Programming

It's been a while since my last blog and I'm not following what I laid out for myself at all. However, I've been feeling pretty good for the last two months and decided to take on three small-to-medium-sized projects:

• Teamspeak 3 Query Plugin,
• C++ 'Windows Made Easy!',
• and Some Recent PHP Work that will come to light soon.

For the Bad-Company 2 Fans
We (TPG) recently fired back up our Bad-Company: 2 server due to popular demand (and because EA decided to get off their butts and fix some major issues, i.e., networking). However, in EA's haste to throw Bad-Company: 2 to the way-side, they forgot to fix the VOIP (Voice over IP). Some (unnamed) TPG junkies approached me and asked if I could write an addition ...

Introduction
I've been working on this desktop program for about 3 months now. It's virtually ready; it can do everything it needs to, I am just adding some extra fluff, like help stuff.
The idea for the program came from studying Japanese in college, where I had originally written down all of my words on flashcards. This became cumbersome, as I had over 400 flashcards!
I looked into alternatives such as websites that let you add flashcards, but not everywhere I went had Internet. So I looked into desktop applications for a flashcard program, and while there were some,
I decided it would be fun to write my own!

In The Beginning...
...We start with a screenshot! As much as I want to bore ...

Due to the 10k character limit, this blog had to be split in two!
This blog isn't programmer friendly, I tell ya!

See Part 1 here.

So Where Were We? Oh Yea!
We've generated the nav items and thumbnails by now, so lets look at the php that gave us the addresses in the first place!

javascript.php (bad name, but I haven't gotten to changing it yet)

Code:

<?php
  function getPaths($directory = '../../photos')
  {
    $paths = array();
    $dirData = scandir($directory);
    
    if ($dirData)
    {
      foreach ($dirData as $data)
      {
        if (is_file($directory . "/" . $data))
        {

The Photo Gallery Project
Welcome back everyone.

Last time I went over some basic code, nothing really special.
Now I've got some cool features implemented, some visual appeal going, and all-around coolness.
Before I only had HTML and Javascript, now I have some PhP thrown in the mix as well.

Since it took me so long to get around to this blog, I figured I'll give you two screenshots from when I was developing the site.
After you've had time to take them in, scroll down and I'll highlight what has changed.

The Photo Gallery Project
So before, I left off saying I was learning Javascript and PhP... well, I haven't actually touched PhP, but as for Javascript, I think I've got the most of it.
For those of you who don't know (basically everyone), I started working as an intern last week. However, I have not been assigned anything yet.
I made it through orientation, which took about 2 1/2 days to complete, but since then, I've been working on this project at work.

But don't worry, they know I have nothing to do but teach myself stuff, so they let me work on it when they aren't introducing me to ...
