Quick note in case I spend as long as I did again. A Client had some clouds on the background of his photoshop file for his website. They were to be positioned in the top right corner with the leftmost tip aligned to the right of a central content section. I separated off the clouds as another div layer, specified the...
Update August 2011 So I don't know how many people were just saying why don't you do the following: Bring up the "Tablix Properties" of the dataset Look for the section "No Rows" Put in a value for "NoRowsMessage".

The What I'm going to run these benchmark tests against a system that is both up and running via th...
I thought I'd put something here as there are lots of posts like this on forums (a lot of which seem to be copied & pasted from other sites) but they refer to SQL Server 2000 or SQL Server 2005. This is how to do it in SQL Server 2008 and creating a report in Business Intelligence Development Studio (BIDS) or MS Report...
So this is a note to myself so that I have a checklist and can quickly update any extensions designed for Joomla 1.5.x and make these compatible with Joomla 2.5.x websites. In the past, I have only ever changed the words to but for more stability, there are a few more tweaks to do. How? For demo purposes we will be ref...
Thought I'd put a note on how to remove the toolbar using the URL as I didn't find this clear on the net. Tried it and it didn't work. That's because I was using the Reporting Manager URL rather than the Reporting Server URL.
Working principle
This site exists as a practical knowledge base built from real-world experience across systems, platforms, and technologies since 1999. Much of the content documents solutions, edge cases, and working patterns that were learned through investigation where documentation was incomplete or absent, and is shared to reduce the same friction for others.
