In a project I am currently working on there is a facility for Umbraco users to export Membership and Profile data. As part of the export the client also wanted to include the groups a member belongs to and here is how I achieved it, I hope it is of use to someone else. Member [...]

In an ongoing project I am working on I needed to adapt a custom user control that was being used as a DataType in Umbraco. I needed to locate the nearest node that had a specific property set and default the selected value of my control to the value of the property in the parent document.

I recently upgraded TwitterBerry to v0.8 on my Blackberry Pearl and it stopped working, every time I tried to connect I got a ‘Network Request Failed’ error.

For some reason or another I ended up with a corrupt default.aspx.designer.cs file in a recent web project, a quick check with my best friend(Google) and the solution it seemed couldn’t be easier.

- @dotMailer A cop out to say the existing one is beyond your control as you chose it to begin with, good that its being replaced though
- Government response to petition 'ie6upgrade' http://bit.ly/dCw93F

- #Dotmailer editor system is a PITA because it changes all the markup once you put your campaign into their editor!
