Wondering what happens inside those .NET classes?????????

Do you program using Whidbey???? or even VS.NET 2003????
I do, with Whidbey beta 1.
Anyway somebody pointed me to a product available freely. I, the inquisitive one downloaded it.
Executed it.
Looked good.
But what about the functionality???
It loaded up some dlls i had seen in .NET.. But what the heck he had used System.Reflection just to get the functions, something I had been doing long ago.
Was about to close it when i realised that the methods mentioned were links. As usual the curious me decided to explore.
Assuming that it will take me to msdn help for that method i clicked.
And lo and behold it showed me, I am serious, the full code in C#. Wow, there's something I can't do. Imagine knowing the IL for .NET and using it to build a full fledged disassembler. I seriously recommended dotnet Reflector found at Lutz Roeder's Programming.NET C# VB CLR WinFX for a really serious programmer. Found at the site are various other superb tools.

So you have your website deployed in PROD ... now what ??

Posting on behalf of Usr.Web.Speed - My previous job had been to architect and develop websites for various customers. During that time my team and I have architected and developed various web applications mainly for enterprises. (But below info is not restricted to enterprises) Other than the usual development and testing tasks involved, our focus area was to abide by multiple SLAs. One of the primary SLAs was to provide the users of our websites a very low (usually subsecond) response time (or page load time). To adhere to this SLA, we did multiple activities, in code, process as well as infrastructure. These include (but not limit to) - Using best practices including (http://developer.yahoo.com/performance/rules.html) Determining the optimum number of calls to the databases, open connections, etc. Providing the fastest mechanisms to download associated content (such as stylesheets, JS files, etc. over CDN) And debugging the reason for the slowness of the websites, when ...

My first problem with AJAX

I was using Callback (AJAX) to retrieve a page i had developed . Lets start all over, I was using AJAX to retrieve a part of the contents of a web page. Cool, simple, it downloaded without a pain, then I innerHTMLed it to a span tag. Worked fine, successful, clapped my hands etc.etc. Clicked on the button which had seemed to appear out of nowhere. And then, it all fell apart. The feared exclamatory symbol appeared on the status bar.... And for the newbies, thats an indication of a JavaScript error in IE. Of course, as usual i was all curses at my IE window......Anyway to make a long story short (i AM quite sleepy u know). the scripts which i seemed to be innerHTMLing to the span tag are not executed. And what i mean is anything between the script tags which have been innerHTMLed to that span tag are not executed. Of course i can see a ray of hope in the distance. I mean the distance till tomorrow morning. And just for kicks, check out a hi-fundoo flash file titled EPIC 2004 . And for...
