I was trying this out earlier today and I was amazed in how easy I adapted to this class. The class can be really simple or it can become complex (by adding “function combos”, mix of php-like operators/statements, and custom html functionalities). The simplistic view of SMARTY is the fact that if there were two people (1 php programmer and 1 web designer), the php programmer would never have to touch HTML/CSS and the web designer would never see the “coding” side of the site. SMARTY is designed to separate the server side coding with the client side. In addition, SMARTY added two key components to its class, a cache functionality and a debugging console. Take a look at their site and read the first few pages of the documentation. If you are going to code a custom made site in the future (no CMS guidance), use SMARTY to start you off.
New theme, new plugins (search cloud, twitter), AND updated my wordpress admin area.
So this night I updated everything on my domain since I’ve been pretty lazy posting, added myself to some project site that asks developers/coders to make websites, downloaded CS4 Flash trial, and I cleaned my desktop since I got a million files just sitting there doing nothing.
Busy for the month of March, had midterms at COD, launched new marketing ideas at Texas Roadhouse, started Halo 3 ladder site for fun (http://pgtourh3.com/), AND made a few new php classes which I’ll post later in April. Some include….
- Bungie.net Game RSS Parser
- XBL XML Data Parser
- Login Class
- Cookie Management
Oh also renewed the domain/hosting at IXWebhosting. Pretty good deals there, if your looking for a host refer me (email: followinto@gmail.com)
I was born in the year 1990, I currently live in Naperville, IL, USA, and enrolled at College of Dupage. I have a pretty good ability to create sites/web applications using PHP, jQuery, CSS, and HTML. I have multiple skill sets for each language/markup. To download my resume, click here.
