Auto Respond By Text - App for Android

"Auto Respond By Text" is another Android app I made by using App Inventor for Android. This app is a tool that will send an automatic response to whoever who sends you a text while it is enabled. It was inspired by Google's example app called "No Text While Driving". But after seeing that idea, I made mine from scratch and I added much enhancement.

Here is what mine offers beyond the example provided by Google:
  • Choose from a list of pre-defined responses.
  • Customize your own list of responses.
  • Enable or disable the auto-response feature.
  • Set a timeout so that it will disable itself automatically after a customizable period of time.
  • Sleek user interface.

Adobe® Flex® Combobox: Selecting an Item Without Using SelectedIndex

In Adobe Flex, in order to select an item in a ComboBox, you use the .selectedIndex property. However, there might be times that you want to specify the item to be selected based on something other than it's position in the list.

Parameters Sent by TinyWebDB in App Inventor for Android

TinyWebDB is a component in App Inventor for Android that lets your app communicate with a web page in order to set or retrieve values, rather than storing them on the phone itself. I wanted to know what the TinyWebDB component sends to the web page when it tries to set or retrieve values, so I used Kodingen this morning to write a PHP script that takes the form fields and values sent to the page and writes them to a file. Here is what I found: TinyWebDB.StoreValue sends these parameters: tag value TinyWebDB. GetValue sends this parameter: tag So if you write your own PHP page for TinyWebDB to connect to, you can know if TinyWebDB is trying to store a value if the "value" key exists in the $_POST array. If the "value" key doesn't exist in the $_POST array then you know that TinyWebDB is only trying to retrieve the value for the given tag. As an alternative to using the method outlined by Google , you could use TinyWebDB with your own script written in an
