I found [TinyMCE][1] pretty easy to implement. And it's light on bandwidth usage too.

Not sure if it helps, but there's also a utility called [Microsoft LogParser](http://www.microsoft.com/technet/scriptcenter/tools/logparser/default.mspx) that you can supposedly use to parse text-based log files and use them as if they were a database. From the website:

i'll have an ASP.net page that creates some Excel Sheets and sends them to the user. The problem is, sometimes I get Http timeouts, presumably because the Request runs longer than executionTimeout (110 Seconds per default).

I've actually done this (set up my own server using phpMyID). It's very easy and works quite well. One thing that annoys me to no end is the use of HTML redirects instead of HTTP. I changed that manually, based on some information gotten in the [phpMyID forum][1].

An important point is that tail recursion is essentially equivalent to looping. It's not just a matter of compiler optimization, but a fundamental fact about expressiveness. This goes both ways: you can take any loop of the form
while(E) { S }; return Q

One final word on PSQL variables:

I don't think this is a good idea just like reading files or accessing the database in unit tests isn't a good idea. Your tests will become dependent on the state of an external piece of software.
