Viewing Entries


Quack. So I should probably find out how to make the viewing entries screen. This is what I ha(d)/have in mind, but I don't know if it's going to work. And I can't try it until the things for the initialization of the array is written...sigh.

Here's the type of "plan" that I'm thinking for the viewing 'o the entries. But as I said before, I can try to program this bit, but nothing will get done until the other array has been created. So I think I'll have to make a temporary array that has bogus values.

I also need to find a way to export from java to HTML. Anyways, onto that now..:D 

There are a few ideas for it including: 
  • String Builder
    • "Adding" all the information for the required HTML (in other words, adding each line individually using ".appends();" and then writing that to an HTML file rather than TXT file. 
  • RenderSnake
    • A list of classes here will provide head and body opening and closing tabs
    • There's a ton of HTML/Java crossovers (For instance: canvas.div(id("header")) in Java is equivalent to <div id = "header">
    • Can also make something Renderable

Oh, and at the fire drill, Vivian and I agreed that I'll do the whole initialize thing - creation of new class, lalala, get and set methods, lala. All of that fun stuff. 

ALSO RANDOM HIDDEN FACT - my posts will probably be super colourful because colours are fun :)

    1. Okay I didn't actually finish my comment there. Chart looks good! Think we can make the comment column in the table automatically stretch out when we need it to?

      Not sure if the fact is so hidden now xD. But yes, mine are going to be a bit more plain since I won't bother with the wonders of multi-colours... ;P

    2. I'm going to find a way to either increase the width of the comments column or make it a "pop-up" cause the table is just way too big.
