[pmwiki-users] More cool ZAP snippets up...

Hi all!

Now that ZAPdata is more or less finished (a few technical details I'm
trying to track down), I've had a bit more time to try and put up some
snippets to show (show off?) how powerful the simple ability to easily
store and retrieve data can be on a website.

Some of the NEW snippets now working at WWW.ZAPSITE.ORG include:

Quizzes
ShowHide
PagelistFun
Dice
Counter (Buttons)
Time
GetData
LockForm
etc.

I've been actually surprized how easy it is to get nice behavior out
of this recipe--even in areas I hadn't originally intended.  PM's
suggestions to store data on the same page and use a field: value
format are paying HUGE benefits. Actually--it's because PmWiki is so
powerful, this little recipe can do so much.

So stop by and see some of the snippets.  I have the permissions
specially set so you can test them. Be sure to log in first--using the
guest user account.  It's a security thing--until I have time to set
lock patterns for all the forms.

I plan on putting some more advanced features up a bit later when I
have some time, such as instant messaging, chat/shoutbox, intrasite
mail, email lists, classfieds, member blogs, etc.  But I want to get
my own site more zapified first!

Cheers,
Caveman
