Template Monster - Display Template Search results on the same page
This blog post would be of interest to you only if you are a Template Monster Affiliate. Well, I am, and I was trying to display a Search form for users for searching templates on one of my network sites.
Ext.Net - GridPanel columns summary plugin (without Grouping)
People using ExtJs/Ext.Net/Coolite might be aware of the GroupingSummary plugin, for the GridPanel that allows you to group GridPanel rows on a particular field, and then display columns summaries for each set of grouped rows independently (see here and here for ExtJs & Ext.Net/Coolite examples respectively).
ExtJs - Preserving RowExpander markup across View Refreshes
I am using nested GridPanels inside a parent GridPanel's RowExpander plugin for quite sometime now. And everything was working wonderfully till recently, when I hit a major hiccup.
Ext.Net - Custom Tools for Panel & Derived classes
Tools probably are one of the lesser known but highly useful components of the ExtJs/Ext.Net/Coolite frameworks. Tools allow you to add minimize/maximize etc. type of buttons found on regular GUI Windows, and respond to their Click event (see the adjoining image for an example of tools).

Configuring ADSL modems for BSNL broadband services in India
I recently procured an ADSL modem for use with my BSNL broadband connection, and had some anxious moments trying to configure some configuration parameters to make it connect successfully to the Internet. So, thought of sharing like parameters here. Well, here they are:
Hosting PHP 5 sites on MediaTemple
After recommendation by my brother to try MediaTemple as a Hosting Provider, I moved one of my client websites (based on WordPress) to MediaTemple last month.
My initial view of the service was reasonably satisfied, except for I would have liked a more functional Hosting Panel, especially related to backing-up & restoring databases (instead of having to do it each time manually via SSH, maybe I have been spoiled by CPanel).
