ASP.NET – Automatic CSS and Javascript versioning

In: ASP.NET, EPiServer

Letting browsers cache files is a great way to improve your page load speed but also to reduce your bandwidth usage and ultimately save some money. It’s a win-win situation! Yslow recomends that files are cached at least 2 days, Googles Page Speed recommend 30 days. However, letting visitors cache css and javascript files can [...]

The iPhone (and now iPad) SDK supports reverse geocoding out of the box. Reverse geocoding means you have a coordinate and want to find out where you are located, for instance, the name of the street you are on. Forward geocoding means you know the name of a location and want to find the coordinates. For [...]

Fixing IE8 XForms support for EPiServer 4.x

In: Development, EPiServer

If your EPiServer site is running a version older than CMS5 R2 and you (or your clients) are using Internet Explorer 8 you’re having problems creating XForms.

In: iPhone

The upgrade was handled by our friendly neighbor and also our new ISP: DGC. We did encounter one problem after the upgrade that I assume others will face as [...]

Spotify – Share your music, share your account!?

In: Ramblings, iPhone

Spotify is an awesome app for the iPhone, however, you need a premium account. Or do you? Most users will probably use the off-line mode to avoid the sometimes overly expensive data plans. If you don’t want or need to stream music it turns out you really don’t need a premium account! At least not [...]
