Hi LC Pros and the Rest of the world more experienced than me:
I am searching for a "navigation system" for my>200 card camp
attendance project. Pointers welcome.
I'm always intrigued by questions like this, because it gives me a
chance to try out a new use case, which usually leads to me being
impressed with LiveCode again.
My code is at http://its.ec/static/Namesearch.zip (case is important).
I started at http://listofrandomnames.com to create the list of names I
used.
The stack is saved with the names already in 200 cards. If you want to
change the names, just make a new file with the names (one per line),
and click on the 'load' button.
When the stack is opened you're shown card 1 with 200 names in a
scrolling list. If you click into the single-line search box and start
typing, the list dynamically updates.
Of course, this is an incredibly naive brute-force approach. The names
are not sorted in any way, so each search is a linear top to bottom
search.
Still, it's okay for a 30 minute hack job.
Hope someone finds it interesting.
-Ken
