Join our cool SCALE project at Club Night

nospam@example.com (Jim Workman) — Wed, 07 Dec 2005 22:08:00 -0500

LAMPsig will have a booth at SCALE 4X, on Feb 11-12.

In order to show off the sexiness of LAMP, we will create a table of the SCALE presentation schedule from a MySQL database. Then using PHP, SVG, an possibly AJAX, we will make the display interactively zoom into the details of each presentation.

Local members will get together on Wednesday Club Nights at CalTek.Net to work on the project.

If you cannot make it to the meetings but would like to be part of the team, please post to the User List so we can include you.

Directions to CalTek.Net are on this page.
