Can TextMate find matching opening and closing tags?

Something I liked in Visual Studio was that I could click an opening tag, say and it would do its best to highlight in bold the closing tag. Does anyone know if you can do that in textmate? I searched an looked but cannot find it. It gets hard to find the closing tag many DIVs deep. If TextMate won't do it, can anyone tell me an e...

Only one web part added to the wp gallery when multiple webpart files specified in module

I'm trying to deploy multiple web parts as part of the same feature. SharePoint itself seems to do this quite happily by specifying multiple File elements in a single Module element (see C:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\web server extensions\12\TEMPLATE\FEATURES\SearchWebParts); in my case, only the first web part is added ...

Alternative to TextPad's Prompt to Reload File

I have been using TextPad for years and I am happy with it except for one issue. I use it to monitor log files that are updated in near real time. Every time the log file is updated TextPad prompts me to reload it. Essentially I want to force the yes button at all times and never see the prompt. I submitted a change request at their site...

What features are the most important for data-bound grid controls

Certain features for data-bound grid controls are a given and should be available in any grid. Like rows and columns (other layouts are possible in many) and checkboxes for boolean values with text representation for other values.

"Refresh" SharePoint site column definition on lists that use it?

We deployed a feature that installs a custom site column named "Classification." It is a Choice column type. Now, we need to change the choices. We can update the XML in the feature easily enough, but it doesn't affect any of the lists already used the existing site column; they still see the old choices. Is there any way to send a r...

Editors with MiniMap like Sublime Text

Are there any other editors other than Sublime Text with the MiniMap feature as seen bellow? The reason why I'm asking this because Sublime Text isn't cheap for a text editor and besides I've tried the trial version and it still has some bugs and some important features like code folding are still missing. I've come to enjoy the Mini...

WPF capabilities

In my company we have in mind a redesign of the user interface of an application and we would like to make it ... let say "fancy".

MOSS features leave old leaf nodes in Database after retracting Solution

We have noticed that when after retracting a MOSS solution package, we are still left with incorrect leaf entries in the alldocs MOSS database table.

SharePoint Item Event Receivers and Site Creation

I have created an Item Event Receiver for a document library and I have test that the logic works correctly and it all does.

What are the implications of deleting a user account?

Most of the websites I've used in the past (including this one) do not offer an option to delete your own account. I think the main reason is to avoid the orphanage of the items created (or the delete on cascade of those items). Modern sites (like this one) have a place where those items go when an account is abandoned (in the case of ...

Web Application Feature Not Activated By Default

All that I'm trying to do is deploy a simple web application-scoped feature that is activated automatically when you install it.

Sharepoint bug when deactivating features

I have found that deactivating a feature in Sharepoint leaves erroneous entries in the AllDocs table in the content database.

How can I make sure deactivating features does not leave old refer...
