Re: how can i make a web application???

First you write the code, then you compile it.

We help people with their code, your question is way to broad to hope to get an intelligent answer. You want to make a chat app like gchat ? You'll need to learn AJAX and perhaps ASP.NET.

1. Design it
2. Code it
3. Compile it
4. Debug (hopefully not too much if you did step 1 and 2 very well)
5. Deploy it.

Hi
I have seen applications that have a popup dialog that displays help tips on how to use that application.

My question is: Is there a generic name for this dialog so I can search the web and find a snipit of code that does this?

I thought I saw this in visual studio as a template but I can't find it now. Using C# now this may be why.

thanks

Mike

I think of 'tool tips' as the popups over buttons when the mouse hovers.

this is a dialog box that lets you click next to see the application help tip. the dialog also has a check box to 'not show again at startup'

What this called???

You're thinking about the "Tip of the day" dialog box.

Ah - it's just a dialog box, there's nothing to look up. You just need to impliment a setting to not show it again and a collection of items to show on it.

method calling problem between 2 forms

It is your basic dialog box or form. Nothing super fancy about it. You have it get called up when the program starts and have a checkbox if the user doesn't want to see it again. This would require having some kind of datastore to save the configuration.

You could get away with using the splashscreen template and tweak it a bit.

Set up delegates between the forms. There are many articles on this here on code project.

If you are incapable of formulating a search string, that's another good sign that you don't know enough to rely on forums alone, and need to buy a book and work through it.

You can always make a public method in the form2 class that calls filldata...

Hi!
I think your question would be placed here[^] more appropriately. With >17000 articles on CP there's no point in asking these questions in the general forum.
