As you all know, we started a web development section here on gHacks. After asking for your opinion and talking about it with Martin, we decided to keep writing 1-2 posts a week here, but move most of the material into a new site called Scriptastique.
Right now we only have the blog, but tutorial sections and screencasts are on their way! To keep gHacks readers in the know, I will be doing a weekly short roundup of posts, if you like some of them, head on over to the site, take a look and participate in all the fun! So let’s jump to it, here’s what we covered on week 1.
- Checking MySQL queries for errors
- Creating your first function in PHP
- How the internet works – domains and hosting
- Create cool icons in a flash for your website
- Creating rounded corners using only CSS
We have a few more up there, and you can follow us on Twitter and our RSS feed or join us on Facebook. If you have any questions or comments feel free to let me know!

I looked (and read a few posts) a few times to the new site and i realy (realy) like it. I am looking forward to the tutorial sections ( i wishing it wil be extensive) and screencasts. I think it wil make the site more complete.
I like it. :-P
Making rounded borders with just css is new to me.
Will keep an eye on this ;)
Thanks for your comments :)
I am making the tutorials section extensive. The way I’m trying to be different (appart from screencasts), is that I try and put a bit more information in there.
For instance when explaining about HTML headings, I don’t just tell how to place them, but also some tips on how they affect SEO.
As always, pleae do send suggestions :)
Looks nice, looking forward to it
