 Code Sample
For Log In :
• if (TextBox2.Text != "")
{
ds = DBAccess.Fetchdata("SELECT * FROM Userinfo WHERE
UserID='" + id + "' AND Password='" + TextBox2.Text + "'");
if (ds.Tables[0].Rows.Count == 0)
Label1.Text = "Wrong I.D. or password";
else
{
Session["uid"] = TextBox1.Text;
Response.Redirect("userhome.aspx");
}
}
• For Creating a topic :
• DataSet ds;
int max = 0;
int n, i = 0;
ds = DBAccess.Fetchdata("SELECT Topicno FROM Topic");
n = int.Parse(ds.Tables[0].Rows.Count.ToString());
if (n > 0)
{
for (i = 0; i < n; i++)
{
if (int.Parse(ds.Tables[0].Rows[i][0].ToString()) > max)
{
max = int.Parse(ds.Tables[0].Rows[i][0].ToString());
}
}
}
string topicid = "topic_" + (max + 1).ToString();
string date = DateTime.Now.ToLongDateString();
int z = max + 1;
bool r = DBAccess.Savedata("INSERT INTO Topic VALUES ('" + topicid + "','" +
TextBox1.Text + "','" + TextBox2.Text + "','" + Session["uid"].ToString() + "','" + date +
"','" + "N" + "'," + z + "," + 0 + ")");
if (r == true)
{
bool x = DBAccess.Savedata("INSERT INTO Topictype VALUES ('" +
DropDownList1.SelectedItem.Text + "','" + topicid + "')");
Response.Redirect("userhome.aspx?ctpc=1");
}
• To display a topic :
• user = Session["uid"].ToString();
id = Request.QueryString["id"];
Label12.Text = id;
DataSet ds = DBAccess.Fetchdata("SELECT
TopicName,Details,UserID,Creationdate,ratting FROM Topic WHERE TopicID='" +
id + "'");
Label4.Text = ds.Tables[0].Rows[0][0].ToString();
Label5.Text = ds.Tables[0].Rows[0][1].ToString();
Label7.Text = ds.Tables[0].Rows[0][2].ToString();
Label8.Text = "on " + ds.Tables[0].Rows[0][3].ToString();
Label14.Text = ds.Tables[0].Rows[0][4].ToString();

For posting Comment :

• filename = id + "_" + user + "_" + DateTime.Now.Millisecond.ToString()
+ ".jpg";
FileUpload1.PostedFile.SaveAs(Server.MapPath("Topicmedia\\" +
filename));
url = "~/Topicmedia/" + filename;
bool r = DBAccess.Savedata("INSERT INTO Opinion VALUES ('" + id + "','"
+ user + "','" + TextBox1.Text + "','" + url + "','" +
DateTime.Now.ToLongDateString() + "')");
if (r)
Label11.Text = "Posted Successfully!!!“;
• To rate a topic :
• DataSet ds;
ds = DBAccess.Fetchdata("SELECT * FROM Topic WHERE TopicName='" +
Label4.Text + "'");
int t1;
t1 = int.Parse(ds.Tables[0].Rows[0][7].ToString());
if (RadioButton1.Checked == true)
{
t1 = t1 + 1;
bool x = DBAccess.Savedata("UPDATE Topic SET ratting=" + t1 + "
WHERE TopicID='" + Label12.Text + "'");
Response.Write("Rating Accepted!");
}
if (RadioButton2.Checked == true)
{
t1 = t1 - 1;
bool x = DBAccess.Savedata("UPDATE Topic SET ratting=" + t1 + "
WHERE TopicID='" + Label12.Text + "'");
Response.Write("Rating Accepted!!");
}
RadioButton1.Visible = false;
RadioButton2.Visible = false;
rate.Visible = false;
• To contradict :
• string receiver=((Label)e.Item.FindControl("Label13")).Text;
string tbox=((TextBox)e.Item.FindControl("TextBox2")).Text;
string sender = Session["uid"].ToString();
bool x = DBAccess.Savedata("INSERT INTO Contradiction VALUES('" +
Label12.Text + "','" + sender + "','" + receiver + "','" + tbox + "','" +
DateTime.Now.ToLongDateString() + "')");
if (x)
Response.Write("Posted!!!");

---- These are the important codes that made “CALYPSO”

unique.

Here are some snapshots of “CALYPSO” given below….

FUTURE SCOPE
• Some more upgradation can be done
on “CALYPSO”. Such as, we can put
the operations like “Add Friends”,
”Scrap your friend” etc. seen on the
famous community sites. Also we can
add user specific photo album etc.
