You have only succeeded in restricting yourself to android (that is the only place i know it is called webView).
So you no shine anything, you forget I am a fullstack programmer that work on multiple platforms.

My point remains, you will find it in all the platforms but under different names. On some platforms, you will even hear it called webkit.

You are still a learner jor. Wetin you know. Even in that your android sef, I don extend the normal webkit to youtubevideo player (without the youtube api).

There's Web browser Control in BlackBerry too sef

It might also be a wayward plugin.... Try disabling all plugins and see if the issue persists....

There was this email plugin I had. Anytime I make a post, the way it sends the emails makes my ISP block me for sometime and renders the website inaccessible for a while. Something similar might be your problem.

I will go for development from the scratch - see the ecommerce solution using my framework here - http://cravings.com.ng/test/

hahahahaha mehn it's like someone dared your abilities while you were making that tesr

ZinoFego:
My question is....can a PayPal account opened in Nigeria receive funds?

As at now, NO!!

guru01:
That's why we need to buy in naira to grow the economy.
We need lots of start ups in this country.

LOL are you still trying to be the meziah of nigeria ?

Left for me, the country can crumble.... I'm out

ZinoFego:
Can you at the moment use your Nigeria ATM card attached to that USA PayPal account to make payment?

I'm not talking about my card. I'm talking about my PayPal funds. So yes I can, except what I'm paying for exceeds what I have in my PayPal account, then there might be issues.

My point is, if your hosting costs you $100, and I transfer $100 to your PayPal account, you would not have any problem paying

ZinoFego:
Does your Nigeria PayPal account accept funds?

My PayPal account was created in US so yea I receive funds. Contrary to popular belief:

1. I use my Nigerian card for an account that was created in US and it works as expected
2. I do not use any form of vpn and I'm currently in Nigeria and my account still works

E be like say recession don catch the dude, battery died before he could complete the post, so he quickly clicked submit before b3low.

hahahahahahaha

I'll send mine soon

guru01:
http://www./ is down.
When such happens to you project, you will be like

Lol so a whole you, guru!!!!! can post such an incomplete thread

ayodeji1975:
Deposit Money Banks stopped their naira debit cards from dispensing dollars to customers via ATM in foreign countries, as well as disallowed the cards from being used for online and Point of Sale transactions. This affected me today as I was about paying through my card for my website hosting in America. Can anyone advise on the way out please especially those of us who could not do without transacting business online.

You can also try using PayPal

Transfer the money to someone with PayPal funds and in turn they transfer the equivalent to your PayPal account

elpedro:
Sorry to derail the thread.. Is there an easy way to convert a blog to an apk so that android users can view your blog after installing the apk. I meant without hard coding the whole thing??

dhtml has answered you. That's the best way

Whytelyon:
I know

- Penetrative Testing
- Reverse Engineering
- Malware Analysis

I can code and I know security. I know how to detect sql injections and how to protect them. I know a lot, but imagine telling me, "I cannot pay you" oya shay na when I use this skill hack them now them go wan jail me ba? Helping to encourage lawlessness fully.

LOL I totally understand. An hacker was also telling me that Nigerians don't like to pay... If you tell them you found a vulnerability, they'll ignore you. And if you bring them down, they'll start threatening you.... Left for me, #BRINGTHEMALLDOWN

Okay so I think I understand now..... I use PayPal to pay for hosting, Ads, Fiverr etc

So $5 is always $5

The last time someone paid me to use more than my PayPal funds, I didn't like the debit alert i got AT ALL so I'm sticking to PayPal

Afam4eva:
I bought the smallest hosting plan that Hostgator has for a client and was expecting the usuall exchange rate of 200 naira to a dollar as enforced by CBN only to see an alert of about 24k. Guys, it's just $50 freaking dollars. I don't think i'll be buying anything in dollars for a while.

hahahahahahaha, pele

This one is really really bad

dhtml18:
Chai! some people just dey chop life. Recession dey chase but never catch me sha, in fact, him no fit catch me sef.

LOL I trust you na.

The only thing that affected me is the WhatsApp-BlackBerry issue..... It's really touching me had to completely start focusing on Android and getting a Macbook

dhtml18:
How market nao?

For me, it's not at all

For me, my biggest project is TAM https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.fincoapps.tam. Made some over Half a million from it

Programming-wise, I'll say my biggest Project is Pin Pals - https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.fincoapps.pinpals.... Just started monetizing it this February

gloryz24:
For simple stuff I use Yii (or even CodeIgniter) and for more complex projects I use Laravel. Yii has really nice set of generators so you can generate models quickly and make something really quickly... CodeIgniter is easy to deploy on shared hosting and Laravel is really advanced and powerful framework... I enjoy learning it on LaraCasts.

Is it difficult to deploy a Laravel Project on Shared Hosting ?

talk2hb1:
Ehm...Ehm..Ehm.
CMS:
1) Drupal: Customization, Custom Theme and Module Development (I got introduced to this beast Framework in 2012 when I interned with an Open source envagelist firm, we deployed an open source school software with Drupal and release it as open source)
2) WordPress: Customization, Custom Theme and Module Development (I can't remember how long I have been using this Engine, but I have developed countless plugins and themes for it, in fact I'm working on a custom theme for a woocommerce site)
FrameWorks:
1) CakePHP: I did say I have a master degree in cakephp from version 2-3, I'v developed more than 10 project with it the past 11 months and still using it to developed a solution for someone.
2) Laravel 4&5 : I abandoned this guy last year due to digression of Cakephp I moved to this Laravel 4 after dumping CodeIgniter did some minor project in team job. Will go back to it in projects I'll be doing alone.
3) CodeIgniter My first PHP framework simple and elegant but too simple to meet my taste of framework left it for Laravel in 2013 (May not go Back it again dunno sha!!!)


