Subject: [PHP] best ways to recruit volunteers for a PHP framework

Hi everybody,

I have developed an ORM framework in PHP for the last 2 years and it's
becoming a more professional and nice solution so before doing a
new complete revamp I am going to look for volunteer developers to do a real
good version.

But I am wondering what would be the best and clearest way to present the
 project in order to get some people interested in it ?

I was thinking about
- showing the previous versions
- showing use cases
- showing unit testing (I'm doing test driven development)
- a short user manual (the project doesn't have any user manual yet!)

Thanks in advance!

RE: [PHP] PHP frameworks

2011-08-05 Thread Christopher Lee
Hello,

I am new to PHP and wanted to ask a question which I think is related to this 
discussion thread. What are you referring to when using the term "PHP 
Framework?" I downloaded Eclipse-JEE with PHP Development Tools. Would this 
development environment constitute a PHP Framework?

Best,

Christopher

I'm still waiting for the day when folks on this list get together and say, 
"let's put all of our notes together, as beginners and intermediates, and put 
together a book for the newcomers, from the newcomers, by the newcomers, who 
can relate to them without the taint of overexperience."

If properly presented, it would not only be easy to shop to publishers, but 
it could also be one of the first truly collaborative publications to exist on 
biological remnants.

First, I hope that I am posting my response to Tedd correctly (no top posts..). 
Second, I totally agree with Tedd and I am only 36...:-)

Tedd,
Your naturalness is always endearing, even when you play grumpy.  ;-)

It may seem like overly zealous waste of technology.. but look at it from 
another angle - It's just plain ole (ancient) human need for social 
interaction... piped through the latest tools.
The girls anyway certainly love FaceBook, et al., for the same reasons they 
ever loved the chance to compare social notes.

I did not use the takethislollipop.com app, so I don't know either what is its 
point (I hesitate like others said they do, to let apps grab all my FB data), 
but here I was just commenting on FB and social apps in general.

[PHP] PHP based online survey tool

I am looking to develop an online survey for a non-profit. The user should be

You will see that the forms are in a matrix format. I am having trouble

Tedd,

I appreciate your reply to my post. In no way do I expect anyone to code for 
me. If that were the case I would hire someone. I have posted to this list 
numerous times and, if I am not mistaken, the list is designed to ask for 
suggestions, which I did. Being rude does not help anyone.

I understand how to program radio buttons in a form that record 'instances' of 
a response. I just was not sure how to set-up a similar matrix to allow the 
user to enter a numerical value.

I will follow your suggestion and submit my work.

Best,

Christopher

I don't see a problem here.

1. Figure out how to create a HTML form (Investigate HTML tables).
2. Then write a PHP that will scrub the data and submit it to MySQL.

The length and layout of the forms are of no significance.

This is basic html/php -- try creating something and submit your work for our 
review. If you want us to write the code for you, please look elsewhere.

Cheers,

tedd

Christopher,

Maybe Tedd was a little curt, but the language you used just made it seem like 
you had not done enough HTML work to really be able to sort out the difference 
between HTML problems (missing pieces in your understanding), and PHP problems.

HTML forms are totally independent of what you DO with the data that gets 
submitted when the user clicks the form's submit button.  HTML lets you lay out 
the form to look however you want..  (you can use HTML's ... 
to achieve the visual layout you want).  PHP is needed to HANDLE the data 
(receive it from the submitting form and save it to a db).   When you say, "You 
will see that the forms are in a matrix format", and, "...[you] are not sure 
how to set-up a similar matrix..."  it sounds like an HTML problem.  If you do 
need help with HTML layout, then practice, Google, and consulting an HTML list 
will be your best bet.

Now, if you need help with writing the PHP that handles the data, then great!  
This is the right place to ask!  But we need to see code you attempted, in 
order to know your level of understanding, and so be able to guide better.

Christopher:

My apologies if you took my comments as being rude. The point here is that if 
you want advice, then we need to see what is causing you problems. Giving us an 
outline of what you want isn't giving us anything other than "This is what I 
want" -- with an implied "Do it".

My advice, the first step will be to create a form with elements like these:

http://rebel.lcc.edu/sperlt/citw229/examples/postform/index.php
http://rebel.lcc.edu/sperlt/citw229/examples/stickyradio/
http://rebel.lcc.edu/sperlt/citw229/examples/stickycheckbox/
http://rebel.lcc.edu/sperlt/citw229/examples/stickymultselect/

and then get it to work for you. If it fails, present it, and we'll comment.

Cheers,

tedd

PS: Everything you need for this first step is provided above. The next step 
will be cleaning the data and placing it into the database.
