Hope you guys had fun making all those widgets ! CHEERS !!!

During the sessions we had told you about how you can store data in a widget, I have modified that sample to store objects and arrays in the widget. I have also included a sample of how you can store information in an Object or an Array and then convert that Object into a string which you can store using widget.setPreferenceForKey. The sample also includes code that shows you to convert back the JSON string into an Object.

StoreData.zip This is a sample widget that shows you how you can store/retrive JSON data in a widget. Its a modifed version of the widget that we had made during the seminar.

JSONExample.zip This is a simple example that shows you how JSON can be used to represent objects and arrays as a string.

Here are some links that will give you some more information about JSON and the widget object in JavaScript

• Introducing JSON
