CS4 Open Site Folder from Dreamweaver

Tuesday, 23 February 2010 15:21

Ever wanted to open your site folder in an explorer window by context menu?

Good news, I have developed a CS4 plugin which could be easliy converted to CS3 if needed that allows just such an operation. The plugin is written in the c extensibility for javascript which is very easy to use once you have a few tricks ironed out. The documentation of which can be found in 2 separate parts : Here and Here. The direct link to the C section is Here but you need to click on the tree view in the left panel to subnavigate the C API.

Dropped Cell Phone in a puddle

Have you ever dropped your cell in a puddle, a toilet or some other wet place?

I have not myself, but I have recently been a part of a situation where there was. If this ever happens to you, don't panic. The first thing you need to do is remove the battery as quick as possible. Once the battery is out, there is no source of power and therefore less chance of actually frying anything. Now that you have the battery out you will most certainly have to wait until you get to a dry place with a micro screw driver set.

Have you ever wanted an easier way to manage DNS.

Todays DNS management is mostly web based using 3rd parties like GoDaddy or Tucows to actually manage your domains and point either to a 3rd

party hosting company like HostGator or Netfirms. So what, what does this mean to me, there are already solutions to do what I want right?

Well for the most part that statement might be correct, but what if you want some level of control over your DNS or the interface that manages the

service. A couple of years ago, someone came up with the idea of DLZ or Dynamic Loadable Zones which is an easy way

Atom Processor Projects

Have you ever heard of the atom processor or of an ITX Board.

There is a company in the US that has created a bunch of boards with processors built right onto the board that make it quite easy to build a self contained

project for a pretty low price. The only caveat is that if you have to purchase from anywhere but the US, you will probably run into the usual border

crossing issues such as additional border fees for goods that are available in your country of purchase. No matter however, because the price is still far more

reasonable than you can imagine.
