Slight set back then some more progress
So The other night I was doing some work as I found an issue witht he htaccess file and it not allowing access to files on the server. I also discovered none of the high scores were working in the games as well. So I set about fixing the htaccess file as i thought that would rectify the other issue.
Alas in my attempts to fix this I copied the file over to a different folder and did some changes on it (basically deleting all the current code and putting in different code to allow folder access. This was placed in the folder that I wanted to be able to access. But the file manager had moved the file not copied it and I lost all my working code. This meant the next day i had to re-code it from scratch even though i dont know what I did to fix it last time with my issues I had. I managed to get it to work though with access to the folder's so there was a silver lining.
I then moved onto the design, keeping it simple and plaing about with a copy of bits and pieces. I got this sorted and im going with the idea of only 2 images in there to keep down on load times plus It doesnt have to be too graphical i think. So just the header and footer. I created a simple template and popped everything in and css'd it up. I didnt do it in html5 as I just wanted to see what a working version would look like, but if i get the chance ill re-do the html code to html5 which shouldnt take too long as its not a complicated site.
I also fixed some error's that were popping up in the php error log which should make the code a bit more robust as well as adding in a couple of extra bits and bobs. I still need to strip out all the php code and clense it all, although the way things are going I may just keep it as is as its all working and although it looks messy well its a hell of alot of code on 1 page that make 1 whole site work. I think If i need to add more code to it i will most likely re-write everything again from scratch but for the moment im ok with it with how it is.
Next part of the project is some more styling and I want to add in an image for each item as well. If i can get that working it would be pretty cool and then its onto fixing the high scores issue although I think that may only be fixed with me going into the orig flash files if i have them to edit the calls to the score files. We shall wait and see on that one me thinks.
