My Discovery of CSS2

I just read more about CSS2 and I discovered alot of new tricks on CSS2, specially on selectors and pseudo elements, and since I am a self-study guy, it's my first time to know the standard terms for each part of the CSS StyleSheet,(rule,selector[this one I already know before],block,property,value and the at-rules)

This is a very interesting new addition to my skill and I can't wait(I already implemented some of these[specially the cute :first-letter pseudo-class]) to use the new selectors I discovered.

My First RegExp Try

Whenever I see the pattern I see on the examples of php.net/preg_match, I get much frustrated because I can't understand a thing, but when I saw the term "regular expressions" on a job pre-test question and it got connected with preg_match.

I discovered that this pattern is called regular expression which is explained in Regular Expression Details on php.net and from this I studied about regular expressions and applied it tonight using my new PHP code result previewer, and here's one of my bookmarked test

Learned the logic of MySQL in one day

I was always afraid to learn MySQL because the search strings and the functions looks really greek to me, but when I saw the Job openings always say PHP AND MySQL (yes like a programming logical operator "&&" XD) I started to make my move towards learning SQL.

I started by printing out all the functions this morning and read it after my MS-Dos Debug exam(which I am much prepared of and finished so early). By that reading I discovered it was so simple, nothing to be afraid of.

I have tested all the logical "tiers" I created and I made them all correctly and now I must take it toward object oriented functions, but I hope the Database uptime of 000webhost would cooperate XD
