Creating Offline Web Applications With Dojo Offline by Brad Neuberg (SitePen), September 23rd, 2007 This tutorial steps you through creating offline web applications using Dojo Offline. What is Dojo Offline? Dojo Offline is an open-source toolkit that makes it easy to create sophisticated, offline web applications. It sits on top of Google Gears, a plugin from Google that helps extend web browsers with new functionality. Dojo Offline makes working with Google Gears easier; extends it with important functionality; creates a higher-level API than Google Gears provides; and exposes developer productivity features. In particular, Dojo Offline provides the following functionality: An offline widget that you can easily embed in your web page with just a few lines of code, automatically providing the user with network feedback, sync messages, offline instructions, and more A sync framework to help you store actions done while offline and sync them with a server once back on the network Automatic network and application-availability detection to determine when your application is on- or off-line so that you can take appropriate action A slurp() method that automatically scans the page and figures out all the resources that you need offline, including images, stylesheets, scripts, etc.; this is much easier than having to manually maintain which resources should be available offline, especially during development. Dojo Storage, an easy to use hashtable abstraction for storing offline data for when you don't need the heaviness of Google Gear's SQL abstraction; under the covers Dojo Storage saves its data into Google Gears Dojo SQL, an easy to use SQL layer that executes SQL statements and returns them as ordinary JavaScript objects New ENCRYPT() and DECRYPT() SQL keywords that you can mix in when using Dojo SQL, to get transparent cryptography for columns of data. Cryptography is done on a Google Worker Pool thread, so that the browser UI is responsive. Integration with the rest of Dojo, such as the Dojo Event system

Mobile Web Application Best Practices

by karlcow

Best Practices for the development and delivery of Web applications on mobile devices. The recommendations expand upon statements made in the Mobile Web Best Practices 1.0 (BP1), especially those that relate to the exploitation of device capabilities and awareness of the delivery context. Furthermore, since BP1 was written, networks and devices have continued to evolve, with the result that a number of Best Practices that were omitted from BP1 can now be included.

The recommendation is primarily directed at creators, maintainers and operators of Web applications. Readers of this document are expected to be familiar with the creation of Web sites, and to have a general familiarity with the technologies involved, such as Web servers, HTTP, and Web application technologies. Readers are not expected to have a background in mobile technologies or previous experience with BP1.

best of craigslist : WARNING!!! Don't shave that hair!

by xibe

It is a statement that will go down in history with a lot of other regretted statements. "How many Indians could there be?" said by General Custer. "Looks like a good day for a drive!" by JFK. "There! America On-Line now has complete Usenet access!" by some idiot system tech. Such was my anal shaving idea.

It's About the Product, Silly - Jay Pipes

by mbertier (via)
So, my point is that it is not the marketing of a product that counts — indeed, false marketing statements or tactics can backfire quickly. What counts is the product itself. Marketing should be the function of promoting the innovative advantages of a product in the above three categories.

Mozilla published financial statements earlier this week showing that the organization made $66.8 million in revenue for 2006, a 26 percent increase from 2005. That's some strong growth, and it shows that Mozilla has the potential for long-term fiscal sustainability.

Writing a Good Accessibility Statement

by sebastien & 1 other
Accessibility statements are an ideal place to empower visitors to your website. Most accessibility statements are too technical, and don't necessarily address the needs of the visitor. Those that do address the needs of visitors often have the information lost in a myriad of other information that is unlikely to be understood by the average visitor to the website. What should and shouldn't be included in an accessibility statement?

Burningbird » We Can't Afford Another Browser War

by karlcow

"So I'll expect to see no more of these lies spread by you." No matter how angry you get, or frustrated, or peeved, if you want to work in an open standards group, particularly if you want to lead an open standards effect, you can't write statements like this! Period. End of story. Along with the authority of leadership comes responsibility, and such statements are irresponsible.

L'arrogance est la principale source de problèmes dans les groupes de discussion aujourd'hui. C'est vraiment dommage.

Python: Myths about Indentation

by karlcow

Only the indentation level of your statements is significant (i.e. the whitespace at the very left of your statements). Everywhere else, whitespace is not significant and can be used as you like, just like in any other language. You can also insert empty lines that contain nothing (or only arbitrary whitespace) anywhere.

Try Python - a Python statement evaluator

by pvergain & 2 others (via)
Just type Python statements into the console window. If you are entering text at the end of the console and hit return, the last line will be evaluated, and the results will be printed. While most statements — print, import and assignment — work, you can't define functions or classes (yet, I hope). The anchors on this page will open or close bits of documentation on Python or Try Python, helping to guide you through the various things you can do with Python, or about the page.

How to prevent spyware

by hjshare (via)
Spyware and other unwanted software can invade your privacy, bombard you with pop-up windows, slow down your computer, and even make your computer crash. Here are several ways you can help protect your computer against spyware and other unwanted software. On This Page: Step 1: Update your software Step 2: Adjust Internet Explorer security settings Step 3: Use a firewall Step 4: Explore and download more safely Step 5: Download and install antispyware protection Step 1: Update your software If you use Windows XP, one way to help prevent spyware and other unwanted software is to make sure all your software is updated. First, visit Microsoft Update to confirm that you have Automatic Updates turned on and that you've downloaded all the latest critical and security updates. To get the latest updates: 1. In Internet Explorer, click Tools and then click Windows Update. 2. Choose right programs you need to update your windows system. Step 2: Adjust Internet Explorer security settings You can adjust your Internet Explorer Web browser's security settings to determine how-much or how-little information you are willing to accept from a Web site. We recommends that you set the security settings for the Internet zone to Medium or higher. To view your current Internet Explorer security settings: 1. In Internet Explorer, click Tools and then click Internet Options. 2. Select the Security tab. Step 3: Use a firewall While most spyware and other unwanted software come bundled with other programs or originate from unscrupulous Web sites, a small amount of spyware can actually be placed on your computer remotely by hackers. Installing a firewall or using the firewall that's built into Windows XP provides a helpful defense against these hackers. Also, you can visit our firewall software site: Personal Firewall and Business Firewall to choose the right software for you. Step 4: Explore and download more safely The best defense against spyware and other unwanted software is not to download it in the first place. Here are a few helpful tips that can protect you from downloading software you don't want: * Only download programs from Web sites you trust. If you're not sure whether to trust a program you are considering downloading, ask a knowledgeable friend or enter the name of the program into your favorite search engine to see if anyone else has reported that it contains spyware. * Read all security warnings, license agreements, and privacy statements associated with any software you download. * Never click "agree" or "OK" to close a window. Instead, click the red "x" in the top right corner of the window or press the Alt + F4 buttons on your keyboard to close a window. * Be wary of popular "free" music and movie file-sharing programs, and be sure you clearly understand all of the software packaged with those programs. Step 5: Download and install antispyware protection Bestshareware currently offers antispyware software for you; more information is available on our Bestshareware AntiSpy Software site. Additional security tools to help detect, block, and remove unwanted software from your computer are available on our Security resources page.
