Delivering email can be like black magic sometimes. The reverse DNS is really important. I have found it to be very helpful to carefully track NDRs.

There still is an ugly solution (which is far inferior to using a framework or `addEventListener`/`attachEvent`) that is to save the current `onload` event: ``` function addOnLoad(fn) { var old = window.onload; window.onload = function() { old(); fn(); }; } addOnLoad(function() { // your...

I am currently writing a small calendar in ASP.Net C#.

How can I calculate the number of rows that...

On another note; setting the wmode to transparent has a few kinks.

I have used [NuSOAP](https://sourceforge.net/projects/nusoap/) in the past. I liked it because it is just a set of PHP files that you can include. There is nothing to install on the web server and no config options to change. It has WSDL support as well which is a bonus.

The [SQLite](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SQLite) API has a function called something like `sqlite_prepare` which takes statement and prepares it for execution, essentially parsing the SQL and storing it in memory. This means that the SQL only has to be sent once to the database engine even though the statement is exe...

I understand how JS is run and I think I understand most of the DOM but I've no idea about animation. Does anybody here know of a good guide that can explain to me how it's done in Javascript? In addition, should I even consider Javascript for animation? Should I instead be looking to learn flash?

This is what I've learned so far from my research. .NET sends in connection settings that are not the same as what you get when you log in to management studio. Here is what you see if you sniff the connection with Sql Profiler: ``` -- network protocol: TCP/IP set quoted_identifier off set arithabort off set n...

I just looked at the AIR SQL API, and there's an `attach` method on `SQLConnection` it looks exactly what you need. I haven't tested this, but according to the documentation it should work: ``` var connection : SQLConnection = new SQLConnection(); connection.open(firstDbFile); connection.attach(secondDbFile, "otherDb"...

It's true that some of the talks out there are very rudimentary, unfortunately some times the bulk of your crowd may need that.

I have a silverlight 2 beta 2 application that accesses a WCF web service. Because of this, it currently can only use basicHttp binding. The webservice will return fairly large amounts of XML data. This seems fairly wasteful from a bandwidth usage standpoint as the response, if zipped, would be smaller by a factor o...

if your animation is simple, change colors over time, move from x to y in 3 seconds. Javascript is fine. If you want all kinds of wizbang buttons and coordinated rotation of the screen, straight up js + dhtml will be clunky at best. Silverlight vs Flash are you questions at that point. Interestingly enough, you program...

Check out a JS animation framework like Bernard Sumption's [Animator.js](http://web.archive.org/web/20101028234136/http://berniecode.com/writing/animator.html). It's pretty light-weight and has some excellent examples. Personally, I wouldn't be animating things in JS. Flash FTW.
