Didn't know about this until now. I discovered this while I was investigating how a certain Web site still seemed to remember stuff about me even though I had cleared my cookies.

Quoted: Currently, only Mozilla-based browsers provide a working implementation of the DOM Storage specification. However, Internet Explorer does have a similar feature called "userData behavior" that allows you to persist data across multiple browser sessions.
...
DOM Storage is useful because no good browser-only methods exist for persisting reasonable amounts of data for any period of time. Browser cookies have limited capacity and provide no support for organizing persisted data, and other methods (such as Flash Local Storage) require an external plugin.

Quoted: Here's an experiment in keepings things small and confined to one Javascript file. There are no external image files or anything, everything is rendered with Javascript using either canvas elements or old fashioned div-making tactics (for IE). The sprites are stored in custom encoded strings in a format that only allows 4 colors for each sprite but in turn only takes up around 40-60 bytes per sprite.

You need to use an ASP:Button and not just an input if you want client-side validation in ASP.Net.

Quoted: The onclick attribute, along with the script, is added inside the AddAttributesToRender method of the Button control. The WebForm_DoPostBackWithOptions function can be examined in the rendered web resource JavaScript file within Visual Studio 2005, as explained in the above section. This function is in the resource file named WebForms.js. The function takes an argument of type WebForm_PostBackOptions. This function is also responsible for invoking the Page_ClientValidate function, which sets the value of the Page_IsValid member. The complete validation process triggered by the click of a button process can be summarized in the workflow below.

This is a very handy feature of the recently released Visual Studio 2008

Quoted: One of the features that web developers will really like with VS 2008 is its built-in support for JavaScript intellisense. This is enabled in both the free Visual Web Developer 2008 Express edition as well as in Visual Studio, and makes using JavaScript and building AJAX applications significantly easier.

Quoted: Neil Mix implemented a cool solution to do threading in javascript. It achieves a specific kind of multi-threading, with voluntary yielding and interleaved execution, which is different than what C++, Java or C# offer (preemptive multi-threading).

Quoted: What if you could say goodbye to alert and not-so-useful logger scripts and have a real debugging API to debug Javascript. While it hasn’t made it to the public yet, the next version of Joe Hewitt’s Firebug will finally give us an easy to use, full-featured debugging environment for Javascript.

cool. definitely worth a try!

Quoted: Essentially the Script# compiler is a C# compiler that generates Javascript instead of IL. A key driving goal of the design is to produce readable Javascript that you may have authored yourself, and would be ok deploying into real apps. Hence the translation works at the C# level, as opposed to converting from IL to script, and the converter doesn't add any levels of abstraction itself.

Quoted: Why a re-introduction? Because JavaScript has a reasonable claim to being the world's most misunderstood programming language. While often derided as a toy, beneath its deceptive simplicity lie some powerful language features.

not sure how exactly ie does it. but, i've been bitten a few times by the circular reference problem. i had 'a' holding on to a reference count for 'b' and vice versa.
