I know the feeling,the flavour of Ext I work with is around 8 years old.
It's horrible the way it wraps controls in a nest of divs that is so deep it plays hell with UI testing frameworks like Cypress.

And here I thought you were going to be knee-deep in this for days to come.
I really need to stop putting up with crap. I've been dealing with some Angular fixes for a week or two now, and there's plenty more to come.
Let's just say there's a reason I'm not a web developer.

Me and you both, I'm old school and the only thing ( largely ) missing from my CV is Web stuff , but the more I see of the mess which is the Web, I don't want it on my CV - or anything else I respect

Web development, if I have no choice by then, probably is going to be the reason I'm going to retire earlier than most.

Hi All,
Five minute rant while I drink ![Java | [Coffee]](https://codeproject.freetls.fastly.net/script/Forums/Images/coffee.gif) , why oh why is Jira being a b***h, I want to make my tests hard to get wrong (I given up on idiot proof, they evolve faster that I can keep up). I make a link one way to the web page where the XML is stored in GIT, link is perfect working  . Do the same thing to access the remote 365 Excel page, link does not appear and link is shown in blue text  Try googling talking to the Jira expert we have at work still no luck  . I am now thinking it could be due to orfice 365  anybody any ideas...)

Refuse to access Jira. It is the only way to get rid of it, it has to be boycotted by everyone.

IIRC, orifice can be set to disable links to "executable" files. This includes any files that may contain macros, including Excel, Word, etc. files. This is done so the intellectual proletariat won't load every virus / rootkit / worm in existence into the company's network by clicking the links in their Inbox that promise that "they MAY have already won 1,000,000 Dollars!"
Try creating a .zip of the Excel file, and see if you can link to that. If you can, I think that the point is proven.

Nope, they're a pop band from Denmark[^], and trust me: You do NOT want them on your playlist!

The only real Danish cartoon band is Disneyland After Dark. They are welcome on my playlist any day! (Yeah they had to tweak their name a tad, but WE KNOW!)

In the 1980s there was a very cool band in the SF Bay Area that played mostly old cartoon music. I still have a bootleg tape of them.

Let's not draw any conclusions that may incorrectly set the tone of the thread.
Just note well that animate does not refer to bestiality !*

Got assigned a task to add some functionality to the front-end.
Javascript (if it were well written Javascript, no problem, but this stuff...)
Copy & Paste (refactoring into re-use is pretty much impossible)
ExtJS -- my nightmares don't compare to the horror of this framework
Much gnashing of teeth
I try to have a positive attitude. Really, I do. I know that my distaste (like the way stomach contents tastes as it comes back up) is a self-fulfilling prophecy of loathing, it's just so hard to think positive thoughts.
Oh well...here I go...
