Thank god for my working buddy Louise, who seems to be 'miles' ahead of everyone when it comes to PHP. Although a little frustrating to be around someone who can come across a little impatient, however she did make it all a little clearer for me to understand the process. Today we managed to code a PHP page to '$_request' a name of variable from another page through the use of forms using; text boxes, text areas, check boxes, radio buttons, drop-down and list menus. All skills which will be put into good use for our Quiz assignments.
Thank you Louise for making this class a little more enjoyable this week :)

Week Two - PHP coding
Going through the handout and I begin to wonder whether I will ever get it? Arrghhh! Popped into the Mac lab today and found some other Dynamic web students trying to 'nut' out the coding also, at least i'm not alone :)
So, what have I learnt so far?
Loads of coding, but I now need to put it into action and instead of trying to understand it on paper, it's time to make sure I can produce the results on screen. Still a few more to finish on the handout, so i'll get going and get on with it. I really do hope it starts to make sense, seems to bring back loads of Actionscript memories :)
Bring on the Quiz!

Week One - HTML
First week back and my brain is hurting.... html code, isn't that why we have Dreamweaver?
Anyway, it's a good way to refresh myself back into Multimedia mode after doing two semesters of Professional writing units. I am really excited about this unit, but also really scared!
I'll keep you posted on my progress throughout the semester...until next week and more html and php.
