Recently I managed a project which targeted iPhone and SharePoint server. This was a project for Dimo who are the dealers for Mercedes Benz in Sri Lanka. Total software services were provided by IronOne Technologies.
When we finalized the technologies I thought that this project will be an interesting one.
But the real interesting part was on the day when I saw all the Benz models present on the day. Even though I have seen international car shows before this, this is the first time I have seen this much of cars of the same manufacturer on the same place live.
You will agree after you see the photos.

Missing Textbox in BlackBerry Application
To find out the issue we had to even upgrade the BlackBerry OS and we found that in the new OS version the HorizontalFieldManager is having its default width wrong. So our textbox was hidden. We corrected it by the following change, making the sub layout always have a width that we prefer.
hfmtxtPassword = new HorizontalFieldManager() {
protected void paint(net.rim.device.api.ui.Graphics graphics) {
graphics.setBackgroundColor(Color.WHITE);
graphics.clear();
super.paint(graphics);
}
protected void sublayout(int maxWidth, int maxHeight) {
super.sublayout(278, maxHeight);
}
};

Enabling Office SharePoint Server Publishing Feature
- Some of you might get a message saying publishing is not enabled since Office SharePoint Server Publishing Infrastructure is not active.
Changing the Default Welcome Page of a Site
This is done by going to "Site Settings" and accessing the "Welcome page" option under "Look and Feel" category.
- If you cannot find a link named "Welcome page" that means you don't have Office SharePoint Server Publishing enabled on your site. If you need more help on how to enable Office SharePoint Server Publishing please feel free to read my next post.
Now browse or type the page that you want to set as the welcome page and click Ok.

Temporary Internet Files Location
Knowing the location is really worth if you edited a file while keeping it in the temporary folder and accidentally close the file without saving it into a proper place.
Exact same thing happen to me, even though I knew the place where it would go in a Windows version prior to Windows Vista, but surprisingly it was different in Windows Vista.
So had to struggle a bit to find it, and I was too late to recover the changes that I did to the document. But since it is here, you are not too late.
C:\Users\ArjunaC \AppData\Local\Microsoft\Windows\Temporary Internet Files\Low\Content.IE5
The trick here is the folder named 'Low' is completely hidden by Vista, even you enable, show hidden and system files and folders the folder 'Low' will not appear. But you will be able to type it and browse the contents of the folder.
