ASP.NET Site Hangs Forever When Accessing Database via LINQ to SQL

I finally published a project of mine to some hosting I purchased from DiscountASP.NET. I'm very pleased with their service and minus the inability to contact them by phone, I prefer them over GoDaddy.

Finally Back Online!

My website, email, FTP, and...

Change Visual Studio 2008 Web Development Debug Server

I'm experiencing an odd exception when debugging locally but everything works fine when it's deployed to a remote development server. Someone suggested I use IIS locally when debugging, instead of the built-in Visual Studio Development Server (which I believe is called Cassini). So here it goes...

Remote Desktop Command Line Disconnect

Do you ever remote into many RDP sessions at a time? Have you ever played that really fun little game where you try to 'catch' the one drop down RDP pin menu that you want to close without closing down the entire session? You'll know what I'm talking about if you remote in a machine,...

ASP.NET Horizontal Menu Items Won't Center in FireFox

This took entirely too long to figure out. Hopefully this will help someone else fix it more quickly. If you have a horizontal ASP.NET menu where all of the buttons are centered and looking great in IE, but will remain left-aligned in FireFox no matter what you do, just wrap the menu control in a -Moz...
