Class 07 assignment - 3 - Did I say, "Almost Done?"

Moving along but like the Tortoise.

Working files at this point are here onepotcooking.com/davidbone/class07/2/

Coding Observations
  • I like my file management to be consistent. Because of this I had some issue with file paths and in particular the image path for this project. I was looking for a way to set a base directory for the whole project and have all links start from that point. I didn't figure that out but I did break out the paths in the variable definitions because there was a different path for moving the image file compared to writing the image file's path to be read later from a file at a different folder level.
  • Arrays are huge and very important in the loop. I need to understand these better as I needed to look at other's code to get it... thanks again Jonathan.

My toDo list since last post:
  • Get the home page working with gallery
  • Limit the view to last 50
  • Design the layout + figure out thumbnails
  • Work on security which is non-existent at the moment.
  • Test the limit on file size upload. I don't believe it is working.
  • Template the error messages onto one location like I saw Jonathan do... good idea.
I'm doomed - HA!
