- I plan on learning HTML and all the necessary associated skills with making a web page.
- As far as a progress indicator, I plan on creating a (un)official web page for the Model UN club for WL.
- Depending on how long it takes, I would also learn PHP.
- Here is the tutorial I plan on using:
- Tizag Tutorials
- The site also includes a tutorial for PHP
- I have started on the website and here is what I have accomplished:
- I think the first quarter will be spent making the site.
- The next couple of weeks will be spent learning php and making the site able to be changed by someone else easily.
- I took a sizable portion of code from a login system on another site and integrated it into my own.
- The site now has login and user functions.
- The next step is to make it so that people can change the site or add things without messing up the important stuff.
- Here is the newest version of the site
- The last step is to make it mutable
- I'm torn between making a wiki system of appending and changing
- And a system of just changing the file itself
- This would require access to the server itself but would allow for easier typing
- And be a whole lot easier to code
I think I'm going to go with the first option because I want the system to be as easy as possible.
- As it turn out, it was easier than I thought
- The system now allows you to change things
- Even without being connected to server
- Only admin can change things. Username:admin Password:firesky1
- However, each individual page will require a specific type of change/input system
- I have already done the four easiest ones
- The system now allows you to change things
- I need to make systems for:
- Photos
- Databases(spreadsheets)
- Lists(photos and links included)
- As it turn out, it was easier than I thought
- I've created the database editor and was working on the photo and links editor
- However, I figured out that someone already created a site for MUN, using a web site creator, and thus mine is useless.
- As such, I have taken the web site offline as to not waste space.
- I am going to get started on a personal website that would display different pictures and allow people to leave comments.
I have switched projects and am now creating a personal website.
- It has, as of now:
- An login, account system
- A prototype add comment system, that utilizes the user account system. It contains:
- A date and time function
- Comment Areas
- Signiture Area
- Avatar Area
- ( The idea being the the avatar and signiture areas will link up with the user account for more personalization.
- A function that takes text documents and makes them linkable to the site, provided they are in a specific folder.
- Most importantly, all file storage uses MySql instead of just text files, which I guess makes it more professional (not to mention harder to use)
- However, it is not on washlee.net nor anyother server, it is only on local host.
I'm almost done with what I want to do with the website
- I synced the mysql database and the folder with files in it so that it now:
- Creates a mysql table everytime a file is added
- Deletes the mysql table if the file is deleted
