As you may have noticed, page’em.com (beta) is finally out. We’re very happy about that, but also had a few problems while deploying on our new productive server.
The main problem concerned the reliability of the mail server. Until page’em will be a multichannel communication plattform and we only provide email channel notification, this component has to work perfectly.
Following last weeks post about the layout of our upcoming mails, this week I will give you a sneak peek at our forms.
Before we come to the forms itself, let me say some words on our specifications and all the thoughts we had.
Our requirements
When I was working on the layout I wanted all forms to look similar. So I had to think about all the different fields I may encounter and all layouting-options that may come with those field-types.
In addition I wanted to be able to return various messages based on the users input (errors on the users input, information what this field is about, and other information like password-strength etc). This message-box should appear and look the same no matter which side validated the users input (client-side validation with JavaScript or server-side with php).
The first draft

Since our team consists of 2 Java and 1 PHP programmer one of us had to jump in the cold water and learn Objective-C. But how can you learn a language like this? How different is it from the Java programming language? And do you really need to learn Objective-C to create your own iPhone app? A short insight in the not yet finished travel through the thoughts of the 3-egg team …
Do you know these situations where your code doesn’t output the results you expect it to do? I guess every programmer knows. Continue reading »
But what do you do in these moments? When I started coding PHP I just printed out the variable.Fortunately this has changed over time 
Now I’m working with FirePHP and XDebug (for the more difficult tasks). So for this weeks article I will write some lines about FirePHP.
Currently I’m writing some HTML-code to finish the web-dummy based on the design we made. Where it is possible, I will try to tweak our page to minimize load and traffic on our server. So I thought I could share my experiences and thoughts with you guys.
This week I’ll start with the basics you need to know about minify. Continue reading »
I will explain what it is, how you achieve it and why you want to use it.
As you may have noticed, this blog is new and quite out-of-the-box.
