Patrick,
Thanks my session verify function was causing the problem and I have removed it temporarily from my authentication scheme.
I am using the "check_timeout" function that was developed a number of years ago as part of a "How To" section in the old HTMLdb days. I knew there was an issue with this routine as the newer versions of the browsers handle cookies differently and I was going to redevelop it at some point. Do you know which part of the function causes the issue?
Many Thanks,
Jon
FUNCTION check_timeout
RETURN BOOLEAN
AS
l_session_expire VARCHAR2(256) := NULL;
l_cookie_exists BOOLEAN := TRUE;
BEGIN
IF htmldb_custom_auth.get_user IS NULL THEN
RETURN TRUE;
END IF;
BEGIN
l_session_expire := owa_cookie.get('HTMLDB_IDLE_SESSION').vals(1);
EXCEPTION WHEN NO_DATA_FOUND THEN
l_cookie_exists := FALSE; -- no cookie set, assume first page visit after login
END;
IF l_cookie_exists

I am honored to be on the list, however I wish it wasn't for the reason it was.
Unmentioned in your post is the outpouring of support for the Funimation channel. This channels cancellation, due to what is quickly turning out to be a less than factual reason of 'low viewership' from Verizon, has mobilized many of your customers. In fact, I'm sure that most of the people in your list this week were kudo'ed for posts in 1 of 2 threads:
Funimation Canceled!
Save Funimation Petition
If we are to look at the pure numbers, at the time of this writing those 2 threads combined for a total of nearly 950 kudos and 3800+ views. Even more telling: 198 of the 200 most kudo'ed posts are people SUPPORTING Funimation Channel and against Verizon's decision to cancel the channel. (http://forums.verizon.com/t5/kudos/leaderboardpage/board-id/FiOS_TV_Entertainment/timerange/one_mont...
IMHO (and no offense to Justin and his very helpful document) either of these 2 would have made a much more appropriate 'Thread of the week'.

Send a message from a list of emails in lightswitch 2013.4 HTML screen using ajax

Hi There,
any idea how to make a button to send a message from a list of emails in lightswitch 2013.4 HTML.
my idea is to send message to all emails in the details picker (or the drop down menu or a choice list) tat is filled by SQL query (as a data source in lightswitch)
i have read many articles, most of them were written in PHP or VB !
for example:
http://www.devarticles.com/c/a/HTML/Sending-email-with-AJAX-building-a-small-application/1/
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/22442074/how-to-send-email-to-a-list-of-addresses-from-lightswitch
http://lightswitchhelpwebsite.com/Forum/tabid/63/aft/75/Default.aspx
http://maxslabyak.com/c-sharp/using-jquery-to-send-email-with-web-services/
http://www.paulspatterson.com/microsoft-lightswitch-sending-emails-from-the-client/
http://www.quercussolutions.com/blog/index.php/microsoft-lightswitch-sending-emails/
http://www.lightswitchspecial.com/2013/01/7-most-easiest-way-to-send-email-from.html
as far as i know, the HTML screens in lightswitch 2013 can be encoded with ajax only, not vb or C# any more!
my project contains only HTML screens, no desktop screens. i know that i can do the VB programming in the tables actions, but i am looking to have this code in the Browse screen to give me more flexibility depending on my decision to
send or not..
help please :)

Hello Hasan,
I do this using a generic handler(e.g. sendmail.ashx). In the ashx file i use this code:
Imports System.Net.Mail
Imports System.Web
Imports System.Web.Services
Sub ProcessRequest(ByVal context As HttpContext) Implements IHttpHandler.ProcessRequest
Dim str As String = "there was no error "
Dim Recipient As String = Convert.ToString(context.Request.Params("pRecipient"))
Dim strsub As String = Convert.ToString(context.Request.Params("pSubject"))
Dim strmsg As String = Convert.ToString(context.Request.Params("pMessage"))
Dim msg As New MailMessage
Try
' Your mail address and display name.
' This what will appear on the From field.
' If you used another credentials to access
' the SMTP server, the mail message would be
' sent from the mail specified in the From
' field on behalf of the real sender.
msg.From = New MailAddress("[email protected]", "Displayname")
' To addresses
msg.To.Add("[email protected]")
'msg.To.Add(New MailAddress("[email protected]", "Friend B"))
' You can specify CC and BCC addresses also
' Set to high priority
msg.Priority = MailPriority.High
msg.Subject = strsub
' You can specify a plain text or HTML contents
msg.IsBodyHtml = True
msg.Body = strmsg
'msg.Body = _
' "Hello everybody,<br /><br />" & _
' "I found an interesting site called <a href=""http:'JustLikeAMagic.WordPress.com"">" & _
' "Just Like a Magic</a>. Be sure to visit it soon."
' In order for the mail client to interpret message
' body correctly, we mark the body as HTML
' because we set the body to HTML contents.
' Attaching some data
' msg.Attachments.Add(New Attachment("D:\Site.lnk"))
' Connecting to the server and configuring it
Dim client As New SmtpClient()
client.Host = "mail.gmx.com"
client.Port = 25
client.EnableSsl = True
' The server requires user's credentials
' not the default credentials
client.UseDefaultCredentials = False
' Provide your credentials
client.Credentials = New System.Net.NetworkCredential("yourcredentias", "f2f081639ad")
client.DeliveryMethod = SmtpDeliveryMethod.Network
' Use SendAsync to send the message asynchronously
client.Send(msg)
Catch ex As Exception
str = ex.Message
Finally
msg.Dispose()
End Try
context.Response.ContentType = "text/plain"
context.Response.Write(str)
End Sub
When you create the ASHX then replace the ProcessRequest with the above function.
In LS HTML Screen create the function for pressing a button an appen the following text:
$.ajax({
type: 'post',
data: {
pRecipient: Screen.yourdata,
pSubject: Screen.yourdata,
pMessage: Screen.yourdata,
url: '../sendmail.ashx',
success: function success(result) {
alert(result);
This is a way you can do that. In VB and out of your browse Screen.
Hope this helps

