[navigation] root/asp/ConquerMarks
An online favorites/bookmark organizer is a nice tool. You are
able to maintain your favorites in one location and you don't need
to make a backup of them, when you reinstall your computer. I've made such
a service and you are able to download all ASP source for it for
free. It has been build upon an Access 2000 database, but you are
able to run it using an older version. The hardest part, was to
realize one of my 'must-have' goals: I wanted it to contain
multiple levels, thus I'm able to have a favorite in a group ASP,
which is a child of Programming, which again is a child of
Computer which may be a child of Hobby .. well, you get the
drift.
To archive this goal, I will have to loop
through each node in my favorites tree, but only if a specific
parent is expanded. If it's collapsed, I just print its name and
move to next node.
Furthermore, I wanted to make it easy to
maintain favorites, e.g. you should be able to move a favorite
to another folder using only one click. When you use ConquerMarks,
you will have one tree showing all your needed information.
When you click a little edit symbol  ,
you're redirected to a page showing all information for this
favorite (or folder, if that's what you selected). From this
page, you select e.g. a new parent, simply by selecting it from a
similar looking tree in the bottom section.
In order to keep your list of bookmarks open, a
small floater has been developed. This window has only a
dimension of 180x450 pixels and thus doesn't fill up the entire
screen. The floater uses almost the same methods as the core
application, but minor changes had to be done in order to fit
bookmarks in this window. To open this window, a simple JavaScript
is used:
function openCompactMode()
{
var m_compact
m_compact = window.open('compact.html',
m_compact,
'toolbar=no,width=180,height=450,resizable=1');
m_compact.focus();
}
The above code snippet opens a browser window
without any menus and toolbars.
