Learning Curve
Whilst updating the site I have come across many obstacles. Many were either too large to figure out or something not to waste my time with... In the past I have in the period of a weekend learned Action scripting. In retrospect isn't that difficult of a language. The language is pretty fluid and the "rules" are easily bent to meet requirements. Now PHP is another story.
I learned HTML by accident then the CSS rules just to keep up. PHP is something I have avoided due to the fact I wouldn't really use it all that often because I'm not a web developer. PHP was one of the obstacles that i either had to get through or ignore.
So guess what I've been doing the past 2 days? Yep, learning PHP to fix two lines of code! TWO LINES! It was worth it, because now the gallery images are all scaled properly. I had to fix the Brilliant Gallery module for Drupal. it was just the matter of figuring out how PHP worked.
I call this kind of thing the two day learning curve.
Give me something to learn. In two days I will know enough to work.
