BetterPHP

It's like a big, family reunion. Except without the cliché fighting.

I haven't done as much coding in recent years—other life pursuits getting the best of me—so I admittedly hadn't given this forum much thought. Then I just got that email, and felt an odd wave of nostalgia. Glad to see people doing well, and I'd love to see this place active again. Have a good day/ev...

I just love Google

ah, google. I disappointedly have not seen that yet

Did you see Google Nose?

Well... that wasn't exactly helpful but i managed to figure out the problem. I had set some margins for #main that I didn't need.

Oh, CSS. How I hate you so much… So, I'm having a bit of trouble with the website that I'm making for my web design class. I've tried figuring out the problem on my own, but couldn't understand what was wrong. I asked my teacher, but he wasn't very clear or helpful (my teacher is not very good…ಠ_ಠ)....

yeah i tried using some code i found online giving that advice. didn't seem to work.
i'm not a fan of RegExp, as I can never understand how to use them or their corresponding functions (ie preg_match)

Ok I feel really lame for asking this. I swear I know this in the back of my mind somewhere. I'm so out of practice :/ So I'm trying to come up with a quick PHP application that can convert a strand of DNA into mRNA and/or mRNA into tRNA (or however that works—I'm not following this unit that well :...

i think i just broke…

Also reminds me of http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brainfuck :shock: that hurt my brain Wikipedia classified them both " esolangs ". An esoteric programming language (sometimes shortened to esolang) is a programming language designed to test the boundaries of computer programming language de...

I had that in middle school.

4 years of studying HTML, CSS, JavaScript, PHP, and SQL (well, I started 4 years ago, and over time I started learning other languages) has brought me back to the beginning. In school I get to start all over again. My high school (I'm a freshman for ye who have lost count) offers to web design cours...

this is kind of scary… but funny

I'm just glad the world didn't end. The only apocalypse was on Facebook :3 Ironically, I saw more posts from people complaining about how there was going to be so much talk about the apocalypse than I saw posts about the end of the world itself. However, I'm pretty sure I helped save the world by p...

Ah! The pun! it burns!
But it was program-y, so I'll let it pass.

Not to be an annoying troll, but I must share this: http://www.explosm.net/comics/2651/
In all seriousness though, Happy Christmas and Merry Holidays!

ah. then yes, i believe you did

i think he was saying that you can download "a more complete" version of the script that you're making in this tutorial from that website, which is another one jacek owns. although now it's just another part of this website; downloads are here

It's not made yet

alrighty good. so i'm not insane in that way

what are you supposed to do besides… drive? The overall idea is for it to generate an infinite random maze to explore, there will be certain rooms that you need to be a certain level to get into so you have to go out and do stuff to level up then remember the way back to the amazing room you found....

ok that is pretty cool. how the hell did i miss this thread earlier this year?
One question, and i may have missed it because thread= tl;dr: what are you supposed to do besides… drive?

oh man i missed that. <?php $date = date('d') - 1; if (birthday(JACEK, US_FORMAT, NO_YEAR) == date('m\/d')){ echo "Happy Birthday!"; } else if (birthday(JACEK) >= date('m\/').$date){ echo "Happy late birthday!"; send(apology_card); } else { // "Ftxozäri alrrtok ngaru!" ...
