DevelopMentor Courses - Wednesday, February 29, 2012 - jQuery UI and Windows 8 and Internet Explorer 10 touch screens
Microsoft has shipped Windows 8 and Internet Explorer 10 and the jQuery UI draggable effect doesn’t work there as is. I recently did a blog post describing how to enable the jQuery UI drag effects. In this post I showed how to get the draggable effect to work on an iPad. While that works just fine it isn’t the end of the story. The solution Fortunately the solution is a lot simpler and doesn’t require an additional plug-in. It turns out that Internet Explorer 10 has quite a good support for pointer and gesture events. It turns out this is rather simple. 1: $( "#draggable" ).css(

No problem, but now when I want to test or add a service reference to this WCF service I ran into the problem that WcfSvcHost and WcfTestClient both will run a x64 because I’m running Windows 7 x64.

DevelopMentor Courses - Tuesday, March 1, 2011 - Enabling Tincr on Windows 8
This works really well with one exception, on Windows 8 it will not install. Basically his solution is to run Chrome in Windows 7 compatibility mode and install Tincr. Some time ago I posted a blog post on Tincr and live reloading of CSS/JavaScript in Google Chrome. When you try Chrome shows the following error message: This application is not supported on this computer. Installation has been disabled. The Chromium team has acknowledged this as a bug but it still needs to be fixed. After that Chrome can be started in the normal way and Tincr will work just fine. Enjoy!
The Problem Solver - Friday, December 21, 2012 - Using RavenDB with Azure websites
While using RavenDB as a Windows Service or hosted in IIS is probably the best way to go in most cases there are a number of cases where the embedded option is great. In a previous post I explored various options of hosting RavenDB. And one of the places where I really like the embedded option of hosting RavenDB is when doing simple standalone websites. And with the new Azure website option that is a great way to host them. The code is real straightforward and just like before. 1: public static DocumentStore DocumentStore { get; private set; }. 2: 3: private void CreateRavenDB(). Enjoy!

DevelopMentor Courses - Saturday, December 31, 2011 - jQuery UI and touch screens
It works perfectly with a mouse but with an iPad all you do is drag the whole browser window. I really like using jQuery UI in my web applications. But even though jQuery UI is very well tested there are some potential issues to keep in mind. One of those is using the jQuery UI controls on touch devices like the iPad. With these touch enabled devices becoming more and more popular support is quite important if you don’t know you exact client configuration. The problem The reason jQuery UI doesn’t always work out of the box is because they use the mouse events. Enjoy

The Problem Solver - Monday, December 31, 2012 - Secure WCF REST Services with a Custom UserNamePasswordValidator
This assumes you’re running Windows Vista or later. For earlier versions of Windows you will need to use httpcfg – see here for more info. Download the code for this blog post here. When securing WCF services you’re faced with a choice: Message versus Transport security. Unless you need to conceal messages from an intermediary, your best bet is to stick with transport security and use SSL to secure messages traveling over HTTP. This means you can eschew the complexity and overhead of message-based security in favor of the simpler and leaner model of transport-based security.
