Well it seems like I got behind in this class since here is a big post with a bunch of assignments to document. Really though most of it was done and because of my ongoing befuddlement with C# I did not get around to documenting the assignments.
Assignment 7
It was basically done in class that day and was working. This is a second example of the application. The first I had named sprockets and did working along in class. Then I created a frogs application right after class that day to retain the knowledge. The only other things I have done to it is this last weekend I spent a couple of hours working on the CSS and documenting the files added to the spreadsheet. I am still not happy with the CSS. I am sure that when I know all the parts of this application I can then go back and make the extra classes and maybe some wrapper divs to get to the a look that I like. Also I am keeping in all the extra explanations that are the pages so that when I come back to this to study I won’t have to start over from the download files. This looks like a good thing to have on my site to play with. So I am thinking a lot of description is good for now. That is why I am keeping the muffins and model pages.
Assignment 8
This is the assignment that took me the longest to finish out of class. I decided to just use my old travel photos to create a small travel log. So that is why there is a new link on the menu saying travel log. For this to really work I think I would have to reconsider both the layout of the page and the table information. I would add a couple more categories and then I would need to call that more information. All in all this took me about 4 hours, mostly because picking what photos to use and what to say about them slowed me up.
Assignment 9
I did the pager in class on the muffins and it took me all of 10 minutes to do the same on the travellog_list page to do it again. I did stop to open and look at the pager page in the inc folder. That looks like it will take some time to understand. I am hoping to get to it soon.
Assignment 10
I did it in class that day that we went over it. The only thing I did at home was to create a new developer sign-in and to create a link on the menu for the assignment. I made the link assignment 10 because it just didn’t seem right to make a link admin. But I was looking a Sandy’s site and she had the admin sign in right on the front page. Maybe that is what I should do.
Assignment 11
I did it in class so the contact link is correct and uploads to the database.