I used to believe that before learning Laravel, but now I use more of CakePHP dunno why
In my Opinion Laravel is a better CodeIgniter just like C# is a better Java

I don't believe c# is a better Java

dhtml18:
www.mma2.com.ng - I made 1m+ from that - if you are wondering whether i am just running my mouth, why not check view the source code and inspect it for my siggy.

Nice... I might have actually come across this website before.... So you designed it (Y)

dhtml18:
1. silento - i dont really know, but this dude seem to be a blogger (rather than a programmer)
2. seunthomas - for similar reasons as silento
3. melodyogonna - he is trying to tribalise this section

more to come your highness, these boys must be relegated.

hahaha

dhtml18:
CakePHP used to be on my list, but it is very slow in terms of performance. I will advise you to move to laravel, it is better than CI.

Please in what ways ?

The only thing I like about Laravel is that it has a template system.... I've not really looked into code igniter

jimklef:
First, a short myth:

strain. This attack is frequently used by
the “hacker” group Anonymous, which
doesn’t help anyone’s reputation.

hahahahaha

Let Anonymous catch you. They'll chew chew you anyhow

dhtml18:
I am trying to do a small survey on the use of PHP CMS/Frameworks by developers in the house.
Please let us try to show maturity and reduce insults.

Disclaimer: those of you that dont like PHP, please do not come and start throwing insults at anyone here.

For CMS, sadly just WordPress

For Framework well, CakePHP... but I don't really like it again.

I'm considering migrating to CodeIgniter or Laravel and I'll need advice on this

DanielTheGeek:
I'd actually do that, because at the end of the day, I may probably improve my app. But bro, I'm busy rn, don't mention me again please. Thanks.

Very mature way of handling this matter (y)

I think it would be better if the people under the "PROFESSIONAL CATEGORY" should be given a project, where they all do and show on Github.

This way, the voting would be based on the same project type.

Because some guys might have all just been working on projects for clients and these projects might not be exceptional enough while some others might have even worked on 3D games, so that would definitely get more votes

asalimpo:
Bros, your story still doesnt add up. It smells fishy and i aint afraid to tell you so.
Architecting, then coding, then debugging a very large application takes a freaking long time.
if you worked so long and under intense duress for so long, the client would be in a rush to use his software
not sit down with you, and count the lines using of all methods a tedious method.
Non programmers hav very little interest in code . It's like children who dont like maths seeing maths, it scare them . So this clients interest in counting code lines ... hmmm.

let me give you som info of lines of code:
couchdb- was 20k lines of terse erlang code. It was a game changer
I was reading a blog once by a programmer who wrote an application with 100k lines of code,it took him 10yrs!!
youtube and facebook - yeah, the global phenomenoms. With all the intense grinding work of the founders
were about 10k lines of code at launch!! - think of it.
Facebook - zuckerberg resigned to concentrate full time on building facebook.
with 3 or so other coders and it hand only about 10k lines!!!
Dude.

When you add testing!!! Testing 100k lines of code alone could take you months or more.
Testing every function ...
infact by the time you're pushing out 100k lines of code, you'd hav spawned so many frameworks and libraries from the effort.

Then architecting, remember you can't just hack 100k+ . it must be architected like a professional.
The architectural phase alone would take months.
The testing will take months.
The building will take a few minutes or even up to half an hour.

Doing all these in a few months -- hmm!! It looks exaggerated.
Dude,think again. But i could be wrong.

You might be wrong....

It's not as difficult as you make it seem...

Poor architecture can also increase lines of code.... so the programmer does not necessarily need to spend months planning

Secondly, you make it sound like the programmer knows how many lines of code he's about to write before even embarking on the project

My point is: It's possible to write that much code without even too much planning or testing (Although 100K lines is a lot). I've done A LOT of unplanned projects so I know

Kodejuice:
the link over thereis invalid, 404

oh yea, I removed it.... I'll like to mail the source to you

DanielTheGeek:
Rightly said man, but push() there, is that the pusher library function or your own function for explaining yourself.

No push is an array method. To push a new element to the array

Kodejuice:
function score(node){
if(computer win) return 100;
else if(player win) return -100;
else return 0;
}

since its Tictactoe this would make your game unbeatable, provided you are searching to a reasonable depth.

I'll like to share the code with u

Kodejuice:
function score(node){
if(computer win) return 100;
else if(player win) return -100;
else return 0;
}

since its Tictactoe this would make your game unbeatable, provided you are searching to a reasonable depth.

This is just the algorithm. The fact and also issue is evaluating if(computer win). This would be a very long method to check if the current winner is the computer. That's wwhere my problem is.


I tried restricting the search to make it detect only horizontal wins and leave out vertical and diagonal and it became a lot faster. But that's not Tic Tac Toe

Kindly look at the codes dhtml15 suggested here https://www.nairaland.com/2529139/tic-tac-toe-online-game to get an idea of the code
