Hey all!
I'm still hopeless with PHP -- I have trouble remembering stuff cause I haven't had to apply a whole lot yet cause I haven't had miniprojects to do to work things out with. ![]() I was thinking that I might be able to make a little thing to record my walking stuff -- ie, how far I walked, how long it took me, what my average speed was while doing it, etc. To do this, I think I need to learn database stuff, right? I've not done any of this yet. I understand that there is some information on database stuff on the mysql website, but I hear it's a bit tricky to understand for a n00b -- so is there anything easier out there for me to look at?? Any hints on what else I might need to have a handle on to record my walking stuff?? I might want to have it label personal bests too.... |

PHP and a database engine should be all you need for that. If you consider yourself completely hopeless with PHP though, you might want to hold off on databases. I learned the ins and outs of PHP by making my website read and parse page content from text files before I started doing database work. | |||

Why don't you try building a simple counter for your site. It is something simple that requires not too complex file I/O. For example, each time someone loads a given php page, you will read in a file for the current count, increment the count, and then write that count back to the same file. Then, to display the counter, open the file, read the value there, and then display it. | |||

Originally posted by HyperHacker Hmm, it might be so. However, I worked with database stuff before working with files. I just had more use for it. And it's not that complicated. ![]() |

Well, I was gonna do the counter thing, but every single script I've ever made has just suddenly broken. ![]() It acts like there's no user input. So uh.. if a user enters something in, uh... it acts like they didn't. It outputs my error messages for "enter some data" ![]() |

It's fixed now... that particular problem. I think I need to lay off of this for a while.
While PHP is something that I've genuinely wanted to learn for a while, it's also been being used a touch as a defensive/coping mechanism -- which started out working until certain events bought the effects of others to a head, and then a single line of php code caused something in my head not to function properly. ![]() So uh... I need to lay off it for a bit perhaps. |

No, the problem isn't with the language.
The problem is in my psyche, PHP just proved to be a trigger for some severe emotional dysregulation. |

Promgramming is a great soothing activity, although when something doesn't work I do inevitably feel worse.
I think it's a feeling of things conspiring against you on a bad day ![]() |
