Javascript Like Button

Recently I have been responsible for writing the content for DIY Trove. I am a little bit disheartened by how much technical implementation that I haven’t been able to do. As our group is so big it is hard to share the majority of the tasks. At this point I also feel like I have been out of the technical loop for so long that it is hard to catch up.
When voicing this with the team I was given the task of using Javascript to implement a ‘like’ button for our voting system.
I found a great tutorial and am pleased to say I understand the code considering Javascript was not my forte in Introduction to Web Design.

Unfortunately, it is hard to muck around with the code without treading on someone else’s toes/code. As such, Young has overtaken the responsibility for this task and it has been pushed to the side for me.

For now I will start working on the report and preparing for the tradeshow…

For the future here is the link to the tutorial, it works using jQuery and Ajax:
