The FileMaker Technical Network is now free for FileMaker developers, designers and users to share their knowledge and skills amongst one another.
PauseOnError London was a great success! FileMaker developers, speakers and sponsors flew from all over the world to attend the first Pause on Error event in Europe.
This is a concept shown by Fabrice Nordmann at this years Pause on Error London.
Having seen how he uses this, I have used it in a couple of solutions and found that it does make moving data around really easy and saves on creating lots of variables, so cuts down development time as well.
I think of all the things I love about being a web developer – its the constant development and evolution of the technologies available to me as a developer. Just this week we have the following (proposal only at the moment) from Adobe – CSS Shaders.
London will be playing host to it’s own PauseOnError on October 20-21 at the Park Plaza Sherlock Holmes Hotel in Baker Street. It’s going to be the same format as the previous Pause events in New York and Portland, but with a few minor differences. Primarily, this boils down to using conference rooms instead of presenting in hotel rooms. As Pause on Error is an unconference, it’s a much more self organising event than others such as FileMaker Devcon.
One of FileMaker’s great strengths in the ability to convert a standard layout into a web page. Instant Web Publishing is a great way to get a database driven web site up and running if you have no knowledge on how to build a web site and connect it to a database.
This was originally intended to be a blog on useful tips to get around the limitations of PHP’s bind variable methods when using prepared statements, however the ‘short introduction’ got a little out of hand, so instead you’ve got a post about using prepared SQL statements with PHP (which is probably a more interesting choice of topic for most people anyway).
Just a quick post from me today, to recommend jsFiddle. It’s an online service that allows you to quickly try out Javascript ideas and share them with other developers. The mileage you will get out of this for development I (would imagine) is small – but as a learning and sharing resource its fantastic!
