Hello,
I have a requirement to build a set of 5 links within the SharePoint intranet of the client. Users within the site can select of these 5 links which ones they want to see on their home page and add it. The selection should be an easy checkbox selection which gives users the flexibility to add/remove links they want to see on the homepage.

I did some finding and seems jquery could be a win in this. But not sure how to proceed as I haven't worked on jquery before. If someone can point me to right direction, it will be helpful.

Thanks in advance.

Hi,
first,you'd better push the checkbox id(or SharePoint) into an array;
then use ajax pass the array value to(php,aspx side)->Mysql
last read Mysql,the users will see the SharePoint on the homepage.

JavaScript

<script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.8.3/jquery.min.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript">
	$(function(){
		$("#abv").click(function(){
			var ar=new Array();
			$("input:checkbox:checked").each(function(){
				alert("you choose:"+$(this).parents('span').text());
				ar.push($(this).attr('id'));
			});
			alert(ar);
			/*$.getJSON{'a.php',{id,ar},function(result){//AJAX 
			});*/
		});
	})
</script>
<div id="div1">
<input type="button" id="abv" value="test"/>
</div>
<span><input type="checkbox" id="1">http://www.codeproject.com/Questions/1</span>
<span><input type="checkbox" id="2">http://www.codeproject.com/Questions/2</span>
<span><input type="checkbox" id="3">http://www.codeproject.com/Questions/3</span>
<span><input type="checkbox" id="4">http://www.codeproject.com/Questions/4</span>

Solution 2

I cannot use MS-SQL in my case. Anyways, I found the solution myself. Thanks for your help.

I create a list of the links and populate the user's name in the item which they want to see. Filter that using custom webpart in visual studio on page load.
