Wow, just wow. It’s over.
Anyway since I’m a Silver medalist and I don’t need to participate anymore
WorldSkills competition, might as well leak some of the details here.
In the beginning I was actually still undecided about hand-coding or using
Dreamweaver to assist in the development. Eventually when I saw the paper
immediately I knew that I should be able to hand-code in 18 hours. What was
unexpected was the application requirements for Day 1.
With the application requirements needed for Day 1 and they mentioned that
the design factor will only be marked on the third day I decided to put up
the basic interface structure and code, code and code.
I started building the MySQL class which was a quick and simple one. Most
importantly, it allows me to get the data with just one line of code, like
this:
$db->getVars('SELECT * FROM users');
You could probably say this article pretty much saved my life A LOT: http://www.woyano.com/view/410/PHP-and-Working-with-Databases-for-the-Lazy-Sod.
Only on the last half hour of the day that I realised something that screwed
me up the whole day, THIS:

Crap, something unexpected. No I didn’t type that exact JavaScript code shown
on the picture, it just gave me this after I used the header function to
redirect the page after a successful entry to the login and database (adding
stuff in).
End of the day, I have to thank Microsoft for making my day really bad
