and paying for it! Go to http://www.w3schools.com and read from beginning to end. ;)

I taught myself enough php and mysql to make a website in 1 day!
It was a simple website for entering jokes to a jokes list and being able to delete them but it was still pretty awesome.
I wrote it in notepad too.

Paying? I'm getting paid to learn ;) Basically just teaching myself something new every time I build a site.

I'm basically doing too much other stuff to spare time for learning more than I need to know right now. Covering rent is more important than memorizing endless tables of "IE 5/6/7 does not support [insert basic web standard here]".

Later... CSS3, HTML5 and beyond! :Punk:

In other news, who wants to stop working freelance and start working limited liability? I have a few interested already..

Not a problem.

I just don't support anything below IE7.

Would consider working for someone if the offer was right, although for me atmosphere and working environment would be more important than the cash.

Wow, you just summed it all up in one sentence. Nah, Chris is my teacher. Steve comes in every now and then. However, he uses different property/method names and a lot of people get confused. Common debugging: is your filtered data stored in a $clean array or a $filteredValues array? Chris prefers $clean and Steve prefers the other. Dunno what I usually call mine but it really shouldn't matter. :mellow:

If I'm stuck I'll let you know, it often takes fresh eyes to see a mistake in code.

I've dabbled in CSS3, pretty neat stuff! I might stick to images for the moment, maybe leave CSS3 for websites directed at web developers/designers. :\

Any chance you met Jessica Alderdice? Shortish, slightly larger redheaded girl doing DMA. In Germany for a couple weeks.

I do content writing and proof-reading. My son-in-law builds, hosts and SEO's websites, having done so for years in Europe before coming to NZ for International companies.

We have a team working together and do mainly small to medium, (up to $100k). Anything from scratch-built to using proprietary templates, from online business cards to full shops.

Fascinating industry and I've learned a lot, but haven't got the time to study, so leave the techy stuff up to those who do it best.

Very attractive! Apart from the Fire and Light website which was my wee effort to get a business card online, the others in my sig were built by Rudy. Another site we've built from scratch is www.jamesblond.co.nz also www.paperhanger.co.nz and www.valencia.net.nz which has been edited by the owner and adapted from a Joomla template.

Reigniting this thread!

Industry assignment looming, ohgodohgodohgodohgod.

I have to find a client within a couple of weeks and get a bunch of stuff sorted out while participating in some class assignment.

Anyone know of anyone needing a web application? Something needing a CMS and plenty of back-end development, otherwise I can't pass.

Just asking before I try elsewhere.

Could probably find someone if you needed it. Natcoll is pretty lenient though, could even make one for yourself. Or could do my profile site if you're that desperate for a third party(I'm not even that desperate yet, it really needs doing, too)
