LCD Screen Types and Acronyms
I have never understood the acronyms associated with LCD screens. It seemed each time I looked there was a new one. Up until now I just memorized which one was better than another.

Pubic and Privates Methods
Does anyone else out here misstype the keywords public and private as pubic and privates? Truthfully, I never type privates, but I caught myself typing pubic today and reignited my 7th grade childish humor. Any other “bad” typo’s people know about that can be made in .NET?

Validators Not Submitting on an ASP.NET Form
WOW! I have been having this problem where my submit buttons would just stop posting back for no reason. It seemed that some pages would work, and some didn’t. I just didn’t know enough to even know where to look. Thank goodness for Scott Mitchell. He wrote up the reason for it here: http://scottonwriting.net/sowblog/posts/2943.aspx To […]
