Btw Picano, I know Javascript and HTML. I'd be willing to help you!
Woo
I'll get back to you on this once midterms are over. Some things will seem a bit intimidating (you don't even have to attempt them if you don't want), but the basic needs for html / js are...
(This bit should be relatively easy, as you don't really need to know what goes on behind the scenes)
Redesign the 'hackEntry' div class.
---This is each hack's personal rectangle of information
---The current design was created solely with character hacks in mind. It would probably be best to design different templates for each type of hack / the data it primarily shows off (pictures, video / music previews, text explanations)
---If you can at least understand simply conditional structures, I can give you a copy of the current formatting PHP function (it's... a bit of a mess right now, but it should make sense if you look at a few real examples of each)
-Just need something that looks good (since I'll have to go through and fill the stuff via PHP / SQL anyway)
(This is another one where you don't need to know too much behind-the-scenes stuff)
Redesign menus
-Not a high priority (to me at least)
-Possibly make it more accessible to access stuff such as PSAs directly instead of lumping them in with texture hacks
-If you can understand the current search / navigation parameters, you can actually set up the links... but otherwise I'll probably just have to go through and fix up the links
-*Right now each link has an onclick function set up to make the standard link into an ajax call, this is one part where jQuery would cut down on a LOT of hardcoded html
(This bit would probably a more intricate knowledge of what is going on. I probably can speed through this once I have time)
Make use of jQuery for all AJAX functionality
-Approve / Delete / Download / Report as well as each bit of page navigation post to a DB page (only the page nav returns actual data, the visible html)
-Currently, it's all pretty sloppily written custom code (most reused functions in hacks.js but some embedded into BrawlView.php)
