Microsoft has made the next generation browser available for download here.
Windows Internet Explorer 8, as described is easier to use, faster and offers leading-edge security features in direct response to people's increasing concerns about online safety.
Furthermore, It can be downloaded in 25 different languages starting at noon EDT on March 19.
How many times you have cursed Microsoft for that single line error message that always appear for so many different reasons but always says "An unexpected error has occured." :-(
To have a more detailed messages in MOSS while you perform your development tasks, you may want to enable debugging in the web.config file for the SharePoint web application. Please note here that this is not recommended to be done in a Production environment.
Edit your web.config file as shown in red below:
<SafeMode MaxControls="200" CallStack="true" DirectFileDependencies="10"TotalFileDependencies="50" AllowPageLevelTrace="false">
And:
<customErrors mode="Off" />
And get rid of any bugs from your application quickly.
Good news guys. The most useful tool for the MOSS community has finally come out-of-the shell, it is believed to be made available for "FREE" coming 1st April, 2009.
Yes, you heard it right. Free, you may download the designer from the official Microsoft download site starting April 1st, 2009.
But administrators, watch out. There may be a bit of thinking required before the developers start using this tool to make those site-level changes. This could mean more efficient backup-restore planning would be required.
But definitely, this is yet another big step for MOSS to get closer to the world.
