Carousel of Politico
Date: 18th March 2008 Category: misc 4 comments
Noticed a very nice Ajax/JQuery carousel of images on the homepage of Politico.com. Look for the Wuerking drawings on the right hand column, political satire. This is a javascript rotation of images with a popup to large image routine. The JQuery plugin appears to be created by Jan Sorgalla at http://sorgalla.com/jcarousel/ Many examples including dynamic data. Perhaps i will expand upon my own work section with this package.

Wireless Zero Configuration service is not available
Date: 16th August 2007 Category: misc No comments
The Dell Inspiron 6400 (XP with SP2) with the Broadcom Dell Wireless 1390 WLAN Mini-Card (4.100.15.5) developed a nasty habit of dropping wireless connection and refusing to acquire an IP address via DHCP. In running diagnostics, provided by Broadcom somehow Windows Zero Configuration wireless was disabled. The user in this case loves to use the icon on the lower right to connect so i added a problem that must be fixed. Microsoft provides a knowledge base article for this problem see the link below. Back to the wireless problem. Dell tries hard but their web site reminds me of the maze in "The Shining". Luckily, the fix was not an update to the Broadcom mini-card. Basic house cleaning cleared the Dell's wireless. Delete all wireless connections from memory and rebuild the wireless connection you need from scratch. So goes Windows, trying to solve one problem can lead to additional damage. (Use at your own risk!)

No not really. Wishful thinking, as Filemaker continues to suck the life out of its customers. (TechNet membership) See Bob Cusick's article at Bob's World.
