Once again, read

http://www.catb.org/~esr/faqs/smart-questions.html

and get some perspective. We are not here to do your homework for you.
If you have real issues and have researched the problem space and need
help and/or guidance, post a question. But for someone to come online
and say, "I don't know how to do this; will someone write my code for
me?" is ridiculous.

If you want to continue this conversation real-time, goto
irc.darkmyst.org, #FunkyCodeMonkey and we'll chat. And, btw, the
channel is full of code experts from all fields.
