.NET Twit Grows

So our Twitter apps are growing... update your apps so you are actually saving your data including the ability to update/edit your previous Tweets.

Sample Code from Week 9 (or is it 10?) is posted to Angel.

Update your interface by Monday, Nov 1.

Next Week: Out Tweet Object!

Multiple Tweets

Now that we've played w/ DataTable and the Gridview control, its time to integrate this into our .NET Twit app.

After you save your Tweet:

1. Add a DateTime Stamp to your Tweet
2. Create a DataTable which will hold your Tweet, your KeyWords, and the DateTime Stamp.
3. Bind the DataTable to a GridView

This aspect of your .NET Twit will be due this Friday, Oct. 23rd. If you have any questions, email me or post a comment here.

Midterm Assignment

I'm not big on written Midterms (you will have a written Final)

Your Midterm project is to build the Keyword parser method for our .NET-Twitter application.

Have the user enter text into a Multiline TextBox - any Keywords the user wishes to enter will need to preceeded by a '#' sign. After the text has been entered the user will hit a submit Button which will do two things:

1. the Textbox will disappear and a Label will display with the same text as that which was entered by the user.
2. A CheckBoxList will display all the Keywords as Items. If a word is selected in the CheckBoxList, highlight the Word in the Label (using html tags)

Also provide a switch back to the Edit Mode (TextBox viewable, Label hidden) where the user can make any changes to the Text - be sure to update the CheckBoxList. Words should only appear once in the CheckBoxList, but the user can Keyword the same word multiple times in the text.

This assignment will be due on Friday, October 16th, by 11:59pm

Class Project.

Our class project will consist of designing a Twitter-Like application. There will be 3 to 4 parts to this app. Each part will be a independently graded project. First part of our application will be the input.

Design a text editor with the following features:
1. A TextBox which can hold 250 characters
2. The ability to preview the post
3. The ability to edit a post
4. Search and Replace - Create a DropDownList which will hold each word (only once) and TextBox to replace the selected word from the DropDownList with the text in the TextBox.
5. Character Count
6. Word Count

The TextEditor will be due Friday, October 16th.
