 you know you can do this too:
 tr class=?= (($r = !$r) ? 'row0' : 'row1' ) ?

 How come you don't have a way to see/download the source code for all these
 examples?
 
 I noticed that, too. But I have to say, this is one of the coolest sites
 I've ever seen. If you wanted to convince someone (a prospect) you could
 do something, this site would do it. Next time I talk to a prospect, I'm
 gonna call myself Tedd and refer them to this site. ;-}

No -- never use the short tag.

Use:

tr class=?php echo( (($r = !$r) ? 'row0' : 'row1' )); ?

examples?



With some of my samples I do, but the main point here is for ME to 
have a place to fall back to for reference.


Cheers,

Paul:

Thanks.  :-)

But that's one of the points here and that is to have something you 
can show a client that you've done. Keep in mind, that it's better to 
have them in your office so you can control what they see and guide 
them through your examples. But if nothing else, you can show them 
something you've done without showing a client's site.


I don't like showing client sites because: a) the site is not usually 
100% yours; b) some of the sites I've worked on I don't want to be 
associated with (horrible front ends); c) and sometimes prospective 
clients want to contact your past employers and you may not want that.


For example, your past client may not want to be contacted -- after 
all, it's their time -- what are you doing wasting their time? Also, 
who knows what they are going to say? Even good clients who like your 
service may look at someone inquiring as to your service and think 
Hey, what happens when I need something and my programmer is working 
for them? Belive me it happens.


So, my recommendation is keep your experience and examples under your control.

Cheers,

tedd

That's true.

I went by the name Tedd in my previous life, see:

http://geophysics.com (I think the site is down at the moment)

In my current life, I much less important so I go by the name tedd.

Now they have two problems.
