the XHTML1 spec says this I cannot find where it says that name is depreciated for input.http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/

You will find a lot more tutorials for Vb then for python I imagine. Try here. http://msdn.microsoft.com/virtuallabs/vbasic/If you want to create an API for your CAD program then ASP.Net is a waste of your time as that is only for web applications (websites).Download VB express and start with the tutorials I linked above. I read that if you register your express edition you can get access to download a free vb book. I don't know where but it is supposedly available.

.Net is used to write web applications (ASP.Net - VB or C#) it is also used to write desktop applications (WinForms - VB, C#, or C++).If you were more specific on exactly what you need to do I may be able to give a better answer. It sounds like you may need a web service to allow your CAD program to interact with ASP.Net and vice versa.

if you want to make web apps use Visual Web Developer Express.

Well if you are just loading the content div then yes it would be faster than reloading everything in a new page.One thing you need to consider is how will your users bookmark your pages? Also what about JS disabled users? If these are not a concern for you then I say go for it.

True, and even harder to not make one that doesn't look like a portal (endless amount of content blocks)

To tell you the truth I have always used a different page for AJAX requests just to keep things simple and seperated. However I would imagine that you could use hte same page you are on as long as there was something identifiable about the AJAX request that you could catch and do some different processing. It would require you to surpress all other HTML output and only output the results of the AJAX request.So to answer your question no you shouldn't need the bolded part as long as you are processing your request with the currently loaded page.

I guess, I am sure there are plenty of shortcuts I still don't know

I juast blogged about a JavaScript font detector. You may be able to use this to detect the font and if not found use and image. At least if the font is found that user won't have to wait for the images.http://www.aspnetguy.com/blog/index.php/archives/4

it throws an error on load in IE6 but works fine in Firefox. I'll blog about it when you get the IE bug fixed if you want.

I'll check it out and use next time I am writing a JS app. Would be very handy to see outputs when debugging,etc.

huh, didn't know that. I have been using C# for almost 3 years too

I haven't had time to test it out. Just a question from looking at the screenshot. How is this integrated with an actual script to debug?

don't you mean Request.QueryString["id"] ???

you have not appended the new element to the dom yet. Either add it ot he body or a wrapper of your choice. var newDiv = document.createElement("div");newDiv.id = "jsConsole";document.body.appendChild(newDiv);var it = document.getElementById("jsConsole");

it was most likely C++ or VB. Opening files that you are unsure of can be dangerous because by opening them you are giving them permission to execute which may lead to harmful things being done to your computer. I would hope that MSN scans transfered files for possible threats.

just do document.myform.submit();

I don't think you can do this through programming. You will need Flash (not the plug-in) and you will have to embed the mpeg manually.

you can use the DOM.if you want to add a new div directly to the body you can do this. var newDiv = document.createElement("div");newDiv.id = "newDiv";newDiv.appendChild(document.createTextNode("You text here"));document.body.appendChild(newDiv);

Thank goodness for that. Though they are such a large and successful company they continually give the impression that they really don't have a clue. Their failure to support so many things not to mention the fact that installing windows updates without having problems is less likely than winning the lottery.

I'll give that a tryEDIT: Playing witht eh security and privacy settings did nothing.

Yes that was what I was referring to. There was also some talk (IMO not based in reality) that XAML could give Flash some competition, but I think that is unlikely.

what are your security settings? Try allowing all cookies, etc.

I tested it in IE7 and had no problems. I attached an image of the IE build number.
