LAMPer with significant JavaScript experience
I love JavaScript... I really, really LOVE JavaScript! I quite like PHP and HTML/CSS. I've also been forced to develop for IE6 so I love jQuery as well. 5 years of experience after being mostly self-taught but finished off with an MSc in Computer Science - but the years of working experience is where I've earned my stripes.

As a developer of systems for the use of local governments I had to contend with old versions of IE6. With my proclivity for AJAX based solutions this meant that I had to use a library which could cope with differing browsers (either very old or cutting-edge) - jQuery to the rescue!

It's all very well getting data out of a database and being able to manipulate it with script but if it looks like a dogs-dinner when it gets to the client then that's what they'll notice! Besides the DOM is a thing of beauty - CSS is mad as cheese but once you've got your head around it it's lovely!

Good teacher in javascript. He taught me a couple of ways to write nested conditional statements in order to understand it correctly and much much more in the 2 hour session. Highly recommended. Patient and willing to go over material more then once even if I didn't understand something. I am expecting to do more sessions for sure in the future. Self learning gets boring and frustrating at times so good to have a place where you can get help and inspiration.
