The site is in progress you can goto http://www.gadgetslim.com to view it...but we still need to create a mobile version also I still haven't created an HTML parser for it...if you can do any of this please tell me...

^ Welcome back ....any report from anybody??...

anyone done with testing??

tdops: Hey J, I appreciate your efforts on this. why dont you put up a page that calls the web-services so that we can all see?
I am mainly interested as i currently use Icecat and my folks are pushing to go into some other channels (CNet and Co). If we (or I) can see demo then we may just be convinced that it worth the effort. It does not really need to be anything fanciful..

Just a thot from an onlooker.....

i will do that very soon...i just want to test it on all platforms first...Thanks for your contribution...

Nawa o!...where has everybody gone to??...

@mj any progress??...where is spike C, A-zed and others that voluntered to test the service??

^ ok try and consume the web service in any of those languages...if possible all and see if it works...

where are the PHP, ASP, ASP.NET and JSP guys??, i need as many as possible

If you want to help test or consume the web service...i suggest you go and learn how to consume web services with WSDL (web service descriptor link) in your various languages, google is your friend. it is platform independent.

UPDATE
i have finally deployed the web service its now in the testing stage

^Thanks a lot o!... I understand perfectly well now...chai!!! to be illeterate block head no good o!

Thanks, but are you saying if I have a range of numbers let's say 2,4,6,8,10 then I can assume the i-th tern is the 3rd term, therefore the I term will be 6??

Hello guys, i'm working on a programming puzzle and i came across something like i-th integer and i integer. I tried doing some research but i was seeing too much statistics grammar. So please can you explain in a lay mans term.

This is the question:-

Giving a range of numbers 1-10 i.e. 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10. Which is the i-th integer and the i integer. Please i am an illeterate and a complete block head, let your explanation be as simple as possible. Thanks

UPDATE
I have received a CentOS linux server from webdezzi....so i'm still configuring the enviroments and making installations...

nirvena: THERE IS THIS APPLICATION I EARNESTLY NEED, A SITE USES IT TO MAKE MONEY IN USD. BUT I NEED IT NAIRA. AM AFRAID IF I GIVE U THE SITE U CAN EASILY COPY IT AND MAKE MONEY FOR YOURSELF AND FORGET ME. DONT BE OFFENDED , WE NIGERIANS ARE VERY CUNNING YOU KNOW.

ok...keep your idea to yourself...

Keep it coming guys

keep it comming guys

webdezzi: good. i know with the combined effort of developers here + Seun, we should be able to drive traffic to the app.
IOS, blackberry, Mobile Java developers can pull this off too, we only need to offer a service like the current project does.

i think there is a site like that does such already http://www.policevrp.com/secure/registervehicle.php

Javanian: Check your email

still waiting for your reply...

Check your email

@webdezzi i think the propagation has been done...it now directs me to a tomcat homepage...so whats next??

mj: Where was I all this while, I've been seeing this thread but never bothered to read it, probably because I don't do 2 much of Java stuffs but I wrk with JSP, I use JSP for my final year project oooo. At this point you guys have really gone far, probably I'll start working on the how to consume the web service in php or asp.net, I mean warming up. I'm proud of you all, I love the template design Xterra2, Javanian well done ma.

you are very much welcome...Thanks for joining us...

I hope the person will receive upto $10,000 monthly with all these your nonesence requirement...mstcheeww!!!

mj: Pls, I'm really interested, I want to be part of it.

No probs...you can join but for now i have some projects am busy with like this one https://www.nairaland.com/1003066/creating-open-source-java-web-service but in a week or two i should be done

The Domain name is now pointing to the name servers, so lets give it a while to propagate.

webdezzi: something has always been on my mind after i was robbed at gunpoint in September 2010, It was life changing and i remember i got so desperate and wish there was a platform that could aid the recovery of the vehicle.(a then unregistered 2009 Toyota Sienna with VIN 5TDZK23C492S49897)

A platform for propective car buyers that will give access to a database of stolen vehicles.

This is how it will work, If your car is stolen or missing, Just logon, Post the VIN, REGistration Number, contact person details, police officer to contact

For buyers, You search the VIN number of a vehicle you are about to purchase on the website, even with your mobile phone, if it's in the database, you report to the police officer on file

This can also be a useful tool for the Nigerian police Force, Vehicle Inspection Officers and general public.
At least, this will reduce vehicle theft, and loss of life in the process.
So every thief will need an extra eye at the back of the head after a successful robbery.

The Nairaland auto section will benefit from this also
do you think this makes sense, so we go ahead?

i have just added this to my To-Do list...Thanks

Seun: Solution: Stop being a troll.

he might be a troll...but beleive me people like him give this forum life..

Yes...it requires a datbase...data is retreived from the source website and stored in the database...MYSQL to be precise....

^ yes i have a registered domain and i'll have it pointed to your name servers as soon as possible also i'll look into JSON tommorow...

- It should have tomcat or glassfish(preferably).

- if its tomcat it should have JAX-WS RI dependencies to run the web service

- 1 gig ram should do for a start

JVM as you know

More suggestions are still welcome...i'll select one from the suggestions here...
