Microsoft Windows 7 prima data in Noua Zelanda si Australia

Microsoft a confirmat saptamana aceasta ca Windows 7 va apare in 22 octombrie, prima data in Noua Zelanda si Australia.

Aceasta declaratie ciudata are un singur motiv, Noua Zelanda si Australia sunt primele tari pe glob conform fusurilor orale GMT si de aici rezulta ca 22 octombrie va fi prima data in aceste doua tari.
Cu intentia ca lansarea Windows 7 "sa urmareasca razele soarelui"(nu cumva sa prinda vre-un blue screen ca altadata). Microsoft a declarat ca incepand cu 22 octombrie noile calculatoare de pe rafturi vor fi echipate cu Windows 7.


Un numar mare de organizatii, companii software, banci, chiar si banca nationala al Australiei acum analizeaza noul Windows 7 si se gandesc sa migreza catrea noua platforma al lui Microsoft.

Cei de la ZDNet.com.au au fost informati de utilizatorii si testeri care au incercat si au folosit Windows 7 ca sunt foarte multumiti si majoritatea vor trece de la Windows XP sau Windows Vista.

Microsoft din Australia nu a putut confirma dar global Microsoft a confirmat ca va oferi garantie celor care vor cumpara PC-uri echipate cu Vista, inaintea lansarii lui Windows 7 ca vor putea trece la nou sistem de operare gratis sau cu un discount.

Detaliile acestor promotii vor sta la dispozitia retaile-rilor ca si in trecut, desi Micsrosoft a spus ca promotia va fi aplicabila celor care au cumparat PC-uri cu Vista Home Premium si altele mai scumpe(Windows Vista Basic exlus de pe lista).

Garantia tehnica nu va intra in vigoare imediat, dar Microsoft a promis celor care deja detin Windows Vista ca le va oferi un anumit discount pentru Windows 7.

Sanitizer provider is not configured in the web.config file. Ajax Control Toolkit and HtmlEditorExtender problems.

The Problem Today I had a hard 2 hours, and if you have found this blog post, I bet we are in the same shoes. I was working on a ASP .NET + windows azure project, and I needed the HtmlEditorExtender   control from the Ajax Control Toolkit . I was lucky to find a control for my needs. So far so good. I've installed the toolkit with NuGet Package manager, it added a reference to the assembly to my web.config. I've used the following code where I needed the HtmlEditorExtender: < ajaxToolkit:ToolkitScriptManager runat ="Server" /> < asp:TextBox ID ="txtComments" TextMode ="MultiLine" Columns ="60" Rows ="8" runat ="server" /> < ajaxToolkit:HtmlEditorExtender TargetControlID ="txtComments" runat ="server" /> </ asp:Content > Just to see how this control works. As you can bet ajaxToolkit is the refe

DataTable to TreeView in C#, Displaying Hierarchies

In this article I will show you how to display hierarchies in a TreeView control, when your data is in a DataTable. In this example we have an Employee table with 3 columns: ID, ParentID and Name. ParentID is the ID of the boss for the current Employee. The first step is to sort the table by the ParentID . This step is really important because we cannot insert a node in the tree until it's parent is not inserted. Notice the root of the tree having a ParentID of -1. Here is the code for this: The second step is to use a XmlDocument. The TreeView control does not have the functionality to find an arbitrary node given a node ID. A recursive find function seems to be too much hassle, not to mention the performance, so I decided to take advantage of the XPath search capabilities of XmlDocument to find a given Parent node. Here is the code for this: The third step is to hook up our data to the TreeView. If you try to bind the TreeView control to an XmlDocument you w

'ascii' codec can't decode byte 0xe2 in position 50: ordinal not in range(128)

Disclaimer: I'm not a python developer :) Yesterday I've found a tool that I needed, it was written in python. Nothing special, get a list of links from a csv, login to a page, and access a link from the opened page by match. The script was old(2 years), and it needed some refinement, but I managed to make it work to start griding my over 7000 links, after 30 minutes later I saw it crashed with a strange error: UnicodeDecodeError: 'ascii' codec can't decode byte 0xe2 in position 50: ordinal not in range(128) I've started to investigate the issue, found some information on stackoverflow, but I was confused, I don't really know python that well. What I've found is to make some changes in the config files from python, which I don't really know how to do and it was not recommended, or to use decode('utf-8') function on the string variable and usage that caused the issue. As you can see in the full error log, listed down below, I tra
