Queenstown Property

I had a quick skype conversation to Dave Fea in Queenstown. He pointed out a Great New Zealand Real Estate website. Check it out.

Enabling IIS Compression

Scott Forsyth writes an excellent break down of how to enable IIS compression in IIS6.0.

Basically it is not as simple as just going to the web site properties, selecting the service tab and enabling compression. Scott goes into detail on changes you need to make to the Web Service Extensions and the IIS Metabase. He also details how to enable or disable the compression service on a site by site bases from the cmd line.

ASP.NET - Submit Bug

I just a published a small website for work - Being Alternative Transport Week on the 12-20 Feb hare at Tauranga City Council we create an atmosphere of competition over the week with teams competing against each other to clock up the most Km via alternate transport. Such as
Walking (steps), Busing, Car Pooling in or Cycling. Different points awarded for each method etc... They then log the distance and the method on the small website I created. Simple.

Yea Right. On publishing the website from our staging server to our live server something happened. The submit buttons stopped working in IE. Validation seemed fine just no submit buttons. On checking the difference between the staging server and the live server I noticed the following:

Staging server:

<form onsubmit="ValidatorOnSubmit()">

Live server:

<form onsubmit="if(!ValidatorOnSubmit()) return false;">

On investigation. A hunt through Google results. The cause: BUG: The Submit button on ASP.NET pages does not work after you install the .NET Framework 1.1 Service Pack 1

For more information on the cause I also found an excellent entry by Scott Mitchell which goes into greater detail on whats happening. Check it out.
