How to turn on line number tooltip while scrolling infragistics ultrawebgrid

I once saw this feature in action but I don't know how to turn it on. The grid can show a tooltip with the current row number (or row ID) while dragging the scrollbar. This helps you to stop the scroll in the right place. I'm assuming some property will turn this on, but I can't find it. Maybe it is also dependent on the scroll mode? UP...

Dynamic Div Height Calculation - JQuery/AJAX

Hello, I've written a small lightbox plugin for jQuery (yes, there are several ready made packages -- unfortunately, the designer in my co. does not like any of them). I have one small problem -- I am using .load() to load dynamic flash content into the lightbox div. I am appending the div to the DOM, presetting visibility to hidden, a...

If anyone has any good resources that I can take a look into as I believe this is a good method to follow for "test driven" dev...

How to organize a webapp?

I'm starting my first webapp, and I'm not sure how things typically are done. I'm using Django and Apache: How do you manage a source control repository? Do you check out to a separate folder, and then have a build script that copies files over? What exactly should be added to the repository? In other words, how do you make sure that y...

So I have a category table set up. Within this table there is a field called "id", "name","fk_parent_cat_id" (and more). The "fk_parent_cat_id" basically just ties one particular category to a parent category. Ok. That being said, how would I make a query that grabs the information on the category, but ALSO grabs the information on th...

Is putting a div inside a anchor ever correct?

I've heard that putting a block element inside a inline element is a HTML sin: <a href="http://www.mydomain.com"&gt;&lt;div&gt; What we have here is a problem. You see, an anchor element is an inline element, and the div element is a block level element. </div></a> But what about if you style the outer anchor as "display:block" in th...

Why same origin policy for XMLHttpRequest

Why do browsers apply the same origin policy to XMLHttpRequest? It's really inconvenient for developers, but it appears it does little in actually stopping hackers. They are workarounds, they can still include javascript from outside sources (the power behind JSONP). It seems like an outdated "feature" in a web that's largely interlinke...
