Bryan Valencia |  ASP Classic Suddenly failsI do not have the time for this! As of today, every time someone tries to open any .asp page on my site, they get...,
Server Application ErrorThe server has encountered
an error while loading an application during the processing of your
request. Please refer to the event log for more detail information.
Please contact the server administrator for assistance.
This asp.net site that has been RUNNING and STABLE for 5 years suddenly
REFUSES to execute any ASP classic pages! I have done NOT ONE THING to the server other than install a MICROSOFT SECURITY UPDATE,
which of course happens automatically.,

So far, I have lost a FULL DAY OF PRODUCTIVITY over this, and it is NOT resolved at ALL.,

Bryan Valencia | RE: Paradox 3 table add What methodology are you using to add the records? a QBE query? Code in a script?If it were a Key collision you'd end up with an error message, not a corrupt table, so it's not that. It might be a storage issue, maybe BDE settings would help. I wonder if you should close and reopen the tables between adds, to clean up temp data and force data writes.As a rule, I try to use SQL to do this kind of thing rather than the raw table adds. |

Bryan Valencia | RE: Clients That Don't Pay?? I think there are some good lessons to be learned here. You can't really sell your services without at least doing a "mockup" or two of your ideas. It's probably good to publish guidelines on your site and in your agreements to make sure they fully understand what to expect. Something like: Free Quotes and Mockups: Limited to 3 hour's effort. More extensive pre-planning efforts will require a signed agreement and a $XX deposit., Payment is due upon client acceptance of the work, after which the website may be published.I suggest the deposit should be equivalent to what you charge for about 5 hours work. |

Bryan Valencia |  Google Crawler Issues{Too Long}
Bryan.V | Why can't I create it in VWD?Why does it work fine for BING and other search engines?Why when I create a plain text file in VWD, is it stored as anything other than plain text?Sorry, what you suggest is a workaround, which is fine, but workarounds are for bugs. What I'm doing here is notifying people of a bug. |

2. Using Web Safe Fonts in CSS
If you are editing the stylesheet in Visual Web Developer, and you access the font-family dropdown, Microsoft shows 3 common web-safe fonts and then every font in your system.
This is dumb. Most of us designers have many, many fonts that the average web browsing public has never heard of.
Therefore, I present this list of Web Safe Fonts. Use this list in the font-family settings to achieve the effect you want, with maximum web compatibility.

4. Which Development Tool would YOU use?
Maybe I'm cynical, but as a developer meeting with a prospective client to gather requirements, I always wait for that one "gotcha" that turns a simple, straightforward project into a potential daymare.

Thanks for that - I am there. I got a thing called Netbeans that uses the Java/Swing approach. Is there a better IDE for this sort of thing?

Mike, is there any way we can attach the current version of that MDB file to this article, in case it becomes unavailable at some point?

Interesting. I had heard that some older browsers ignore it, but not that there is an alternate way of displaying it. Since there are so many browsers, and open-source variants, I can't really answer that with a definite answer.

SHORTCUT ICON
Get rid of the boring default icon on your website. Add a custom icon! Most browsers support .ico and the most popular ones will show any standard web image.
