I want to create a tagging system for my website which allows user to enter the required skills,separated by comma, using ASP.net and C#.
In detail:
The tags (separated by comma), given by the user could be further manipulated according to my needs (a way of doing that).
I want to make a separate entry for each and every tag into the database.
I tried using Tag-it by Levy Carneiro Jr.. it is working perfect for local source.
But when I tried attaching it with my database using this. It just doesn't work.
My code:-
<script type="text/javascript">
$(document).ready(function () {
SearchText();
});
function SearchText() {
$(".autosuggest").autocomplete({
source: function (request, response) {
$.ajax({
type: "POST",
contentType: "application/json; charset=utf-8",
url: "tag.aspx/GetAutoCompleteData",
data: "{'username':'" + document.getElementById('singleFieldTags2').value + "'}",
dataType: "json",
success: function (data) {
response(data.d);
},
error: function (result) {
alert("Error");
}
});
}
});
}
<script>
$(function () {
//Local sample- //var sampleTags = ['c++', 'java', 'php', 'coldfusion', 'javascript', 'asp', 'ruby', 'python', 'c', 'scala', 'groovy', 'haskell', 'perl', 'erlang', 'apl', 'cobol', 'go', 'lua'];
$('#singleFieldTags2').tagit({
});
});
</script>
<body>
<form id="form1" runat="server">
<asp:TextBox name="tags" id="singleFieldTags2" value="Apple, Orange" class="autosuggest" runat="server"></asp:TextBox>
</form>
Backend C# code-
[WebMethod]
public static List<string> GetAutoCompleteData(string username)
{
List<string> result = new List<string>();
using (SqlConnection con = new SqlConnection("Data Source=ZESTER-PC;Initial Catalog=mystp;Integrated Security=True"))
{
using (SqlCommand cmd = new SqlCommand("select tag_name from tags where tag_name LIKE '%'+@SearchText+'%'", con))
{
con.Open();
cmd.Parameters.AddWithValue("@SearchText", username);
SqlDataReader dr = cmd.ExecuteReader();
while (dr.Read())
{
result.Add(dr["tag_name"].ToString());
}
return result;
}
}
}
Here tags is my tag table containing tag_id and tag_name.
I have created the Tagging System using ASP.net
Check it out.. nd do rate it..
