I am a coding GOD (at least until the next issue, anyway)!

Look at me! I'm productive! Tell us who you are!

I have to self promote myself.

After two days of trials, I have finally figured out how to validate PHP radio buttons for a specific answer and not null...

AND IT WORKED! It WORKED! :metal:

Can I tell you there was some serious fist pumping all up in this library today!

We HAVE to get you off PHP.

Flame on!

Well, last year I was going through someone else's code line by line - revising and trying to figure out what the hell I was doing.

This year, I'm actually starting to understand it. Unfortunately, I don't just work exclusively in PHP at the library*. Just for this treasure hunt. So I forgot some things from last year. I want to expand my horizons, but honestly I'm just super geeked that I figured it out :) And by myself! Up until the minute I had the "Aha" moment, I was banging my head against my (quite solid) desk.

I think I deserve mochi.

* Library vendors use the most archaic, ridiculous languages ever (at least to me. I have to do something in a DOS-type language and I was like, 'I am waaay too young for this'). I would love some entrepreneur to make clean, user-friendly and understandable things for libraries. But there's no money in it :(

Such moments are priceless in our profession.
