One of the greatest problems with the Oracle Cost-based Optimizer (CBO) was not a problem with the CBO at all, but with the failure of the Oracle DBA to gather accurate schema statistics. Even with...
When your application is collecting a lot of data on the Web in one session, it's often helpful to break the data entry form into a series of pages forming a wizard. Such a data entry wizard is...
Persisting a cached DataSet using the WriteXML method can produce very large XML files. .NET 2.0 introduces a new System.IO.Compression namespace that provides stream objects for compressing data.
This article explores the basics of working with XML data in an Oracle database using ODP.NET and Visual Studio. NET, paying particular attention to: Loading an XML Schema into the database; Loading...
This paper from the MPR Fall Processor Forum 2005 explores programming models for the Cell Broadband Engine (CBE) Processor, from the simple to the progressively more advanced. With nine cores on a...
The most monotonous entities in the known universe, forms, are a staple of every web programmer’s balanced diet. Whether we like them or not, forms are the gatekeepers to our site’s goodies and often...
All of the most interesting AJAX applications that have appeared in the past couple of years use the XMLHttpRequest object extensively to give users a responsive in-browser experience without the...
Exciting as it is, adding Ajax functionality to your applications can mean a lot of hard work. In this third article in the Ajax for Java developers series, Philip McCarthy shows you how to use...
In this article we will have a look at the implications for accessibility and usability when using Javascript to dynamically update a web page. I will also show how you can increase accessibility for...
This article shows a simple and elegant way to do this by including a couple of lines of JavaScript on your JavaServer Pages (JSPs). While we show how to reuse existing Struts actions, the techniques...

You're probably sick of articles expounding the virtues of XMLHttpRequest by now, well this isn't one of them. While I am suitably impressed with the uses that have brought dynamic retrieval of data...
One of the least user friendly features of most websites is forms. The longer the form, the more annoying it gets. However, a new technology called AJAX (that has nothing to do with household...
Now, it's time to have fun with Managed C++ and all that prep work from the previous article by actually building some custom Web controls. This article examines the first of the three types of...
One reason for this explosive growth is that PHP is free and open source. It’s also a relatively easy language to learn and the de facto standard for developers creating dynamic Web pages. But it is...
There are better ways to hunt down logical errors in your code. Tools (like Zend’s debugger and profiler) aren’t an option for everybody, so I’d like to focus on a more generalized practice that can...
In the first article we used PHP to include common page elements such as headers and footers on our pages dynamically. We then used a switch statement to dynamically serve the main content of the...
