Portable volé. Que faire?

J'ai un ultra portable que je traine partout.  À plusieurs reprises je me suis demandé quoi faire si je l'oublais quelque part, ou si je me le faisais voler.  Et bien François Lapierre-Messier à trouvé: Prey Project!

 

Prey project est une application gratuite qui permet de garder une trace non seulement de votre portable, mais aussi votre téléphone à tout moment.  Et vous aidera si jamais le pire se produit.  Effectivement à l'aide d'une petite application qu'on installe, il permet de retracer l'adresse IP, le réseau WIFI le plus proche, de barré l'écran, de faire partir une alarme et même de prendre des photos, pour le moins que votre portable est une caméra.

Prey est un projet "Open source", et est donc gratuit jusqu'à trois appareils ordinateur et téléphone.  Il est possible de passer à une version Pro moins limité.

Un must!

À lire absolument si vous développez avec Asp.Net.

This vulnerability was publically disclosed late Friday at a security conference.� We recommend that all customers immediately apply a workaround (described below) to prevent attackers from using this vulnerability against your ASP.NET applications.

What does the vulnerability enable?

An attacker using this vulnerability can request and download files within an ASP.NET Application like the web.config file (which often contains sensitive data)." [read more]

Blog » The Official jQuery Podcast – Episode 30 – Chris Coyier

Posted July 30th, 2010 by Ralph WhitbeckIn our 30th episode, we talk with Chris Coyier of CSS-Tricks. Chris also works for Wufoo, an online form builder service.  Chris talks about his inspiration for writing for CSS-Tricks and we look at his jQuery snippets, freebies and screen casts.  We learn what Wufoo is and talk about the new API for Wufoo.  Chris shows us the new Wufoo jQuery API Wrapper and we talk about  the choice of putting the plugin on the jQuery namespace verses making it its own global object.  Finally, we talk about how designers and developers responsibilities are becoming more blurred as it evolves and changes.

Tutorial ClickOnce

The easy way to deploy the .Net applications

In 2007 i wrote a tutorial about ClickOnce technology.  I try many time to put it on the web, but the format was to “complexe” to be only copy-paste.  Recently some reader ask me to re-work the formatting…
So here it is I just put it as a pdf.
I hope you like it…

Introducing “Razor” – a new view engine for ASP.NET - ScottGu's Blog

Introducing “Razor” – a new view engine for ASP.NET - ScottGu's Blog: "Introducing “Razor” – a new view engine for ASP.NET

One of the things my team has been working on has been a new view engine option for ASP.NET.

ASP.NET MVC has always supported the concept of “view engines” – which are the pluggable modules that implement different template syntax options. The “default” view engine for ASP.NET MVC today uses the same .aspx/.ascx/.master file templates as ASP.NET Web Forms. Other popular ASP.NET MVC view engines used today include Spark and NHaml.

The new view-engine option we’ve been working on is optimized around HTML generation using a code-focused templating approach. The codename for this new view engine is “Razor”, and we’ll be shipping the first public beta of it shortly." [...]

Read all of ASP.NET MVC 2 in Action now while you wait for the printed book

I just read this on the Jeffrey Palermo's blog, awesome reading.  I'm in a hurry to start...

Read all of ASP.NET MVC 2 in Action now while you wait for the printed book : Jeffrey Palermo (.com): "First, you should place your advance order for ASP.NET MVC 2 in Action at http://manning.com/palermo2. That way, you will receive the printed book even before you see it at your local bookstore.

The entire book is finished, and we are just moving through production right now. But that doesn’t mean you have to wait to read it and learn about ASP.NET MVC 2. Since the beginning of the book project, you have been able to see the progression of the book on GitHub, our project site and version control system. That’s right, version control is for more than just code!

Head over to http://github.com/jeffreypalermo/mvc2inaction and go to the “manuscript” folder to read the entire book in Word document form. All the content is there. In fact, the Word documents for the 1st edition is there as well. You can see just how much we have expanded the 2nd edition to not only cover version 2 but also to incorporate lessons learned using the framework over the last 2 years."

Fenêtre de dialogue JQuery avec ajax

Un collègue m'a demandé de l'aider pour faire une fenêtre de dialogue pour une application web. Rien de plus simple avec JQueryUI, un simple .dialog() et... "Oui mais le contenu du dialogue doit être une page externe...".   Ah ah, voilà qui semblait compliquer les choses.

Normalement pour faire un dialogue c'est très simple:

   1: <div id="MyDialog">

   2:  <h2>Bravo!</h2>

   3:  <p>Vous avez affiché une boite de dialogue avec succès</p>

   4: </div>

   5: <script type="text/javascript">
   6:  $(document).ready(function(){
   7:   $("#MyDialog").dialog();  
   8:  });
   9:</script>

Print Friendly?

Lors d'un post précédant, je vous ai présenté PDFmyUrl, un outil qui permet d'imprimer en PDF. Le problème avec ce genre d'outil c'est que le format de la page n'est pas toujours conservé. Parfois, le résultat est même inutilisable, une publicité vient se placer par dessus du texte. Et si l'on imprime sur papier alors il y a tellement de vide entre les publicités les marges et menus qu'on imprime 2 fois plus de papier que nécessaire.



Voici donc ce que j'ai trouvé pour régler ce problème : Print Friendly.

En PDF svp

J'ai trouvé un petit service bien simple, mais très utile:  Pdf my url. Comme son nom l'indique, il permet de transformer une page web en un fichier PDF. Donc au lieu de devoir installer les cutePDF de ce monde on peut à partir de n'importe quel ordinateur convertir toutes les pages web en un fichier PDF.
