Your most valuable recource?
October 28, 2012 11:57PM
What was your most valuable resource throughout this course? Handbook, exercise files or internet? My favourite internet resource was Stack Overflow. The have a huge user base and people with a lot of know-how. I would recommend them to everyone!

Oh and by the way (off topic): I found a site that collects data about hacked websites. So if you have a profile with a site that got hacked and you're afraid your details where leaked, you can go to https://shouldichangemypassword.com/, enter you email address, and they will tell you if your profile details where exposed.

Most valuable resource: my snack cupboard, definitely my snack cupboard. Where would one be without food? lol!

I used the handbook a lot. I have a few upcoming projects and will continue studying from it. I Love the way it explains, *No offence* but I prefer the handbook over the H&L tuts

Oh yes I forgot about youtube. There's some very useful videos there. Also try Lynda.com. Very good video courses available there... not free though.

Mac, can we "show off" our projects? I've got mine on a free hosting service. Can I post the link to it here for comments from the classmates since submission is over? Oh, and there is one function that doesn't work on mine, only saw that after it uploaded it to the testing server.

October 30, 2012 03:34PM
I tested it and it worked, if you check out the manage students you'll see everyone who's registered, theres 2 currently. I'm not sure why it did nothing when you tried. even if you missed a mandatory field it would do something.

@Euwen, yours kicks mines butt in looks bru lol! I didn't display the student number like yours did, eish, I also didnt send the student thier student number lol! its good bro, other than the security, i managed to insert some php and html and it accepted it. Yeah, from a novice its great dude!

@Lance and Euwen: nice job! I like your sites. Did you guys apply any security measures to your sites? I know security is the one thing I think most of us paid the least attention to... I know I did lol.

Thx 77740963, Problem was I was stuck so long on certain stuff which made me fall really behind, so I lacked security, I ran outta time to do everything.I am sure some of u would agree, certain things took weeks to achieve,
not days, but now that that's resolved, it's definitely in my head now what I need to do next time
