Implementation process

Although I was planning to implement a fully working application, but due to some problmes that I faced, I couldn't acheive the goals. Firstly, I was planning to implement with LDAP interface, which I just got it yesterday(Thursday). Unfortunatly, it was harder than what I expected. Later, I tried to do with HtmlDocument and parsing, but again I faced a problem which when accessing the website, the main page adds some random numbers and letters to the URL. So it didn't work again. As a result, due to my limited time, I just added a webBrowser to the application which the user can search for the information throw the website directly!

Code Camp Experience

Although I didnt meet the goals of implementation, but it was a good experience, since it was my first time with Windows Phone Programming.
