Our company is scouting for a few legacy ASP developers at the moment to maintain our old ASP systems. These people may be grown into a .Net position at a later stage, depending on a few factors. Although they wont be on my team, I was asked to help out with the interviews. I was satisfied with the ASP and database skills. I'm not talking specifically about anybody, I'm just making an overall observation. What bothered me about the skills listed in the stack of CV's was the lack of Javascript skills...
When inserting a table into your markup, the default behavior is that it will automatically start on a new line. Sometimes this is not the desired behavior. I had to write a custom control recently in order to display a complex custom button. Due to some tiling issues involved, we had to use a table. The button displayed fine, but we found that when we wanted to display the button in a paragraph, it always started on a new line. This is an example of what I mean: This is the text of the paragraph...
Wow, confusing title... Often I want to incorporate some logic on the client-side in order to alleviate the need for an unnecessary postback. This means that want the power of linking up client-side logic with the server side, being able to launch server side event handlers from the client side - through the normal channels. This means that I don't want to redirect to the same page using querystrings and call the correct function from the Page_Load method.. I want the same behavior as when an asp...
I have complained about Javascript debugging several times. Ideally what I'd like to see is a debugger similar to the .Net IDE where you can set breakpoints before running the file, to step through the code without an error having occured. I remembered that yonks ago, while using visual interdev, I managed to debug client-side script in conjunction with the MS script debugger. According to Microsoft script debugger 's documentation, you can view all the active documents by clicking view -> running...
My browser(IE6) was hijaked a while ago, and at that time I couldn't find any useful info on the web to help me get rid of the problem. I regularly isntall all the MS security updates, but it still slipped through, I think it might've been been when I reinstalled my machine and it was vulnerable for a while. The hijack caused my internet explorer to redirect to http://th.msie.cc/index.php?aid=20035 everytime. I even went into the registry and edited the settings in HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Internet...
With all the new development tools coming out, it just gets easier and easier to code.But a big thorn in my side still remains: Javascript. I've written a very complex inline editor tool in javascript, which we use in a lot of products. Every time I experience a problem with running this editor I have to go through each of the 10+ javascript files that it reference, and go to the line that IE complains about in the error. This tool was written especially for IE, so it wouldn't help me to try and...
I wanted to include functionality to upload a markup file (html/aspx) in a web application of mine. The trick was that I needed to upload all the referenced images too. My first approach was to try and dynamically create input objects of type “file” on the client side, populating it with the path to the referenced images (for the images residing on the local machine) and then submitting a form to the server. The problem with this approach was a limitation (by design) on the input type...
I hate mixing server side code into my javascript code. It's messy and it doesn't allow me to store my javscript in separate .js files. I had to get access to certain querystring parameters from my client side code, so I decided to write a reusable javascript object to access the whole querystring collection. //this is to store the key value pairs of the querystring function qsObject(){ this .objects = new Array(); this .add = _add; this .remove =_remove; this .item = _item; this .populateCollection...
