Even though this is an old post, it's been the most helpful! Got my assignment done using it. BIG THANK YOU!

Joseph, I wanted to say thank you as this was a really solid tutorial. BTW, I always find it better to have the mistakes as part of the training so that we get the opportunity to troubleshoot. It enhances the training and really enforces what was covered.

Yes, the mistakes you made were ironically very useful to help demonstrate and identify your debugging methods.   I like how you knew you had a misspelling in one of the variables as opposed to panic about why it didn't work.

Awesome Tutorial! Btw mistakes are actually a good thing because it can shed some light for other programmers to keep them aware and on their toes :)

This was VERY helpful!!!! I am actually glad you made those few mistakes. It shows us what to do when if those errors come up for us! Way to go

Hi, great tutorial, just what I was looking for, thanks.
Know I'm being lazy - but is there a zip file with the code that I can download?

AWESOME VIDEO !!!! been searching all day to find out how to do this and voila you explained exactly what i needed

[MrMackster]

I’m having some issues when I try your script; I’m getting a ‘500’ error code in my Chrome browser and in my Safari browser I just get a blank browser windows.. Regardless, yours is one of the best tutorials because not only do you explain WHAT you’re doing, you explain WHY you’re doing it!! Nice work!
