Why should I submit or use a code snippet?

  • Code snippets are blocks of functional code that can make your life so much easier
  • We store your bits of code in a safe place for future use and easy retrieval
  • To share with the rest of the computer world, sharing is good, fame is good
  • Your code will generate site traffic, snippets are posted with a link to your web site
  • To meet programmers and find the help you need to be a successful developer
  • It is easier to learn computer programming one small piece at a time

How to submit your code:

Use the Submit Code form to post your code snippet, add details and upload source files. This form is accessible in the main navigation bar.

How long until my code is posted on the site?

We are informed via email as soon as you submit your code snippet. If your code is submitted during normal business hours, we will be able to verify that it is not spam and publish it within a couple of hours under normal circumstances.

At this point in the site's development we have decided to keep a person in charge of moderating and publishing the submitted snippets. It is good to know that your snippets are in such good hands and have arrived safe to their new home.

What am I allowed to submit?

  • We Do:  Post useful code snippets, written in any computer language.
  • We Don't:  Post spam or advertisements, if you claim your code and people use and appreciate it they will have links to you and your website to see more of your work. The quality and functionality of your work will be advertisement enough.

How do I fill out the Submit Code form?

  1. Snippet Name - Type in a name that best describes your code.
  2. Code Category - Select the category that best describes your code and its language using the dropdown menu. For multiple languages within a single snippet, follow this guideline: Choose the category for the scripting language that controls the markup. For instance, select PHP for PHP/HTML or Javascript for Javascript/HTML.
  3. Tags - Please provide a comma separated list of tags for this snippet. Tags make finding snippets easier. Example tags = tricks,effects,must have
  4. Description and Instructions - Please type in a brief description of what the code does and some instructions. This field accepts basic HTML markup for formatting, so feel free to copy markup text right out of your HTML Editor.
  5. Paste or Type your Code Here - This is reserved for the block of code that is the snippet.
  6. Upload source files - Browse for a zipped folder on your local machine that contains all of the source files. To Zip a folder in Windows: Put all of the source files into a folder and then right click on the folder and select "Send to" and "Compressed (Zipped) Folder".
  7. Personal Data - Fill out your personal data for recognition for your contribution. The Email and Website fields display on the final post so people who use your code can contact you and check out your web site. This is also a great opportunity to create backlinks and generate traffic to your site.
