DOMValidators and Firefox
Sometime ago, I released a set of free set of controls called the DOMValidators ( available here http://www.theglavs.com/DownloadItem.aspx?FileID=28) that are a set of client side validation controls that basically mimic the validators that come with Visual Studio.NET 2003 except that they work in many other browsers apart from just Internet Explorer.

Quick Fix Notification on AsyncClientScriptConnector Control
I have recently updated my site (http://www.theglavs.com) with a new look as I mentioned here, but in doing so an old version of my AsyncClientScriptConnector control crept onto the site and has been there for the last couple of days. I have noticed a bunch of people downloading it, so if you have grabbed a copy of this in the last couple of days, please go grab the copy I have there now as its the "proper" version. The previous one used an older version of the ICallbackEventHandler interface.

New Web Site, Personal Web Site Starter Kit, MVP Award
I had a few days of easy going in between chapters so I thought I'd catch up on some things I had been putting off. I had upgraded a majority of my old site to V2.0 a little while ago but had yet to put the final touches on. You can see it at http://www.theglavs.com . Its based on the Personal Web Site Starter kit (http://msdn.microsoft.com/vstudio/express/vwd/starterkit/default.aspx) that is freely available. You simply install it, and have these ultra functional web site templates ready to customise. I'll be posting a full review, with some pain points in an upcoming ASP.NET Podcast (http://www.aspnetpodcast.com) soon so look out for it.

WSE3 and "Username over Certifficate" turnkey policy
I have been doing a bit of work with Web Service Enhancements V3 and its various turnkey security policies lately. WSE3 offers simplified policy implementation via the use of these "turnkey policies". Basically, WSE2 supported (as best as it could given the incomplete standards currently) for WS-Policy. WSE3 takes a different approach and doesn't really offer WS-Policy support, however offers direct support for these turnkey scenario's which are just implementations of some of the more popular WS-Policy implementations. Kind of like pre-packaged WS-Policy solutions.
