  1. 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.
  2. Here is the tutorial I plan on using:
  3. I have started on the website and here is what I have accomplished:
  4. 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.
  5. 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
  6. 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
    • I need to make systems for:
      • Photos
      • Databases(spreadsheets)
      • Lists(photos and links included)
    • 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.

  1. 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)
  2. However, it is not on washlee.net nor anyother server, it is only on local host.
