lol, i'm not even close to as qualified as you, nor will I ever be

All i've done is taken a 1 school year (2 Semester) Web page design & HTML Class. I have two books which cover HTML,very basic C++ , and some Visual Basic.

I made a topic about the Web Browser i'm making, Eagle. I've actually progressed somewhat in the coding, a couple of my friends have also progressed a bit. Still though, it is not that hard, so i cant brag a bit. Oh, I guess another project is getting a online Gaming server working...

I envy you

Ok I hope I don't embarassed by those with more credentials, but here we go.

Training
2 Years Computer Science at University. (Degree currently deferred).
2 Years Information Technology Degree Majoring in Web Development and Multimedia at University (Currently studying).

Skills

XHTML/CSS - Excellent (as it should be for the easy stuff)
PHP - Moderate (I am no expert...yet, learning more right now).
SQL (includes MySQL, Oracle, SQL Server....all main RDBMS) - Excellent.
ASP - Moderate (Same story as PHP).
JSP - Excellent.
Java - Good (In between Excellent and moderate....use java for sockets and Servelets..as well JSP statements so...).
XML/XSLT (Stylesheets) - Excellent.
SVG - Excellent (Though who actually uses SVG anyway).
Javascript - Excellent (May as through it in there...JS and Java are different)

Major Projects
err, I'll do my best here.
Basic Website, included XHTML, javascript (just form validation and a menu I made), CSS...and an SVG page, implemented with frames. - My first university project.

Above website implemented in XML with XSLT Stylesheet...nothing special.

Java Servelet Messageboard, used apache Tomcat as a server. (Very basic in terms of message boards).

JSP MessageBoard, as above but not servelet implemented.

PHP/SQL (Oracle) Ebusiness - Made this outside of uni for an actual business, very proud of it actually...till the business folded because they charged outrageous prices.

hey fellows - I'm still in high school so I am virtually no training except what I've taught myself. I'm currently making a website for my mom for her photography business but that's about it. If I get stuck or need ideas, may i call upon ye fine gentlemen to help a grasshopper?

Well here is my portfolio site: just a beginner http://mrvworx.moved.in im more on design... css good xhtml good php not much javascript or dom not much - creativity excellent

how is working with JSP? I have never really worked with that, I usually stick to PHP/MYSQL stuff, as it costs virtually nothing in software. I have programmed in java before, but I must confess, it is not really my cup of tea.

Well, my credentials are not that solid yet:
1 year, computer engineering, University of California.

Favorite language - C++.

Projects - minor coding projects of my own. Such as a program to help me remember my passwords. It is different from just a txt doc, because it have to be decoded by my program before it can be viewed. Now, my codes are really simple to crack, yet they take a lot of effort to crack, simply because I am the only one that uses it, and so no one have ready made apps to crack it.

**Zuwxiv** · September 08, 2006, 01:22 AM

Java: Moderate

I use iWeb, an Apple product, to make websites, so I don't have to worry much about that.

But I'm put to shame by all of you... (Well, I did get a 5 on the AP computer science test)

I do know XHTML and CSS pretty well but I never really got very good at making a nice looking website. Coding the markup is pretty straight forward but I'm not the most artistic of people - I need to work on graphics design before I can accomplish a good design. However, I've dropped web design for the time being in favour of programming in C++. So no credentials for poor sheepie.
