My new free template Hi everyone, I'd like to apologize for my failure to deliver july free template, but I was actually on a sick-leave. However I've yet stolen a couple of hours to create this new teplate for you. It's clean and simple, and you may see it in action here: http://www.demo.jazzign.com Download it here: http://www.elxis-srbija.org/index.php?option=com_docman&task=cat_view&gid=22&Itemid=48 Read more...

Web design timetable Some of you have probably seen this one, but since I'm creating a lot of templates these days, I just had to post it in order to give myself some relief. Anyway, this timetable is really a must-see for everyone who even think of getting into web design/development. It's hilarious, but true. Read more...

Welcome
If you stumbled on to this site, you must be wondering what "jazzign" means. Actually, nothing... I just thought that the word "jazzign" would be the most appropriate term to describe me. As I've spent almost 15 years on playing jazz, and thus, trying to understand it, I thought that I could incorporate my musical knowledge into my current work (design). And guess the word that came out! After all, both are just two faces of the same thing: art. I found out that in jazz, it's not smart to play too much, and so it's not smart to "overdesign" things, either. The list of similarities goes on and on... So it all unaviodably lead to one sentence: "dare to be simple". You may find out more about me through this site (if you want to, that is). I wish you a good time. PS I would, however, like you to know that, if you join my site, you will be able to post articles with your signature and a link to your web site, and thus advertize yourself. Speaking of advertising, I must take advantage of the situation and advertize my wife's site... And for that matter... visit: jazzmine.jazzign.com .

Ultimate template? part II

I have created a template for Elxis CMS, based on my "Ultimate template", the tutorial I wrote .HERE I promissed to some of my friends that I will be posting one free template every month, so you might take this template as the beginning of that... This template is totally made to illustrate my tutorial, and for that matter, it is developed from the "Ultimate template". So, as I promised, here it is. Just click on the pic below:

And remember: have fun!!!

Some people warned me about a bug with IE6 and top menu in my template. Thank you.

This bug is easy to repair through CSS:

.subhead {clear:both;
float: left;
margin-left:180px} <-- this is the buggy code

Open your template_css.css, and replace the above code with this one:

.subhead {clear:both;
float: left;
width:100%;
padding-left:180px}

Sorry about this... and thank you once more for the warning.

Writing your own MySql class

For many scripts that you may be thinking of coding the chances are you will want to use object orientated programming. Its cleaner code, easier to work with and a lot more proffesional.

So to start off with our MySql class we need to set the class and define some variables.
