Day 9: Detour

Talk about getting side-tracked! I had to put some heavy time into a couple of other projects yesterday and on Tuesday, so I had to step back from my return to my coding journey for a bit, which I HATED.

As a result, I decided to do a little reading today to shore up my CSS basics review before moving onto more complicated topics. While doing that, I realised I didn’t follow the correct hyphenated CSS naming convention, so I went back to clean up my styling. While doing that, I took a closer look at my HTML and realised that I neglected to include value attributes in my “checkbox” <input> elements and sorted that out too.

It was at that point that I decided to mock-up a little order confirmation page for fun (and link it to the same stylesheet).

Then I got curious about how I could get it to pop-up upon submission and I fell down a bit of a rabbit hole and started considering PHP… But that’ll have to wait until my JS review, which has to wait until I finish my CSS review, which I’ve already lost some time on.

Ah, so much to learn, so little time!
