have you played a particular chord on the keyboard and you had a melancholy(sad) feel? Then you played another one and you felt like 'what's this?'

The first one's minor chord, the second? I don't know.

lemme just say Major.

Canme4u:
Nice 1 @op

ma question is not about your topic. I just wanna ask you to put me through cos am a newbie.

I wanna start learning programming from w3school but I don't know which one to start with. Many article just dey there and I don't know the one to start with as I don't know anything about programming.


I would be delighted if u can be ma guide.


Thanks.

This should help.

And if you ever wish to become a web app developer, my personal advice is that you go to w3schools and learn it as the languages are arranged.

[size=35pt]Pls for the sake of God Almighty or whatever god or diety you serve, DO NOT CIRCUMCISE YOUR FEMALE CHILD OR ANY FEMALE AT ALL!!! IT IS PURE WICKEDNESS!!!



... AND CURSE YOU IF YOU EVER TRY THAT!! [/size]

show them love, give them attention, lead by example and give them a fu.ckung FREEDOM!!!


Although, too much of anything/everything is bad sha.

gameboi:

zeroshadow:
This thread will soon be closed.

na you wan close am?

henryobinna:
let me ask you a question, how does how the developer designed his forum concern a business guy who comes online on nairaland to socialise?

because the guy you call social is concered, btw if you read the topic clearly you would realise that this is just my opinion and my opinion alone. I'm not saying nl should upgrade by fire by thunder.


Gerrit?

gameboi:
I'd score you 60% on that one. What if I say all sounds mustn't always please the ear? Would you agree?

since you're my oga I've got no objection.


All I havr to say is, explain?

henryobinna:
bro lets forget this argument but still I doubt you get my drift

yea I thought I lost it.

but here is the summary, without html5 doctype all those code fragments I listed can't work.

gameboi:
Erhm... As a keyboardist, what's your definition of MUSIC? Let's start with that.

Music is the combination of sound that please the hear.

Edited

As a keyboardist, Music is the combination of painstakingly combinated and created sounds which follows a pattern.

henryobinna:
now you're going another way, me talking from the viewer's point, switching from html4 to html5 cos of the doctype declaration(of which I know nothing aout) is pointless and meaningless to me as a viewer/visitor. that's my point.

cos it doesn't concern the visitor if the developer forgot the whole code or not, all a visitor wants is a functional site. period! not helping the developer

it actually affect the user directly or indirectly.

Like I said earlier neither of the two abi na three html4 doctypes works with all tag, which means if you are gonna change one little thing and the current doctype doesn't work with the new tag you want to add, you have to pick another doctype that suits the new tag and that does not guarantee the new doctype will work with all the current doctype tags. Which means you're gonna do some copy, paste, editing and deleting here and there which actually affects the users/visitors.



Even though html5 doctype does not support all these old tags alone;

<acronym>
<applet>
<basefont>
<big>
<center>
<dir>
<font>
<frame>
<frameset>
<noframes>
<strike>
<tt>

that's according to http://www.w3schools.com/html/html5_intro.asp

but atleast you'll know it worths it, because you are upgrading and not static.

JayKayMaybachz:
The app a'int got what i just mentioned now, it only got notification for fp articles... thats all

Thank God I haven't downloaded it.

Anyway, I think Oga Seun is doing something about it.

JayKayMaybachz:
Yeah ... we need an app, just like facebook.. with notification for mentions, followed topics, followed boards, shares, likes etc and then unlike button as well

I thought we have one app like that, the download link is at the bottom of every page on NL although it's only available on android platform for now, so if you don't have a droid just forgerrit.


Although I haven't checked the app out sha.

Rexphobia:
I don't understand.

This might help.

JayKayMaybachz:
Nice idea brov .... But will Oga Seun look into this

let's just hope he'll look into it.


But one thing I know for sure is that whether sooner or later NL will/must uprage!

Warrabout the hater, who come to hate?

Atimes I wonder who really paid for those guys.

Anyway, haters will hate!
Potatoes will potate!!

henryobinna:
I know I know I know again.

I know its long and can be easily forgotten,
but tell me, how does that concern the viewer/visitor of the forum? does he know what happened? a resounding NO!
so that number one should be blotted out

Although I don't really know much about html4 doctype but the last time I checked there are two html4 doctypes and neither of the two work with all tags.

In other words, if you wish to become a 'stand up' programmer you've got to cram the two long doctypes.

Why cram two easily forgettable doctypes when you can know one unique universal doctype?

holatoj:
Can't really wait for Nl to change to html 5 , but wen z it going to take place

It all depends on NL CEO.

henryobinna:
I agree with many/somr of your reasons but the first.
how the fu.cck does the doctype declaration concern you? are you the one writing the codes?

easy man!

I personally do not like that doctype declaration, that aside it's long and you make on mistake like this, it won't work unlike the portable html5 doctype.

Yungwizzzy:
We'll look into it

thanks

Better!

NaijaChild:
Am nt a computer guru and do not know anything about programming but from the way you have described it..I think NL should upgrade to this htmL5

Keshi anytime any day.

Ok. without any ado at all, here are my reasons:

1. Doctype Declaration: This actually top my list because it's the first thing a Web application developer would write even if he's creating another Facebook, Google or Nl. <!Doctype html> . That's it! Simple, portable, unique, dynamic and precise. The long, lengthy and boring html4 doctype declaration is no longer needed.

2. Web Storage: Imagine writing a story that touches the heart or writing a poem for your e-crush, because that is what's trending in romance section and all of a sudden your phone alerts you that your battery is below 5% and before you could say Jack, your phone don die! Chaii!!

But with the help of html5 web storage, your data will be saved indefinitely on your browser till the next time you wish to go online and complete your stoty and when I say indefinitely I mean forever! .

3.Geolocation: This is also a very important effizy that I think should be added to NL.
Assuming I want to do business with a fellow Nlander in business, phone, carrier or computer section all I've got to do is to track his device with GPS and we'll get our business done. *clears throat* dazzal.

4.Application Cache: Now that's what Karleb's taking about . You see? With this I can view the whole of NL without MTN(I mean without any data/mb).

Now let's assume Nl added this great function to her home page alone and we all know Nigerians like news like kilode, if you doubt me then I'm happy to tell you that that boring Network news is one of the most viewed programs in Nigeria. That's a fact!

As I was saying joor, ... and I informed my friends about it and they too informed their friends and the whole thing became a trending topic which is equal to more traffic for Nl which is equal more money and fame for Nl and Seun Osewa.

5.Change: As we all know the only thing that keep changing constantly is change itself, so I personally think html4 is old and it's time to move on.

...with my well articulated points I think I'm able to convince you beyond any reasonable doubt why NL should upgrade to html5,

Thanks.

jhumong:
yea.....buh...she doesnt even want to reply chat again or pick calls......the worst she said was that she dont deserve me.....and i was like.... thats not ur decision to make..na me go decide who deserve me nao.. ...bt still...samething

Nice line, ama cram this one.

Math!!! ... and don't even talk about further math 'cause I threw that thing away before writing WAYEC.

eliment: The fact is the number of women outstrips the men in our society

You might be right, but that's not the reason our sisters don't get married on time or so they claim.


Their reason is that they're no marriageble men around, you could ask your sister if you think say na lie.
