Blooper on Google Fast Flip

Just check the link, Google FastFlip has a blooper.

What happened actually (in my opinion) is that Google has an application that opens URL and takes pictures of the desktop and saves them in there fastflip. So in this blooper the website gave a popup, and as Machine is a Machine even though it was a computer with an application running on it.

This blooper is of News mentioned below.

Anchor in HTML controls in ASP.NET

I had to make a new menu in an ASP.NET web app. but the problem that i faced was how to use "~" to reference the root, if i had folders inside the root with pages.

So the solution is

< a href=" < % = Page.ResolveUrl("~/Common/DB/ViewRecords.aspx") % > " > < / a >

Windowless control error

In some applications, when you use an external activex control, it gives you an error that the app does not support windowless controls…

So the solution is to goto project properties -> Compile -> Build Events then in Post-Build event command paste this

call "$(DevEnvDir)..\..\VC\bin\vcvars32.bat"
call "$(DevEnvDir)..\..\VC\bin\editbin.exe" /NXCOMPAT:NO "$(TargetPath)"


This will make that control work in Run Time, but still it will give error on debug mode, so for debugging you have to use message box or labels and write error log or event log.
But it will make it work at the end.
