I am working on redhat 5.2 on a project which spans several disparate organizations. Each organization delivers libraries which have been compiled with various versions of g++. Currently, these versions include 4.1.1, 4.1.2 and 4.3.1. I am trying to link all the libraries together into an executable using 4.1.2. What, if any, problem...

Can I develop asp.net 3.5/2.0 projects using Visual Studio 2010? Or I will be stick on .Net Framework 4.0? ...
For the moment we're still working with the 2.0 framework and and although 2.0 provides all the necessary we need for the moment, we'll have to move on to 3.5 sooner or later. The other day there was an in house discussion going on whether there is any risk involved in this upgrade, and this risk was not to be taken lightly since all our...
It just occurs to me that for the past decade, all books on HTML/CSS always talk about browser incompatiblities and how to get around that issue by adding more "hacks" to CSS, JS, or HTML. Why is that they never advised that the other way to deal with that (and I believe the best way) is to add code (php, c, whatever) in the first line o...
Does anyone know if these stats are collected or exist anywhere? Any anecdotal evidence is at least slightly helpful ...

We have a COM OCX that catches various keypresses to IE when it's loaded into a web page. This OCX works well in IE6, however does not catch any keypresses in IE7.

First, to be clear, I am not talking about LINQ to SPRocs. I have an existing DAL that uses over a 100 stored procedures. This was created when this program was a web app. Now it is a winform app in a sometimes connected environment that uses a local db. I have left the existing DAL in place in the interest of time but am now find...

Is it possible to create a library that can be consumed from .Net 2.0 and also allows .Net 3.0+ consumers to benefit from DataContracts if they wish?

I have an installer that works perfectly under NT 5.x, Vista, and Windows 7. It contains the proper manifest for UAC on NT 6.x. But starting with Windows 7 RC, every time the setup program closes, Windows produces an erroneous "This program might not have installed correctly" message, even though the program did install correctly with ...
Hopefully some has some knowledge of this. I'm fast realising that IE8 certainly can't be ignored anymore. I had previously put it down to either a) just a buggy piece of software, or b) still to small a piece of the market share. Now, however, I'm seeing more and more requirement to make sure sites work on it. My question is can I ...
Facebook Connect and their "Social Widgets" documentation mention that you need to add an xmlns attribute to your <html> tag on the page where it will be used.
