Every once in a while, you have a domain but the hosting is at another party that does not allow setting the “Host header” for name based virtual hosting.
So then you want to redirect the page to the hosting party, preferably with keeping the URL in the address bar.
Some how, when searching how to do this (I do it once every couple of years), I always miss the WikiPedia entry at the bottom of this post.
It’s not just that the directive causes this nagging because “of course we can’t remember that users haven’t given us consent for storing cookies, because that would require storing a cookie, so the consent banner will always appear until the user has actually given consent.”
Some other valuable tips are in this article as well. Now go read it (:
If you (want to) do web-development with Chrome, then be sure to read the articles by Umar Hansa | Nettuts+.
At the time of writing, there were three articles centered around using Google Chrome as part of your developemt suite, and a few more on things like HTML 5 and CSS:
Microsoft’s PDC 2010 was held at the end of October 2010 in Redmond, WA, USA.
For the people that could not attend, it is very nice to view the sessions using the PDC10 player (it seems still people didn’t learn and start stripping the century parts from years again!).
Even if you are not using Visual Studio, .NET Azure or other Microsoft Technologies, there are a lot of interesting sessions showing the directions that Microsoft is taking.
Comparing that to what you do today is always a good thing to do: it helps you reflect, an important part of your personal development.
A few things I found interesting (in no particular order):
Asynchrony support in C# 5 and VB.NET 11 based on the Task Parallel Library
The choice to favour HTML 5 over SilverLight, even though Internet Explorer 9 and Microsoft’s HTML 5 authoring/development tools are far from ready
Azure reporting: is reporting the next big thing on clouds?
Offline versus online in the cloud world
NuPack – does it bring package management to the same level as Ruby or *nix?
MSDN Germany has put on line a cheat sheet with the most important new HTML5 tags and attributes. The handy two-page information informs web developers about how to use the audio, video and canvas element through JavaScript, what CSS3, and geolocation can provide you with and how websites with “Pinned Sites” can become even more useful. Simply download the free PDF (2.17 MB) or XPS file (601 KB), print it, and place it next to your keyboard!
Note that the PDF and XPS are German, but very handy even though your German is not perfect.
