Coding conventions

Introduction When working in this project you are to follow some conventions. We want to keep a good consistency in the code, including variable names, indentation, etc. This will make it easier for newcomers to the project to realize HOW WE develop.

** PHP ** Sort of Java-like, to keep an object oriented feel. "CamelCase".

• var aVariableName

• public function aFunctionName()

• class AClassName

JavaScript

** HTML **

The following is some general comments on best practices when designing website: http://www.hotdesign.com/seybold/

HTML Form name conventions:

      $formName = $this->_fullname."{MessageName}";
      <form name = "$formName" method = "post" >
            <input type="hidden" name="_message" value="{MessageName}" />
            <input type = "hidden" name="_target" value="$this->_fullname">
            <input value ="signup" type = "button" onclick = 'JavaScript:sndmsg("$formName")'><br />
      </form>
