feedback request on design issue

Hey all,

Database Info:
I have an employee database management system.
There's about 8 tables that makes up a single record for an employee.

ASPNET:
I have a datagrid list of Employees.
When a user clicks on a particular employee an employee object will be
created.

Here's where I'm requesting feedback from you all:
I'd like to take the user to a tabbed page for the selected employee. I'd
prefer no postbacks as a user clicks the tabs (note: the tabs pretty much
represent a particular table in the database for that employee).

Now, I've heard the buzz word going around about Atlas. If I choose to go
with Atlas, does this mean I have to load up all the tables that comprise the
employee on the initial postback? And if so, for the collections involved,
would it be fine to have the actual objects loaded up in the collection (as
opposed to using a structure for quicker display purposes)?

thanks,
rodchar

Hi, I would appreciate your opinion on the following issue. Suppose there is a windows (not web!) application that uses the data stored on an SQL server. There can be more than one concurrent user of the app, so the concurrent database update is an issue. There are also plenty of forms that when displayed have some or all controls pre-filled with data, which is stored in a number of different tables in the database. Question: what...

I personally disagree with the Viewable in Any browser campain. The site is frankly outdated, seems to be no longer maitained, has several recommendations that don't make a lot of sense anymore. In my mind, it is much more important to code according to standards (valid markup and CSS code) and good coding practices (tableless design, graceful degradation, etc.) than to code according to the lower common denominator among browsers. ...

DropDown lists and Listboxes do not appear in the list of controls and values passed back to the server on PostBack in Request.Form object.

Hi, all I would like some feedback on a multithreaded HTTP server I've written. The server serves python-scripts by dynamically loading scripts in the same directory as itself. When a request is made to one of these scripts the script is executed and its output is returned to the requester. Here is the server code, HTTPServer.py: # Basic, threaded HTTP server, serving requests via python scripts # Author: Tor Erik Soenvisen

Both are written in Python and provide excellent issue tracking. They differ a bit in design and approach to issue tracking, so you will likely need to investigate a bit further before you decide. Both are easy to extend and adapt to whatever needs you have.

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
