IS 226 - Project 1 - Part 2

And for Projects 2 and 3 anyway...

It was just a shame my first sem at school again after more than half a decade took away the little time I could afford to update this blog. Anyway I'm adding this link to the product of my full attention set at web development. And by web development I mean everything from web design to web technology codes.

Which is the reason why I chose to include projects 2 and 3. The next projects are essentially refinements to the preschool home page requirement for the first project so it definitely makes sense to lump them all here together.

Project 2 takes off from project 1 by requiring additional themes to the homepage output from the first. That is, project 2 requires additional CSS files so that a different look and feel would be provided for the user without any changes to the XHTML codes. Kind of reminds you of CSS Zen Garden. Finally there should be at least three additional themes apart from the default one coming from the first project.

Project 3 on the other hand, required JavaScript codes to validate user inputs during login, depending on the type of user signing in. For the particular project, that would either be student, teacher or parent. Though I wouldn't really implement such validation that way for a production website in real life, I had no trouble finding my way in JavaScript. Prior to this course I was more of a back-end programmer so much of what I actually got from it was more on the web design end. That is, I found project 2 of the course more time consuming though not essentially more difficult.

Without further ado here's the home page. The 2nd (Kids' Play) and 3rd (Black and White) screenshots not shown in this post can be found here and here btw.
