Audrey WebApp
Hopefully this should be fairly straightforward.
First the requirements:
The code in this zip file must run on a web server that processes ASP pages. It has been verified to work on Windows 2000 Server and I have been told that it also works on Windows 2000 Professional running Personal Web Server.
All you have to do is drop the "Audrey" folder off the root of your web server.
Audrey WebApp is comprised of three applications
Contacts Database
Recipe Database
Digital Picture Frame/ScreenSaver
Contacts Database
The Contacts Database should be self explanatory. This is just my updated version of the phone list taped to the wall by the kitchen phone. I've divided it into four groups: "Family", "Friends", "Neighbors" and "Businesses"
"Family", "Friends" and "Neighbors" is basically identical code so feel free to dump everyone into the same bucket if you want. It would be very easy for someone to comment out the links to the other two.
"Businesses" are a little different in that your most often looking for a company name. The code is similar but searches are done by business name instead of a persons first or last name.
Recipes Database
The Recipes Database is different in that it is a view only application. To enter recipes you must use Microsoft Access 2000. The database is an adapted version of one I found on the Microsoft Website, all of the ASP code is original. I've included five of my favorite recipes to start it off.
Digital Picture Frame/ScreenSaver
This was the original application that I created and the code hasn't changed from my original version. The goal was to turn the Audrey into a Digital Picture Frame while not is use. Operation is simple and I've included one photo to start things off. Feel free to delete.
Under the "Audrey" folder you will see a sub-folder named "Pictures". Drop your 640x480 JPEG or GIF files in this folder. That's it. Clicking on the "Screen Saver" link in the lower right corner will put the Audrey into Digital Picture Frame mode. Your Audrey browser should be set for full screen. You can set it to full screen by hitting the browser button twice. While in Digital Picture Frame mode, touching the picture will take you back out to the "index.asp" page in the "Audrey" directory. The rotation time is set to 60 seconds by default but you can change this to whatever you want by changing the value of "strTime" in "ScreenSaver.asp".
Terms of Use
Audrey WebApp can be used and modified as much as you like for personal use. Feel free to share it with your friends.
Audrey WebApp can't be used in whole or part for any commercial reason or publication without prior permission from me.
A lot of people are probably going to say, "Why didn't you do it this way?". The simple answer is that I created Audrey WebApp for my own use. I did add a few features like being able to easily change the color scheme in "incHeader.asp" to accommodate other users.
If you use and like Audrey WebApp let me know. If you find a bug, or have a suggestion for a feature, let me know that to.
