Hey everyone.
I have a side navigation that I want to give the effect of a SPA. I.e. when a link is clicked, it will just change some text, not updating the entire page, just some paragraphs, and images.
Can i do this with jQuery?
Josiah Morales

Christopher Barnes

Sup /wdg/, my sister in law asked me if I could implement, on her professional website, a form her customers could fill and it would generate a pdf (or odf) filled with the information they user had input earlier.
There is a constraint : her website doesn't use a database because she hasn't needed it up to, maybe, now.
I just wanted to know if such thing could be possible without having to create a database and implement it.
Is it possible to do that without a database? I was thinking about using a json or some other type of flat file. Is it possible to do this as is, ie with no database or even a json?

I keep seeing these type of css classes everywhere, does anyone know what library are they using? I assume it's css in js stuff
Ian Peterson
the generation of the PDF is probably more complex than the form stuff. you need SSH access to that server to install software which can generate PDF-s (from html or whatever).
but if you have SSH access, what prevents you from installing a database server as well to save the input?
I think styled components (in react generates such classes). Never used it though, mixing css with JS makes only sense if you create modules for NPM (and even then people get pissed off, since it becomes hard to overwrite those styles with random classes)

I think the generation will be ok, I'll just use a plugin (her website was made with wordpress wordpress), something like gravitypdf.com
>but if you have SSH access, what prevents you from installing a database server as well to save the input?
Time, or rather the lack of it. I just want it done quick, it's just about filling a simple pdf with personnal infos, plus an insurance company and it outputs an estimate.

Wordpress uses mysql database and most form plugins already save the data to the Wordpress db (you could even write your own plugin and save data to it)
