[QUOTE=twenty;32123732]Does anyone know how to close all divs that have been opened with slideDown() in jQuery? Or if it's not possible a way to do multiple statements in a single line? jQuery: [code] if ($("#History").is(":hidden")) {[/code] in PHP it would be something like [PHP] if($var = 2 || $var = 3){ [/PHP] (haven't worked with PHP in a while, may not be correct.[/QUOTE] Something like this? [code] $("div").each(function(){ if((this).css("display") = "none") { $(this).slideUp(); } }); [/code]

Does anyone have an idea of how I would make an annotation/announcement box like the one we have on Facepunch? It would be perfect for the website I'm doing for the Computer Association I'm a member of.

just make a div and style it like a text box adding borders and background colors. and add javascript stuff so you can close it and stuff.

Anyone know if WebMatrix is good for programming with PHP?

[QUOTE=Val67;32165841]Anyone know if WebMatrix is good for programming with PHP?[/QUOTE] It looks pretty, but it's basically a "web development for dummies" platform. It probably does fine as an IDE, but at that point you're better off with a PHP-centric IDE like phpStorm.

Also, anyone ever used Lua for webdev? Or Groovy?

I have been working on a website for about a month but I recently decided to rewrite it because I didn't like my frontend or my backend. I am using CodeIgniter So there goes my question, I don't want to clutter my controller space so should I just make one Library where I put my functions and then just work with that?

[QUOTE=Val67;32166642]Also, anyone ever used Lua for webdev? Or Groovy?[/QUOTE] For Lua there's [url=http://www.keplerproject.org/]Kepler[/url], but while the language is more than capable, it's not commonly used for web development, so support is severely lacking on most fronts (help and documentation, third-party libraries, web hosts with ootb support, etc).

I plan to host myself so webhosting is not a problem

You think you're going to write a website in Lua?

[QUOTE=Lequinx;32167193]You think you're going to write a website in Lua?[/QUOTE] ...and the problem is?

It's piss easy with mod_lua on Apache, the Kelper project has some good stuff too. The problem is the lack of support for web-based things, you can't really make anything too complicated as a result, which is a shame because Lua is my favorite language. And it competes with compiled languages for speed despite the fact it's not compiled (utilizing LuaJIT of course, so it's sort-of compiled).

Sorry, but how can I make it update the amount on a paragraph tag? I forgot a lot since I last did JavaScript.

Heh, after I reopened Chrome it looks fine. Weirddd :v: I think it may have something to do with the Inspector screwing up. [editline]7th September 2011[/editline] Thanks for checking anyway. [editline]7th September 2011[/editline] Chrome has pretty bad AA on larger fonts.

First time ever in this section. Tell me if I'm doing something wrong. I have a website idea that is really good (I think it is), but I don't know what to do about it. Basically, it would be a homepage with everything you need on it. How do I carry out this? I don't think it's something that HTML could do but what other languages are there for web dev.?

[QUOTE=Octave;32170852]"everything you need"? Sounds like iGoogle to me.[/QUOTE] Yeah it's a similar idea. But it would be a little more customizable. Window size and position would be whatever you'd like it to be. Plus, I don't really like the style of it. Feels kinda cluttered in my opinion
