I am programming for Windows Phone 8.1.
I have lots of (100) Textbox. They have 3-4 lines. What is the best way to save text of them and reload text again?
Thanks.
Did you try using the Settings option from the Isolated Storage to store the values?
Here's a good sample you could follow.
Hope it helps!

I've checked all of the input scopes from InputScopeNameValue enumeration while trying to get rid of smiley button, but it always stays there. In some cases the concept of a "smile" and corresponding Unicode characters are not really welcome as an input for specific text field.
Is there any other way to remove it from the keyboard?
a good news for you. A new InputScope called ChatWithoutEmoji has been released in Windows 10 Anniversary Edition Build 14332 SDK. Check out this blog post on Windows Blogs. Hope this will solve your problem.
There is no way to remove the smiley with the available inputscopes for Windows 10. They all have the smiley included.

I'm not a WP8 dev, but I wanted to write a little timer app for my toddler. Thing is, she shouldn't be able to turn it off by clicking 'home','back' or 'search', but by password only. Its for personal use only, so store policies/hackiness dont matter. I know it can be done on android, but how about WP8?
You could programatically block any back-button presses (though it's not compliant with windows phone store requirement), but there's no way to block start and search buttons.
Try encapsulating those buttons with some DuctTape
Does anyone know how to implement a word suggestion popup menu so that when you type letters it will open up popu menu and suggest words that you can choose from and when chosen you can continue typing much like the word suggestion in for example text messages.
This feature is already in windows phone 8 if you put the input scope for Textblock to Text but the problem is that you can't input your own words to the dictionary programatically.
I was also looking at the autocomplete for windows phone 8 toolkit but the problem there is that you can't continue typing after you have selected the word from list. Any idea how to modify that control so that you can do it ?
Thanks,

You need an AutocompleteBox, this article should help you http://developer.nokia.com/community/wiki/How_to_use_Auto_Complete_Box_in_Windows_Phone
Is it possible to deactivate text suggestions for selected TextBoxes in a Windows Store app when no keyboard is attached to the Windows tablet?
You could try various InputScope options to see if that helps...
TextBox.IsTextPredictionEnabled does the trick. It's true by default.
I have a web page where I have a button. I need to automatically dial a phone number on the click of the button. It needs to be done in HTML.
I need to do it on the onclick event of the button.
On mobile devices, there are protocol handlers to launch the phone. Depending on the security, some will dial it, or others will bring on the phone application with the number already there.
Call me at +1 (555) 555-5555
I've used this in the past for mobile apps:
<button id="call">Call</button>
<script>
$("#call").on('click', function() {
var link = "tel:18003334444";
window.location.href = link;
});
</script>
This, of course, uses jQuery.
Well, I don't think this is possible in HTML... Have you done any research on Java or PHP? a quick google reveals a grand central API, and Java Phone, But I don't know how much help they will be. Also, for future reference, it helps if you tell us what you want to do with this number, will you be connecting it to another phone number? To your computer? Etc. Regardless, this is going to be a fairly complex project, and would be so even if you were comfortable with a real programming language. Your best approach would be to figure out your options and then come back to Stack overflow if you need help on choosing one. Best of luck!
I have to declare a commercial interest. I work for Cisco and we've developed a JavaScript SDK and browser plugin that enable you to do this, but only in a Cisco deployment. If you're interested, here's the link:-
