All things being equal,  The employee can't be richer than the employer.

In the case of Bus driver and Bus owner, \

The owner can only peg the amount to be delivered but not the amount the driver can take home.

So even if he makes 100k and the delivery due is 5k then he owns the rest.

The owner also bears the major risk (repair servicing etc etc).

Business Owners Rules!

^E / _S / ^B / _I


CashFlow Quadrant

- Own a software company
- Be a computer Guru ,  and work at my own pace (though all the pin i own now is from computer)
- write inspirational books
- Own a very large stocks
- Well am a writer i want to continue in that.
- Empower youth through brain-dump
- Become a renown public speaker

Both have a very good feature!

But in my own case i'd rather study web development to the maximum possible. Cos all those application they claim to be developing will still need to be available online,  so,  we will do that.

Those very complex softwares will still have web version. Think about image manipulation and text formating. This is just a tip,  the growth continues!

Everyone needs web .


Think about Mobile app!

1. Make sure there is no space at the top of the page
2. make sure u have not outputed any data before using the function

<?php
if (!$_GET['topic_id'] ){

header("location: prevpage.php";
exit;
}

?>

Ask let see wat we can do.

Yea i love that. I will put that up soon.

@Seun
Nairaland is good and i dont see any treat posed by phpng. Strictly for php programming.!

I am very sure some of you guys know me as a PHP evangelist,  I thereby invite you all to join this php user group. We can share ideas and solve problem for one another. And develop something great.

If you are a guru in PHP please join as your knowledge and experience is needed to make other nigerians good.

If you are a newbie,  you will get resource and helps from all this professionals.

Follow this link. http://groups.google.com/group/phpng

Then join, its free

Its goes this way,

I loved computer, 
I do not have money,  I went to work for a 5k per month
I wanted to become a programmmer,  I saved my salary then went to a computer school
i wanted to become a web developer, I then started learning HTML
I wanted to have a PC of my own,  Then work with my knowledge of html earn money
I wanted to have a website of my own, I went for a free hosting

life is just like that,  when you want something. First have it iin mind you wont get it free (even if in the long run u get it) and don't make free  your focus.

The illustration above is a personal experience.

"You can obtain anything you want in life if you know the rules of life,  you get according to what you put in"

The person that loved computer then,  now teaches computer education
The person that needed a PC now have two PCs,  now have access to the brand new laptop
The person that needed website then,  now gives out website
The person that wanted to become a programmer,  now earn a living programming and teaching it.

Just take little step. By starting small where you are. Help will come on your way.

One thing i know is if you say you will give something for free, and later u didnt, i wont get hurt. Cos its a gift, you only gv it when your pleased. And life goes on and where still friends. Thats me.

remember:

"Dont shoot for the stars,  shoot for the moon and if u fail, you will land amongst the stars"
Try to work and own one and u may be luck to have it free.

Set your table/div width and height to 800*600 then centralised it. Have you ever viewed yahoo page on ur system? You will see it stand in the center and the width and height fit with it.

just do that.

hmm!

People who can use VS.net efficiently.

Programos Software Comp. needs someone who is good at VS.net 2005. I heard from an insider that they need close to 3 web developers for there WEBSTONE software or so.

U may post your knowledge of the program (VS .net 2005) so  ill see if you can handle it  then ill direct you to the person in-charge.

knowledge of Microsoft technology will be an  Advantage.

Make sure u validate for a valid email address. So we will add a validation function to it.

when u need the value from a variable use double quote. so with his quote i think he's right.

Actually,  I attempted the assignment. After all the coding,  the stuff failed to compile. I was stucked! But i came online for help no response.

So I tried to restart the assignment  to enable me see where i went wrong.

But thats no excuse for me.

I am working with java now using Netbeans. ( Thanks to Mimoh who gave me the CD) Though am also engaged in alot of project "stockbrokerage web app","Mini-ecommerce", Elearning site and a government e-tax solution which i was developing with PHP( delta state) wish i had to complete with same time.

I'd to split my time,

But am back with java. Now i learns alone.

Fixed appointment online couldnt make it , Yahoo palava

Tryin to see if i can use googleTalk

I can't check my yahoo email, i can't chat with the messenger. Is yahoo having problem?

Are you experiencing it? As at 3:05pm Nigerian time.

Good Talk SBU.

Dont start by stoping,

There is market in NIgeria IT industry, the earlier you tap into it the better. Though for now it may seem "no-money" put if u stick with it, and following the step above ( From SBU) ur on ur way to success. Nigeria is the best place for you to start now.

as in invest in IT.

lol

Well, If you know you can bring up something unique and better, I dont it Nairaland existence should be a "Block". We are in a free world, we can even participate in both forums. Its all about bring out something unique. I think if we have as many as possible, there wont be monopoly or pose.


NOTE: neva ment to hurt noone, na ma mind a speak

We have link here

www.groups.google.com/group/webdeang

we can alll share idea and brainstorm on bringing this dream to a reality.

Am developing a good proposal to back this up.

PHP can achieve just anything you want to achieve in web development. Though php was developed to enable u develop web ware as fast as possible, that was why the architecture (first release)was not well developed compared to java. But this days we alot of frameworks that have  improved this language. PRADO etc. and d uncoming ZENDFRAMEWORK  am taking a look at this frameworks.

PHP's OOP concept has also being improved,  has u know, most features are from java,  so java is like a brother to PHP,  In the nearer feature i see php be as robust as java.
