I did it. After a few more "ehancements" and fixes, I
used my new program to generate my stitching page.
Of course, it's almost exactly the same as what I had before since I only used the information on the current page. Once I get some updates ready to post I'll use it again :)

So, I just had to find out if my nerd score went up because of this little
programming adventure. It looks like not by too much.

Here's my updated results:

So, how geeky am I?

Truly this tells the tale.... Quite a while ago, I came up with this idea to store all my stitching project information (the kind of stuff I put on my web page) in an XML file. Then I could write a program to read the XML and generate my web page. Wouldn't that be cool? And what if I made a program that would display edit boxes for me to fill in and browse for the images? And then I could select which projects I put on the page? Doesn't that sound COOL?

So, I finally did it. I had to learn how to read an XML file into a java program for work, and now that I know that, and I used what I'd learned about making a graphical interface from the last project I was on to make my program. I haven't loaded it up with data yet, I've been fixing bugs in it so far, but soon my stitching page will be all generated by my program. It's so cool, I just had to tell someone.

Here's a screen shot:

Finally, I have updated my stitching page with all my summer stitching. Most of this has already been on the blog, but that's ok. The latest installment in my correspondence class is on the web page. Lesson 4: Complete!
