How much effort would it take to build a web store in ASP.NET MVC?

Another slightly non-technical question, but I couldn't decide whether to ask here or on Server Fault...

My concern is more about the accou...

I need to create a thermometer type widget for a website, where I can feed in a goal and current amount, then generate a graphic that shows the progress. I was thinking something with jQuery/CSS would be the best approach, but then I started thinking maybe just using a vertical slider from the jQuery UI library and skinning it. How wou...

In MOSS 2007, we could update the tag's callstack attribute to true and then customerrors mode to "Off" to see the actual error behind the 'An unexpected error has occurred' message.

Definition and practical meaning of @SessionScoped

I would like to understand the full meaning of the @SessionScoped annotation in a JSF ManagedBean. I guess it is related to the http session, but still, it's not very clear to me when it starts, when it ends and if it can be interrupted. If I leave a browser open, without activity, during 2 hours. Is the session still open? Is ...

invalid HTML rendering logic

Nearly all browsers use a certain amount of leeway in rendering invalid HTML. For example, they would render x < y as if it were written x &lt; y because it is "clear" that the < is intended as a literal character, not part of an HTML tag. Where can I find that logic as a separate "cleanup" module? Such a module would convert x < y to ...
