Happy New Year! (let's hope its happy...)

So much has happened this past year - I'd like to forget about most of it...

Some of the bright spots were leaving a job I disliked, getting a job I enjoy very much, meeting new friends and seeing old friends.

I hope 2008 will be a quiet year of good fortune, good friends and family, and less stress...

Happy 2008!

Frustration

I don't know why some programmers out there have to make their explanations for coding solutions so complex and confusing - just give us the code, how it works, and shut up. Don't go into how smart you are and talk above everyone's head - this isn't a lecture hall and things would go much smoother without you trying to one up the rest of us.

Man, I been waiting to say this for so long, its like a motto to me - cut the crap and let's get on with it...

OnClientClick function

Found this great functionality by accident while trying to get a hidden field value to be set BEFORE the page was refreshed. I spent hours trying to set a hidden field value to a default value, but couldn't find a good way to do this. Turns out that OnClientClick happens before the page is refreshed. Something to remember for future use. I set the OnClientClick="javascript:document.some_field.value=X;"

Welcome to my blog...

Well, here's goes nothing...

Someone told me that blogging is therapuetic - let's hope so, since I can't really afford a good therapist right now...

I plan to post about work and some personal insights, but I'll stay away from politics and religion, since those 2 areas bring out the best/worse in me...

Well, enough babble, on with the show!
