I've worked in tech for a while
A very quick tip for the non-admins out there today. I am looking after an app which uses lots of profile documents on the web. It’s not the way I would choose to do things because whenever you change the configuration in a profile document it takes ages (up to half an hour) for the …

It’s not Thursday I know, but what the hell. OK, this is one which I am guessing that I should have known but I am convinced that Domino used to work in a different way. What’s the situation? Well, we have a document which is edited on the web. The document has a field on …
I’m trying to locate a very odd javascript problem at the moment but not having much luck. However, in my browsings I have found a very useful little line which makes debugging a lot easier. If you enter the line “debugger” in your function then if you have the IE Script Debugger or the Venkman …

If you haven’t heard of OpenLog then you should get over to OpenNTF and catch up now, don’t worry we’ll wait for you… OK, are you ready now? Good then we can continue. I have been busy adding OpenLog to a couple of applications over the last day or so, all works wonderfully (as we …
OK this is a really simple little tip using an @Formula which I had completely forgotten about (hence the post really).

Yet more XML and AJAX, what can I say, it’s just so much fun playing around with this stuff. While in Sweden we were talking about how a real “nice to have” would be to be able to get a list of categories sorted by the number of documents in each category. As has become …
So while in Sweden one of the things I have been working on required me to output some XML from a view. I have a standard function which I use to encode text so that it will work correctly. But I learned two things which may well be blindingly obvious to you but were new …
No code this week, no time what with the release this morning and washing machines blowing up earlier in the week. So instead a tip. It’s something which I have mentioned to a few people and they seemed to think it was an interesting idea for those of us running home Domino servers for email. …

Joining in the spirit of Rocky’s Show and Tell Thursday idea, I thought I’d share a tool which I wrote last year. The reason I haven’t posted it before is that it’s got a fairly niche market and it’s just re-using techniques which are pretty familiar now (AJAX to get some XML and then XPath …
