So I altered the layout of the module selection page in the early dissertation stuff to avoid lots and lots of scrolling across, as it's nasty and inefficient. Hopefully this is a little more logical. I'm also thinking that the page can submit to itself rather than having to pass the variables to another page... I'll have to see how that works once I get it all sorted out properly wink.

New plan

So I got a lift back home with a mate and came up with the final plan for my dissertation. Bugger SVG; I'm gonna play with XMLHttpRequest!

I've come up with an introduction and it'll be on here soon enough. I think It's jolly exciting and will compare and contrast dynamic sites using a combination of PHP, PHP Text DB API, MySQL, JSON and AJAX. Should be nice to do and will be based on stuff that I did as a research assistant at APU.

Ratatouille... made from 100% pure rats

1 huge aubergine
3 huge courgettes
4 ripe tomatoes
1 red pepper
1 big red onion
Olive oil
Salt & pepper
Mixed herbs
Tomato puree

1. Sprinkle salt on sliced aubergine and leave to stand for half an hour (This takes the bitterness away... apparently Wink)

2. Wash salt off and fry with the rest of the vegetables in a big wok until things look like they're "getting there".

3. Add everything else and a bit of water, cover and simmer for 20 mins.

4. Scoff the lot right quick!
