I recently came across this problem again. It was a while since last time. Anyway, the sitemap would not show when placed inside a child master page (a master page that inherit from another master page…just to be clear). After messing with it, I remember what I did last time.
On the child master page, set the AutoEventWireup=”true”. That’s it.
You ever wondered…What are those “%20″ codes in URLs?
Uniform Resource Locators or (URL) is a Uniform Resource Identifier (URI) that specifies where a known resource is available and the mechanism for retrieving it. For example, http://www.google.com
Sometimes you come across some weird URLs that contain %20, %22, etc. It will be great to clean the URL and see the path of the resource. Well, I found a pretty neat URL encoding converter what will take the guessing game out the URL mistery. Check it out.
Has your computer been acting funny, crashing, running slow, or displaying unusual error messages? Have you been promiscuously clicking on Web links and opening up attachments from strangers? You could have a malware infection.
CNET just published a FAQ article addressing this common problem. They discuss the following question:
What are the warning signs of an infection?
What are the chances I’m infected?
How do I check for an infection?
How do I remove an infection?
How do I manually remove it?
How do I prevent future infection?
I used some of these tools but one of my favorites are Malwarebytes, SpyBot Search and Destroy, AVG Antivirus and Avast Antivirus. However, you can read the full article by clicking the link below.
This fall, in select theaters, the movie “I Want Your Money” (IWYM) premieres. IWYM takes a humorous look at a very serious subject — the economic conflict between those who believe the money you make is best in the hand of those who earned it, and between those who think it is best to be redistributed by the federal government.
To find out where the movie is playing or how to get it to show at your theater, please visit http://www.iwantyourmoney.net

Game developer THQ unveiled on Tuesday the uDraw GameTablet. The accessory, which is designed exclusively for the Wii, allows people to draw and color on a 4-inch by 6-inch surface with a detachable stylus. As the player draws on the tablet, the artwork will show up on your television screen. The tablet’s uDraw Studio software, which comes with the tablet, is what allows players to draw and color.
There was a story on CNET last week regarding a law suit that alleges that a group of well-known Web sites, including those owned by Disney, Warner Bros. Records, and Demand Media, broke the law by secretly tracking the Web movements of their users, including children.
Very interesing because we know that spywares and other tools out there track and collect your information and we have this idea that sites like the ones above are “safe”. Humm, looking forward to here the outcome of this one.
Apple demos the power of HTML5, CSS3 and Javascript and how it can be use on your website. You have to download Safari in order to see the demo (may be that’s the catch) but I have to admit, as a web developer…this is pretty cool stuff.
The categories available for demo are: Video, Typography, Gallery, Transitions, Audio, 360 and VR.
It all started when a neurosurgeon watched his 3-year-old daughter pick up and immediately start using an iPod Touch. If a toddler can use this, he thought, surely neurosurgeons can.
So, after months of planning, May 3 marks the first day of the American Association of Neurological Surgeons first paperless annual meeting in Philadelphia this week. Each of the roughly 3,000 medical attendees will receive a free iPod Touch in place of what used to be a 165-page program book and briefcase-size bag.
Perhaps better still, the iPods, each of which comes with a slender, nylon pouch, are theirs to keep, according to AASN Exhibits Manager Ken J. Schott, who replied to my query using a BlackBerry.
Today a upgraded one of my clients DNN site from DNN 5.0.2 to DNN 5.2.3. The reason fro this upgrade was a strange bug on the HTML module that was making characters (á, é, í, ó, ú and other Spanish characters) show up as “?”
Yeah, very weird. So after doing some research and posting the problem under the DNN Forum, it was advise that I upgrade the site.
I first installed a clean DNN 5.2.3 installation and tested to see if the HTML module actually was fixed to handle the issue above. Since everything seem to be working fine, I proceeded with the upgrade.
This are the steps I took to accomplished. (Have some trouble at first so I leaving some breadcrumbs for future users). These instructions are simply a guide. There are many out there. Please follow careful and don’t scream at me if they don’t work for you. They did for me.
PLEASE DO NOT SKIP THIS STEP
Backup your files/database before upgrading to a new version
Download the Upgrade package from DNN website
Unzip and copy the contents (Folders and Files) to override your existing DNN application
Rename your old “web.config” file to something like “web.config.backup“
Rename the “release.config” file to “web.config” file
With both files open “web.config” and “web.config.backup” copy from “web.config.backup” the following sections
<connectionStrings>
bla bla bla bla bla
</connectionStrings>
Note: I left this setting <add key=”AutoUpgrade” value=”true” /> unchanged. So my login information for Admin and Host was not working until I copied this settings from the “web.config.backup” <machineKey validationKey=”bla bla bla bla bla” decryptionKey=”bla bla bla bla bla” decryption=”bla bla bla bla bla” validation=”bla bla bla bla bla” />
Finally, simply browse to localhost/DotNetNuke_Community (or whatever you have used for your url) in your web browser. The application will automatically execute the necessary database scripts and provide feedback in the browser
This work fine with me. My skin, content and data remained unchanged. But most importantly…it fixed the “?” issue. I hope it helps someone else out there.
Wow this will be fun. Can’t wait to play Pictionary on the Wii.
