Firefox, VS 2003, VS 2005 and migrating applications

Recently I blogged some random thoughts on running ASP.NET apps in the firefox browser . I am really beginnning to like FireFox. To mention my top feauture: + increases font size (and - decreases it). And this really works very well, far better than increase text size in IE. My eyes are getting old and...

My last Sony ?

Lost some more hair getting alll details right again after my big XP sp2 nightmare . The machine I had to rebuild from scratch is a Sony laptop. Beautiful machine, espacially the ergonomics. Absolutely quiet, great keyboard and a beautifull display. The latter gave me the headaches. Its brightness can...

VS 2005 : Firefox just as good (or bad) as IE

Pictures say more than a thousand words . This is a web page in VS 2003 and the result in IE and FireFox. By stretching the labels I can have alligned columns. IE understands that, Firefox does not. This is the same page in VS 2005 In VS I can stretch and alingn the labels. Firefox still doesn't understand...

Firefox is actually a better browser than ASP.NET realizes

Yesterday I blogged a little of the bad behaviour of my ASP.NET applications in the Firefox browser . As IE is under siege I just have to be prepared for a way out. My apps are indeed intranet apps, according to Shannon , the only thing place the cool ASP.NET apps are good for control properties are...

Firefox and asp.net applications

With so many people advocating the Firefox browser, amongst Marc in his DNJ blog, I just had to give it a chance. Installation is quick, most sites look OK but I still don't understand what happened to my favorites. The on-line manual mentions several times it will import IE's favorites but there is...

How printer friendly are animated banners, or is WinInfo spam after all?

For a couple of years I have been a faithfull reader of WinInfo daily update. My provider considered it spam for a couple of months but I took the effort to skim my spambox time after time. It was always worth it. Last week the newsletter got a new face, from the classical text only to highly decorated...

What does this button do ? Google is more than Gmail

Got my Gmail account, thanks to Saso . It is nice. Just like google searches, clean crisp UI and fast. The google toolbar used to be a default install for me, the combination of a search box and a pop-blocker make it irresistable. The pop up blocker is now part of IE and google has a very nifty replacement...
