One of my all-time favorite Saturday Night Live skits was “Stuart Smalley’s Daily Affirmations.”
I’ve decided to have a little fun with PHP by adding random Stuart Smalley quotes to the gench site I’m building. I only want one user to see these quotes (my client who is also my husband) and it’s really just a silly joke between us. As silly as this example is, this technique can be used for serious applications as well. Many is the client who wants rotating slogans in their branding zone.
Please Note: This example was based on version 3.2.1 of the font-awesome library. I’m not sure when this occurred, but the current version of the font-aewsome library (4.0.3) has changed all the class names for their icons. The example in this posting will work with version 3.2.1, but if you prefer to use the most recent font-awesome library, you should substitute the word ‘icon’ in class names with ‘fa’
For example, in 4.0.3, you would use…
<i class="fa-play fa-rotate-90"></i>
etc…
A commonly desired feature on websites is an expanding/collapsing list, with a rotating arrow button.
I want this feature on both the gench FAQ and album review pages, and I want the currently expanded section to collapse if another section is expanded or if the currently expanded heading is clicked on again.
A webform’s layout can be controlled by PHP.
Say I want to take this webform…
Webform – before: the student’s name is on 3 separate lines
…and put the 3 Student’s name fields (Student’s first name, Student’s middle name & Student’s last name) on the same line together like this…
Webform – after: the student’s name is now on 1 line
