Ike Cancels September Meeting

Wednesday, September 17th, 2008

Due to Ike, plus that I am starting on new job on Monday, I am canceling the September meeting. In October, we will discuss setting up a testing server on your PC.

Over the next few days, I will continue work on getting our website populated with useful content. I hope all of you fared Ike with minimal problems and I look forward to seeing you in October.

A Little Testing Goes a Long Way

Sunday, September 7th, 2008

September Meeting - Tuesday, September 23 (postponed until October 28th due to Ike)

As your web development skills advance, the benefit of using server side scripting becomes more attractive. However, do you want to run the risk of causing havoc on your live site while you experiment?

This is where setting up a testing server is important. It is not as hard as you think to install Apache, MySQL and PHP. Having the ability for contained testing makes it worth the effort. Join us as we go through a case study on setting up a testing server, installing WordPress and then launching the site live.
