Welcome to IWETHEY!

New I'd definitely vote for it over Front Page
The biggest problem with FP being[1] code that only IEx will render as expected. As a teaching tool, my complaint would be that it abstracts so much of what it's doing that I question how much you're really learning. Everything I've ever learned in a Microsoft IDE was only useful in that IDE.




[1] Take this with a grain of salt, as I haven't used it in a while. But based on Microsoft's history, I'm still pretty confident saying it.

New My thoughts as well

I try to push for open, cross-platform solutions as much as allowed. My PD has told me that I have a lot of leeway in how I run this class. So far he likes my ideas.

Now I can justify the use of Apache based on Netcraft stats, but I want to sell them on PHP as well. I note from the stats that it's the most popular Apache module but I'm looking for numbers on its popularity in general as a CGI language.

I've got [link|http://www.php.net/usage.php| this ] from php.net and [link|http://www.securityspace.com/s_survey/data/man.200508/apachemods.html| this ] showing how PHP compares to other Apache modules (it's way out in front).

The class was learning about some revolt in which some peasants had wanted
to stop being peasants and, since the nobles had won, had stopped being
peasants *really quickly*.

New Personal Dictator? Professional Druid? Practical Devil?
New Program Director

Although Personal Dictator works as well. (He's a benevolent one, luckily, and he actually has some technical background as well as good people skills.)

Getting an education was a bit like a communicable sexual disease. It made
you unsuitable for a lot of jobs and then you had the urge to pass it on.
