This is why I’m starting not to like Microsoft anymore.

Hey, you are a serious company, not a joke.

Just a few minutes ago a friend of mine asked me how can he apply width attribute to a label (he’s trying to format a form without using tables). Well the idea is very simple. You need to use the label element, but because the label is an inline element, it cannot have width value; in order to do this you need to put display:block or float:left.

<!-- label, input {    margin-top: 5px;    float: left; } label {   display: block;   width: 100px; } -->

Because today wasn’t my best day I decided to transform each Tuesday into a Movie Day. With other words each Tuesday I’ll wath a movie ans share it with you. For today we have Perfect Strangers. I hope you like it. It’s a romantic comedy.

A few weeks ago Microsoft announced that they will continue to support IE6 until 2014. I know that many of us hate this browser but their reasons to support it seems to me OK.

According to IEBlog the user needs to make the final decision to upgrade:

“The engineering point of view on IE6 starts as an operating systems supplier. Dropping support for IE6 is not an option because we committed to supporting the IE included with Windows for the lifespan of the product. We keep our commitments. Many people expect what they originally got with their operating system to keep working whatever release cadence particular subsystems have. As engineers, we want people to upgrade to the latest version. We make it as easy as possible for them to upgrade. Ultimately, the choice to upgrade belongs to the person responsible for the PC.”

Cool news. I’ve just been enrolled on WebsiteSpark program.

What did I do to get enrolled?!….just filling a form.
What did I got from them?…Licenses for:

  • Expression Studio 3
  • Expression Web 2
  • Visual Studio 2008 Professional Edition
  • Windows Server 2008 R2 Web
  • SQL Server 2008 Web

That’s a good way to increase the use of ASP.NET. Good thinking MS. Keep going like this ;)

Hmmm….is greed really a good thing?!

If you like to see what Visual Studio 2010 and .NET Framework 4.0 can do for you, for sure you want to watch this video. Scott Guthrie is making a very good presentation.
