ten / assignments

assignment 10.1

write a program that keeps an updatable note in a cookie. don't forget to strip html code from the note before saving it.

you can use this html code as a starting point...

<form method="post" action="note.php">
    <textarea name="note" placeholder="kittens say meow.">***</textarea>
    <input type="submit" value="update" />
</form>

remember, the content of a textarea goes between the textarea and /textarea tags where *** is. replace *** with your desired content string. don't forget " is a special character in php and needs to be escaped as \" inside variables.

assignment 10.2

write a program that keeps a running tally of how many times a user refreshes a page in a single session. it should show what date/time they last loaded the page.

each time it refreshes, it should display a random message. you can choose the messages.

assignment 10.3

write a program that allows users to add items to a shopping list stored in a cookie.

you can use this html code as a starting point...

<form method="post" action="list.php">
    <input type="text" name="item" placeholder="3 large bananas" />
    <input type="submit" value="+" />
</form>

remember, while session variables can be arrays, cookies are always strings. don't forget to add new lines between items.

you should display the whole list along with the ability to add a new item every time.

assignment 10.4

write a program that allows the user to submit a word then have another user guess letters until it has been solved, counting the number of guesses with and without matching letters and not allowing duplicate guesses.
