Web development and tips for building a website and the advantages of using HTML 5 in the site
- by Siddarth
I am trying to make a website for my college, and the program starts from jan 13 and we get 15 days of time to develop a running site.
The best site will become the college site. I am participating, for all these days i used to participate in C and C++ contests and also won a few contests, now i am really into web dev for the last 2 months.
I knew HTML long ago recently i brushed up on it and learnt javascript from "javascript and jquery the missing manual"(sorry for not adding the link) and recently bought "PHP and MySQL web development" and I am going on fine with it, but still a lot of pages to cover in that book.
After this what do i need to know ajax is one language to concentrate on, what else do i need to do to make this project up and running.
Can someone let me know the tricks of this trade and complete information to build a site like this.
Right now i am good with javascript HTML and CSS and thats it, what else I am studying HTML5 and CSS3 its pretty fast and neat.
The info on site is a college website which includes students profiles where the have to register their info with college id number and pretty much thats it. Think of it as a college site + a social networking site for students, where they can upload there pics and videos pdf books etc.
