Who’s better off?

A designer/developer who succeeds at an interactive ad agency… or a employee the next brick n’ motar community who designs web sites or web apps or uses web 2 . 0. 0 technology This can be a question that features rolled around around my mind since that time I got laid off by just a non-profit. Like many people I took that classes, I visited the webs forums and examine tutorials and before long I gained some knowledge while in the web design biz and lastly did some work with clients. But I aren’t keen on the freelance life-style, and there are indeed some people who would elect to work for a genuine company (from web 2 . 0. 0 start-ups in order to ad agencies). So if I will sell my heart and soul to Da Man, I’d like to learn where are the best career domain or industry to perform so, (such as advertising) without straying completely far from the web developer’s ecosystem. I have no desire to become the website master of Ford. com or perhaps Macys. com, it isn’t really that simple. To paraphrase, I feel that behind closed doors it is not enough to be … Continue reading

Paypal buy it now button encryption question – SOLVED.

Hi there – I’m doing an artist’s web page that runs upon php, with Paypal obtain it now buttons for every piece of paintings. Next time i did " develop button" in Paypal’s website – I analyzed the code it gave me, and used php in order to insert different variables in the form that it sends to paypal – in addition to hey presto, whilst in make a seperate acquire it now button per item. The variables staying altered were quite simply the name and tariff of the item (being read on the simple SQL table). Nevertheless, this was without needing " encryption" around the make button page of Paypal. I am concerned to use this otherwise claim someone might be capable of alter the address where the payment goes to be able to (for example dodgynigerianscammer. com as well as something). Thus, making the button using encryption it looks like I’m going to have to manually create a different button per piece of paintings, as the form no longer has the variables I want to alter along with php – it really is all encrypted. Namely the value and item brand. Is correct Or am i allowed to … Continue reading

Jobsite templates

Howdy all, Just in the deal of running by having a check-list for any jobsite that I’m piecing together (it’s for a smaller network of consultants), and realised i always may be re-inventing the wheel somewhat, and that there could already be templates out there for the type of things they want the site to do (I’m relatively certain that there exists CMS software that can do this, conserve me time, and save them thousands of dollars! ) Fundamentally, they want a jobsite containing: There’s also other suggestions (interactive map together with locations/types of jobs) that they have on their wishlist however I think which might be a unique obtain, and something that I’ll have got to code. So – is there any jobsite templates on the market I’m thinking in the lines of classified ad scripts: http: //search. aol. com/search; _ylt… yoAp=php labeled ad& y=Search& fr=yfp-t-501 A script that may be then customized to do what you would like with it. But I believe most have the registration part executed. As simple as that! Thanks – didn’t think to find them as classified ads but all those links are best. Many thanks.

The property page, a " might know about do" page, testimonies, contact us, faq, a sales mail page, a fit page and an order page of which utilizes Paypal and 2checkout. Is there software with some sort of shorter learning curve which may help me create a decent looking internet site I only realize html and are barely proficient by using Photoshop.

Any suggestions will be appreciated. Theresa Just look through the forums below, and you will dsicover several threads just like this one. You need to learn CSS and also HTML, first, then go from there. In addition, if you planned to pay someone to complete the site for yourself, then you shouldn’t have to worry about an individual being technical adequate, your designer will be able to work with you to definitely get what you look for done. Now, I’m not saying that all designers usually are … Continue reading

Sorry, another PAYPAL question – SOLVED.

Obtained my buy them now buttons create ok now (see some other thread) – did a test manage and everything’s fine. I’m seeking a method – maybe by using a mysql table of marking the items as sold if the paypal has already been made (and not necessarily before). It could be easy to indicate them as sold once the buy it right now button is constrained, but if a person changes their brain and presses " back" around the first paypal pal it’ll get marked sold if they haven’t finalised the payment. This might have something related to the " return" page on Paypal – if your payment has happen to be finalised and Paypal returns me compared to that page, maybe something has to happen there that will mark the picture as purchased from the database. Any person know anything with regards to this Thanks. Nay hassle, people, I worked out a strong method last night time. Delete thread in order. If you’ll be able to post how people fixed it these, other people may benefit Ok I’ll try : Any time someone presses that " buy the idea now" button it tends to make a timestamp around … Continue reading

When should I say I have experience in a technology?

I believe there are obvious levels since it pertains to experience, especially in this particular field. I include, and I’m sure everyone in here has, toyed by using different technologies or languages. I’ve create several Windows job application, such as photograph views, or calculators, but I would never put I have experience with C#. I’ve simply toyed for it. My question is, at what point are you versed enough from a language or software program, where you may accuratly say you could have experience in this. With HTML as well as CSS or Javascript, a good employer can simply view your form, but I’m conversing more directly for server-side languages within this posting. I can say I know PHP and MySQL, because I’ll do content maintained sites, maybe an image gallery, or only use it pertaining to " ease" tasks, such as utilizing includes, but am WHEN I correct in saying that. That hardest issue WHEN I face, is everytime I believe I " know" some thing, I read someones post, or see someones end merchandise, and I wonder if I’m to the point where I’m in a position to say " I understand PHP". So it is possible to … Continue reading