How to add .js link in custom list form through sharepoint designer 2013

hi friends
so far i was adding jquery code to script editor webpart in custom list form.
but i need to know how to add .js link in custom list form through sharepoint designer 2013
please help me.

Hi,
We can add the "JS Link Property" in the “WebPart” node in the custom list form page through SharePoint designer 2013.
Here is an example for your reference:
<JSLink xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/WebPart/v2/ListForm">~site/Style Library/js/custom.js</JSLink>
Noticed that, we should not lose the 'xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/WebPart/v2/ListForm' attribute.
Best Regards

Error occurs when I open the tasks list in MS Project Professional 2013 from SharePoint 2013

Hi,
I have created a SharePoint 2010 workflow for a tasks list that updates a list item column if the Date Complete <= Today's date & Percentage Complete = 100%
I used 'Set Field in Current Item' in the workflow & the values are updated in the list for the current item.
However, when I open the tasks list in MS Project Professional 2013 from SharePoint 2013, then I get a error "We can't write task - taskname to the SharePoint site. This is either because tasks list is in read only mode or because this task has a column
that requires unique value."
If I remove the 'Set Field in Current Item' in the workflow, then the error does not occur. However, the 'Set Field in Current Item' in the workflow is required.
Please provide solution to this issue ASAP. Your reply will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance

Hi Jack,
A shot in the dark here. I'm not convinced the error is from the workflow. What is the definition of the list item column in SharePoint? Have you set the column to requiring a unique vale? Look at the column definition.

Debugging XSLT of Business Data List web part in SPD 2013

I am working on a Business Data List web part in SPD 2013. I want to customize that complex XSLT that got generated by the web part. It will be really helpful, if I can debug that XSLT. But I am not sure, how to debug XSLT from SPD? If at all, I need to
debug through Visual Studio also, I need the XML also, which I don't have. Can anyone please help?

Hi Ven,
XSLT debugging , I have never heard abt it. Its like UI design and you modify it and test it in Browser. Thats the only way.
one such sample is http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc300164(v=office.12).aspx

What is the update number causing this issue?
Sounds very similar to this issue:
http://blogs.vmware.com/workstation/2014/10/workstation-10-issue-recent-microsoft-windows-8-1-update.html
Are you running the most recent version of VMware Workstation 10?
For more support for VMware products, a better place is the VMware forums, as this forum is for Windows 8.x Hyper-V. (

Is there anyone that can provide assistance on this?
Thanks!

Most Helpful Member:
This would have to go out to Justin this week. A member wanted help with "Setting up the IMG Guide to just show channels that they actually get" We were reminded at how helpful it is sometimes to point each other back to content/solutions already previously posted. Justin had written a user guide on that very topic previously with "Exploiting TV Favorites."
Most Noteworthy Quote:
"In contrast to those users who claim they aren't being given the speeds they were advertised, FiOS customers in our forums indicate they're actually getting more than they paid for." Great observation, Hubrisnxs!

I think Justin's picture should have won this one. Really I am not being modest! If I wanted I could have a Rev. E on one Channel, the first Rev. I on another Channel, the Second Rev. I on the third channel, and the 300N on the forth channel. I think I would need to figure out the overlap and spread them out, just to mess up the Neighbors.
Don't even ask how I ended up with two Rev. I Actiontec routers. The Rev. E I was told to dispose of, but at one time it was fine for a MOCA bridge. Now I have no MOCA.
