Who i am.
Hi there. My names Matt and i live in Lincoln, England. Im a painter and decorator by trade, and have a hobbyist interest in websites and web development, more spicificly php. I had a book on PHP and MySQL years ago since lost. I've just been out and bought:
PHP and MySQL for Dynamic Web Sites, fourth Edition. By Larry Ullman.
Its been a great read so far and Larry has a grate way of explaining things. Much better than my previous book.
What I want to achieve.
I want to make myself a little web app that I can access from anywhiere with ether a phone, tablet or pc. I want to be able to fill in a form with my invoice information and on clicking submit I want the date to be entered into a database, create a pdf with that info and email it to me, save it to my server, and email it to my client. I want to be able to distingwish between contractors I work for and private client as my invoices are different foreach. The use of templates for the webapp and the pdf's generated would be grate too. And lastly, im conciderinhg using a language file somehow just in case when I've got it done I want to release it for download by others.
I know there's some open source software out there like simpleinvoices but it doesn't really fit my needs, and I think its over complicated for what I need.
P.s. oh crap, I've just read that back to myself. I think that's a bit ambishush for a noodie.
