Progressing on with ugasmis.org redesign....

I read about 70% of the PHP/MySQL book. The MySQL section is getting a little bit confusing, but I am sure that I will be able to figure it out.

Thankfully, I am off the pain killers, my shoulder is feeling a lot better, and I am able to spend more time programming.

Today I started working on the template for SMIS's website. This way, anyone needing to create an additional page will have to do minimal work in order for it to work. This will also allow future work to be easily edited as one change can fix all of the pages that run on the template.

This is what I have so far:


The re-design is rather simplistic visually, but programming wise its rather good. The new site will feature a CSS that has specific properties that are easier to implement. This will keep those who update the site in the future from screwing up. By the end of the night I hope to finish up the template.

As for the future items, here is what I hope to do:

1. import current php and other objects that are currently found on the website through the template
2. find the most important areas that need php work
1. hightlight those pages with high priority
2. fix one by one
   
1. this might involve database editing
   
2. also might involve working with other officers to highlight key areas
   
3. test
4. fix
5. repeat ;)
3. after all that is done, add more PHP objects in order to make the site fully functional and error free
   

Well, I'll update as soon as I get frustrated with coding. As for right now, you can go to http://ugasmis.org/redesigned/test.php and check out what I have so far. Any suggestions would be great!
