For 2023 (and 2024 ...) - we are now fully retired from IT training.
We have made many, many friends over 25 years of teaching about Python, Tcl, Perl, PHP, Lua, Java, C and C++ - and MySQL, Linux and Solaris/SunOS too. Our training notes are now very much out of date, but due to upward compatability most of our examples remain operational and even relevant ad you are welcome to make us if them "as seen" and at your own risk.

Lisa and I (Graham) now live in what was our training centre in Melksham - happy to meet with former delegates here - but do check ahead before coming round. We are far from inactive - rather, enjoying the times that we are retired but still healthy enough in mind and body to be active!

I am also active in many other area and still look after a lot of web sites - you can find an index ((here))
Simple but rugged form handling demo

There are some weeks (OK - MOST weeks!) where I have great fun during training course writing examples in front of the class that help with their application of the subject being taught. And this is one of those weeks.

It's an added pleasure where the demonstrations are web based, because I can then put a running copy up onto our web site and share the fun with everyone.

Here is a little demo - nothing too complex - that lets you enter in some values to a form. It validates the entries, gives you opportunities to correct errors without having to rekey everything and produces a nice final result. Not rocket science, but the sort of thing so many web sites need. As it's a training example, I'm able to put up the source code too and I've even built in some documentation.

Oh - the application is also "bullet proofed" so that users are prevented from doing lots of the nasty things that can be done to an interactive web page ... or rather, if they try, they'll be thwarted!
