Sharepoint 2013 Office365 - DelegateControl

I'm trying to find an official answer to my question:
Can I use DelegateControl in Sharepoint 2013 on Office365?
Does anyone have any Microsoft link or article where they say this is possible or not possible? Or any of you guys know for experience this is possible?

No it's not possible to use Delegate Control as you can only install Sandboxed solutions in SharePoint 365 and Delegate Controls are not permitted in Sandboxed solutions.

Richard diZerega has written a blog about what is possible and not possible on SharePoint 365

Delegate Control
Apps for SharePoint do not support "Control" elements that can be used
with delegate controls in a master page. Delegate controls are a
common mechanism for swapping out functionality of a site using a farm
solutions (particularly useful with the AdditionalPageHead delegate).
As an alternative, the same result can be achieved through the design
in a custom master page (ex: place specific html or server controls in
the master page).

Sharepoint foundation: how to make the new site collection look like the exisiting one?

totally sharepoint newbie here, was asked to create a sharepoint collection which mimic the exisiting look and feel for another website, how can i archieve this? thanks
With a SharePoint foundation it is quite difficult to do cause you are limited in options. The server version is customizable from A to Z: master pages, page layouts etc...
When you work with SP foundation the only option is to work with themes which are built in SharePoint and which can be customize. You can create your own theme. See here to for more information about how to customize SP site.
I can advise you to see these examples...
Hope it helps,

Passing parameters in Web Parts

I am working with Sharepoint 2003. I want to pass data from one web part to other like select a drop down in one web part and the other gets updated. I am pretty new to SharePoint please suggest me any tutorials, links sample code to do that.
Thanks for help.
kind regards
vivek
This requirement is specified by creating connectable web parts. See this link:
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms469765.aspx
Although it is for SharePoint 2010 and 2007, but concepts are same.
Madhur's link is good although you'll have to make sure you don't try to use the Asp.Net WebPart infrastructure to create your WebPart. That support was added in the 2007 cycle of the product.
You will want to extend Microsoft.SharePoint.WebPartPages.WebPart http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/microsoft.sharepoint.webpartpages.webpart(office.12).aspx

Sharepoint 2010 What's new?

I wonder that, with a use of minimum custom code use, how easy or hard would it be, compared to previous versions, to build a community portal in Sharepoint 2010, in which users upload, view and comment videos, share videos and so on.
You can ofcourse take Youtube as an example.
Thanks.

sharepoint fba

i have a wss 3.0 site up and running using forms based authentication. Is there a way to upload multiple files (basically copy and paste a folder containing files)?
also, when i try to access the site using designer 2007, i can't access the site and it asks me to install sharepoint services or frontpage extensions. how can i modify the site using designer?
I know that in designer that the functionality exists to copy/paste a folder.
Thank you!
Regarding your first question, see this on Stack Overflow. Essentially, it's by design and Microsoft don't give you that functionality. You could try turning on Client Integration but I don't know if it will work. If you need an alternative, searching around I found UploadZen which seems to support multiple uploads with FBA.
Are you also using forms auth with SharePoint Designer? The bottom of this blog post from Mike Hatch has information that might help you.
Try out installing the SP2 for the SharePoint 2007 and the office Application. In the Office application they have solved may of the issue that were part of FBA enabled sites. Please refer to this for more information.
