    Here is an example: http://community.spiceworks.com/topic/1190263-java-script-inserting-an-image-into-a-pdf-form

    In this discussion, he titles the post "Java Script". But there is no Java Script, there is Java which is not a scripting language and there is JavaScript which is. So it would either be a Java program (lower case p) or a JavaScript script (lower case s.) The use of the upper case S in Script implies that he believes it to be a part of the name, but there is nothing with that name. He tags the thread "Java" which implies he truly means Java, but where did the word Script come from? Nothing in the topic provides a clue as to what he is doing. There is not any context to determine what language he is referring to. And given that he is unsure how to refer to them or that there could be confusion it is completely realistic that he does not mean either.

    I see what you mean. And also, if you're making the change in the web.config, that should trigger an application restart anyway.

    Something is preventing the pageSecurity object from being set. You could do a global text search for "pageSecurity" and find the code that sets it. That may be where the failure is happening.

    Normally I would expect this to be caused by a missing security-related table, like Roles or something. But you said it was a full copy. You might want to double check.

    There is a bit, but it is very limiting. C# is far from a dominant language in anything but desktop application development. It's a good language loaded with power, but it's costly to manage as pretty much everyone runs it on IIS. Once you get to any scale the cost of C# really impact you. I've never seen a shop of any size doing any critical systems on it, just little ones that don't really evaluate long term risk well.

    My comment was more in regards to broadcasting to the world that I was in a moving vehicle and posting.

    We would never assume such a thing of you.

    I'm sure you were pulled over or just about to begin motion of said vehicle.

    Move to C#, things are even easier. BASIC language constructs are not the most clear and easy to use. It was originally designed for learning, not for using.

    And learn, I did.... So much so that when I look at code written in C#, it leaves me going: Wha? If it's Visual C#, I can poke my way around it a little bit. I'm getting better at it, but I'm generally goingto write web apps in PHP and Windows Apps (rarely written at all these days) in VB.

    To clarify - we provide services for other NP's under the same funding envelope (fed/prov $$)

    Makes sense, just can't do that in the US so we are not used to it. Much more lax non-profit laws up there it sounds like. Business services can't be not for profit here.

    Nice find.

    Thanks. I have a love hate relationship with Jade at the moment. I'm sure after I get used to working with it I will like it, just like almost everyone else.

    I started developing in Javascript. I am really liking node.js and everything that goes along with it.

    We like it here as well, depending on the next year or so we may start switching everything over to it.

    PHP was very young then. It has been growing steadily in capability since then. It is very powerful now, but it has really stiff competition now too.

    Don't know who said it, but competition breeds excellence!
