Been working on another ‘stealth project’. This one came to mind one evening. Looked for a domain name, found it, then started thinking about how to implement it. Couldn’t sleep that night, so got up and registered the domain name. Then started the build process.<\/p>\n
Started out with a ‘wireframe’ of the site design by creating the CSS styles to implement the design. Created a couple of databases, built an input form, then started tweaking from there.<\/p>\n
One of the features of the site is a voting process. Looked around the Interwebs for some code, and found one possibility. A day’s worth of work and troubleshooting and still couldn’t get it to work, but found another (and better) solution.<\/p>\n
So, the ‘stealth site’ was finished today, just a few days after thinking up the idea. And it’s ready for testing by any of my two (maybe even three) regular readers.<\/p>\n
Introducing: “MadBecause.com”. A place where you can easily enter things that are bugging you. And look for things that are bugging other people, with an easy way to vote “thumbs up.down” on each item. Try it out at www.madbecause.com <\/a>. There’s a few things I want to add, but it’s ready for testing.<\/p>\n Who knows if it will be popular, but there’s always hope. In the meantime, I learned a few more things about programming web sites with PHP and Javascript, plus a bit of Ajax. So even if the site turns out to be relegated to the dim recesses of the Interwebs, it was worth the effort due to lessons learned.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Been working on another ‘stealth project’.
