Ajax
I’m looking to learn Ajax, but I learn better if I’m actually building a project using a new language. I think I’ve found the perfect target. I wrote a rudimentary monster database for D&D years ago. There were some serious design flaws in it, so it never really went all that far. I’ve learned from my mistakes, and I plan on writing it again (from scratch) and incorporating quite a bit of Ajax to get the job done. It should be a great project!
It’s a bit overwhelming at the moment, but all new projects usually are. I’m going to take it peice by piece and get it all done. Fortunately, a friend of mine told me about a site that had all of the monsters in XML/SQL format, so that I can easily import the data. It’s going to make things much easier for me to be able to do that. I’m looking forward to doing it!
Wish me luck. When I have a decent working prototype of the application, I’ll post the link here for all to enjoy!
PS: If you want to help, drop me a line at my email address, and we can talk it over. I’ll be writing it in PHP, and using MySQL as the data store.
