From time to time we get bugs on production that can be fixed by for example by changing a configuration, disabling some part of the logic, and such. I've argued with my manager that we should reproduce the bugs locally to ensure the fix works, and more importantly so developers and QA can include the check for these cases as part of th...
UPDATE: the HTML was not well formed. This was causing the script to appear in inner div. Please ignore the question. IE ver<8 has a known bug (Internet explorer cannot display the page. Operation aborted) If a script tries to append something to upper level block: The bug is described here: Update: I rephrased the question and simp...
I am planning to write a bug tracking tool for a company. I haven't committed to the project yet, but I would like to know your thoughts. I am pretty good at C++ and am learning C# now. I know some Javascript as well. How much time would it take for developing a basic bug tracking tool? (With myself and a junior developer working on it)...
What are some of the nastiest, most difficult bugs you have had to track and fix and why? I am both genuinely curious and knee deep in the process as we speak. So as they say - misery likes company. ...
Hi. I've got a JavaScript running 2 ".getElementById('').style" changes. Both work perfectly in FF, but the first one doesn't work in IE7.

In fact, the width of the input is 92px. For the input...

I appear to be having a problem with ASP.NET MVC in that, if I have more than one form on a page which uses the same name in each one, but as different types (radio/hidden/etc), then, when the first form posts (I choose the 'Date' radio button for instance), if the form is re-rendered (say as part of the results page), I seem to have the...

What is the most expensive software bug / defect you've seen in practice. There are some famous cases like the Therac 25, but I'm interested to know what issues you've seen yourself or heard of directly. We all have "a friend who used to work at an old company" and would never admit to accidently charging peoples credit cards ourselves...

Eg: Does anyone know a work around that allows you to add 32bit PNGs with an Alpha channel to an ImageList and retain the transpare...

I sometimes get frustrated at my work due to the perceived buggyness of my code. But I think I am producing no more, and probably less than most people. For example I have just finished developing a project that took 3 months where the testers found around 10 genuine bugs and probably 10 other non-bug changes (ie. can I change the color ...
During development i have observed that certain PDAs with Windows CE and possibly Windows Mobile too are sending the Enter key twice in the key pressed event thus i execute twice the code that lies under the control's key press event for the return button. I suspect that this is a hardware bug and i would like to ask how you resolved it...
I have a page where the infamous 3px extra vertical space (below each li element) is being rendered in IE7 on all my list items. I have a specific situation where I need text absolutely positioned within the li, so that its container can be set to a smaller width, & the text extends beyond the container. Here's the code I'm using: <styl...
It's another Visual Studio 2008 HTML formatting question...I think I have either found a bug in the infamously bad VS HTML formatting, or I'm doing something wrong. Here's what I'm doing: I remove all client side tags via: Tools -> Options -> Text Editor -> HTML -> Format -> Tag Specific options I then add b and span tags: I press...

Hi guys, I'm about to submit a bug to Microsoft. The following html is displayed fine in a browser, but in VS designer it makes the entire page scrollable - as the table isn't clipped by the div: <div style="width: 800px; height: 100px; overflow: scroll;"> <table style="table-layout:fixed"> <tr> <td style="widt...
