24 July 2010: Posted photos from Sept 2009-present. However due to the time it takes to manage the photos they will now be managed in Google Picasa.See Photos subdomain for link (someone beat me to "jayden12" so I had to modify it a little). Also improved (reduced) user interface when viewing BW & CVEFAQ with a mobile device.
19 July 2010: Added quotes and other notes from my daily readings from the first half of this year to the usual pages. One new section is the maps. Added hover verse AJAX to all other Rock pages. Started my first Recommendations page for books and mobile apps. Added code so that when viewing some of my Rock pages with mobile devices (with smaller displays) we are taken to an alternate interface with the same content broken into pieces for easier reading & faster downloading (example: BW, CVE). Similarly modified the main domain homepage since onmouseover's don't work well for touch screen devices.

This completes a 6 year endeavor as a lay person to create a first draft. Now we start over and work on the second draft... Also added 5 Keys to Financial Success to my Standards page and 5 quotes to my Favorite Worldly Quotes page (including breaking out a new section for Craig Groeschel).

02 October 2008: Months of piled up changes: Added 56 photos to new 2008 (winter & spring) Photos. Updated CSS for Rock subdomain so text is white on screen but black in print (formerly gray when printed). Added my first side scrolling navigation menu to the Biblical Worldview page. Increased file size of the BW page by 80% (from 150KB to 275KB) by adding piled up notes from my readings of Matthew, Mark, Luke, John, Acts, Romans and 1 Corinthians. New section highlights include Is God a Pacifist, the Promises of God, God Loves Everyone, God Hates Religion, What Did the Prophets Say About Jesus, What Did Jesus Say About Himself, What Did the Apostles Say About Jesus, Spiritual Gifts, Women of the Bible, Do We Automatically Go to Hell If We No Believe in Jesus, the Law Faith and Deeds, Anomalies, Judging, To Be or Not to Be, and Terminology.

01 January 2008: Added 4 photos to the Fall page and comments to all on the page. Updated the purpose explanation of my Biblical Worldview page and the usual additions of verses here and there throughout. Removed the PDF link at the top, it was too much work to keep it synchronized.
16 December 2007: Added Fall photos, gave better names to the movies in Spring, Summer Vacation and Summer pages.
25 November 2007: Added Meaning of Life section to my Biblical Worldview page, as well as a couple dozen verses throughout, most notably to the wisdom and characters of God and Satan sections. (I have plenty more to do, but having three girls under three kind of slows you down!)
26 October 2007: Added a bunch more to my Biblical Worldview page, namely the purpose, lead roles, disecting the ten commandments and external links sections. Also altered the translations section and added dozens of verses throughout. (FYI, the file has doubled in size since May of this year, and that is after removing a few kilobytes worth of NOWRAP's.)

19 October 2007: Finally got around to commenting the photos I posted back on July 28th

Also is the Bible relevant today and extended history of the Bible sections.
29 July 2007: Added my first database! For lack of better idea I made a guestbook from scratch. The point is not a guestbook, the point is to demonstrate an interactive website that displays data from a database. You can access it from my Contact page. Perhaps someday I will have time to research querying the weather or something else more infinitely updating... (Thanks Honey for taking the kids all weekend so I could make all these changes!)
28 July 2007: Added 66 photos to a new Spring page and another 98 to a new Summer Vacation page. Added custom 401 error message for those of you who do not know the password to my protected photos but try your luck anyway. (So far have bothered to make custom error pages 401 and 404.) Added dynamic font resizing to all pages on Rock subdomain. Added question/answer 13 to Creation vs Evolution FAQ. Finally got my Contact page working. (It has been broken since changing hosting providers back in September.)

The Site Map (above) has been updated.

07 October 2006: Added 19 photos to the Summer page. Added a fifth photo to the rotating Hawaii photos on the homepage.
30 September 2006: Ready to release my fire.jayden12.com subdomain. (I made it a couple months ago but decided I had better remove the copywrited material before releasing!) Since I do so much coding at work I figured it was time to make my own reference list of handy website codes and tricks. It is just a skeleton for now, but it is a start. These are my first PHP pages.
16 September 2006: Created photos.jayden12.com subdomain, which is redundant to www.jayden12.com/photos/, but different and fun. Improved left click zoom code to work correctly with FireFox web browser.
09 September 2006: Added over 20 photos to the Summer page.
07 September 2006: Changing hosting providers resulted in a bunch of technical changes. Protected photos changed from using ASP to secure them to server side directory password protection. Contact page will be broken until it can be converted to PHP. These blue themed pages have been reverted back from ASP to HTM, perhaps someday to switch to PHP or some other language that allows for "included" headers and footers.
10 August 2006: Added brand new section for 100% home made Baby Games. Upgraded JavaScript used on my secured photos so that when you click on a photo it doubles in size (indefinitely) and then when you right click it halves in size (indefinitely). Directly related, I added option to dynamically enable and disable the right click context menus on the same pages (so they don't interfere with the shrinking).
24 July 2006: Added 1 photo I left out of the Spring 2006 photos.
15 July 2006: Began Summer 2006 photos page with 16 photos and a video. Added option of telling me your name when entering the password to get into the photos.
04 July 2006: Added 2 videos to Winter photos collection, 51 photos & 19 videos to finish off the Spring photos collection. Yes, I know this is a lot at once, but I put in waay to many hours of overtime at work the last few months, not to mention having two babies, there was not much time to post photos :)
07 May 2006: Added a dynamic 5 minute timer to my countdowns.
29 April 2006: Added photos from Baby 2's dedication to the spring photos.

02 July 2005: Finally figured out how to pass form variables from page to page using only javascript. See Form 5.
