Import your contacts from excel to your nokia phone using ovi

Well, it's easy.

Use javascript.

Inject the script, using firebug or something with a javascript console.

The batch is something like this:
document.getElementById('firstName').value = 'me'; document.getElementById('mobile').value = '22222222'; javascript:com.ovi.contacts.quickAddContact();

You can add email and last name.


Step by step:
1.Logon on ovi.com.
2.Go to contacts tab.
3.Use the excel with your contacts
4.Use the following formulas to generate the right commands:
=CONCATENATE("document.getElementById('firstName').value = '";B2;"';")
=CONCATENATE("document.getElementById('mobile').value = '";C2;"';")
javascript:com.ovi.contacts.quickAddContact();

5.Then copy the generated cells, copy it and run it using firebug.
I will put the sample excel.

Cheers,
Moleiro

Carvoeiro Vila Nova

I'm developing a site making use of JQuery combine with asp.net:
Vila Nova - Praia do Carvoeiro

The goal is to create a nice site with some java script with nice menus, date picker and other stuff, but without forgetting the accessibility issue. Well, with JQuery, you can do it all.

It's very easy to do it, check the nice calendar, menu ( yes a asp:menu ) and the image gallery.

Developing the asp:menu was easy, you must make use of adapters, for further reading check the css friendly adapters project: http://www.asp.net/cssadapters/.

If you are looking for one date pickers, try the jquery samples. Check one nice project about using the jquery datepicker in asp.net: http://www.west-wind.com/weblog/posts/213015.aspx

There are still things to work out, like some issues with accessibility, and some other bugs :).

If you want detials, just post a comment a will reply ASAP.

By the way, if you ever came to Portugal, enjoy the wonderfull beach of Carvoeiro, and have a nice meel at the pool on Vila Nova.
