OK thanks for the sound advice, esp about that doughnut hole; never heard of that before and I sure am glad you brought it up... Thanks

Huh, always wondered how to get the "quote" thingy to work!

Last month. It's been giving me intermittent problems since mid-May: http://www.codeproject.com/suggestions.aspx?msg=5057829#xx5057829xx[^]

Bad command or file name. Bad, bad command! Sit! Stay! Staaaay...

Judging by the bugs reported immediately after the release, you can probably add, "a date that will live in infamy". Big Grin | :-D

I'm trying to upgrade jQuery in our app and received this message from a plugin:

Quote:
blockUI requires jQuery v1.2.3 or later! You are using v1.11.3

There are only 10 types of people in the world, those who understand binary and those who don't.

Don't you love it when a version comparison is done by string, not by numeric value?

Man, the last time I encountered that stupidity was some 20 years ago.

What do you get when you cross a joke with a rhetorical question?

The metaphorical solid rear-end expulsions have impacted the metaphorical motorized bladed rotating air movement mechanism.

Do questions with multiple question marks annoy you???

You must be on a really old version of the plugin[^] - the latest version requires jQuery v1.7 or higher.

Are you still supporting IE6/7/8? If not, is there a reason you're sticking with the v1 branch instead of the v2 branch?

Yes, but it goes to 11... Laugh | :laugh:

doanchyano, "11" < "2"? (as strings)

So I posted a question in the C# forum trying to figure out why my app settings were not reloading.

My class has properties for each setting:

public bool IsSensorListVisible
{
    get { return _IsSensorListVisible; }
    set
    {
        if (_IsSensorListVisible != value)
        {
            _IsSensorListVisible = value;

            save();
        }
    }
}
.
.
.

Notice the call to Save?? So the CTOR calls Load, which sets each property, which then calls Save...

DOH!!!

<slaps forehead="">

If it's not broken, fix it until it is

This is the very first thing a junior programmer is smacked over the head with -- do not have hidden functionality ESPECIALLY IN PROPERTY SETTERS

Smack

I'm still dealing with code like that which was written by a very senior programmer who is no longer here. GRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR Dead | X|

That's just copy & paste, i.e. code duplication. Object reuse would have been to link to the post containing this "picture". Poke tongue | ;-P

The good thing about pessimism is, that you are always either right or pleasently surprised.

It's a subclass, actually. Mine is slightly different. Poke tongue | ;-P
