I like adding functions to jQuery so this function would help: jQuery . fn . center = function () { this . css ( "position" , "absolute" ); this . css ( "top" , Math . max ( 0 , (( $ ( window ). height () - $ ( this ). outerHeight ()) / 2 ) + $ ( window ). scrollTop ()) + "px" ); this . css ( "left" , Math . max ( 0 , (( $ ( window ). width () - $ ( this ). outerWidth ()) / 2 ) + $ ( window ). scrollLeft ()) + "px" ); return this ; } $.fn.center = function () { this.css({ 'position': 'fixed', 'left': '50%', 'top': '50%' }); this.css({ 'margin-left': -this.width() / 2 + 'px', 'margin-top': -this.h...

Error :  Sys . WebForms . PageRequestManagerServerErrorException : An unknown error occurred while processing the request on the server . The status code returned from the server was : 404 Solution :  I used HTTPWatch to get the URL the request was being posted to.

Introduction Performance tuning can be tricky. It's especially tough in Internet-related projects with lots of components running around, like HTML client, HTTP network, Web server, middle-tier components, database components, resource-management components, TCP/IP networks, and database servers. Performance tuning depends on a lot of parameters and sometimes, by changing a single parameter, performance can increase drastically. This document lists out some tips for optimizing ASP.NET Web applications and many traps and pitfalls are discussed. Tips For Web Application Turn off Tracing unless until required Tracing is one of the wonderful features which enables us to track the application's trace and the sequences. However, again it is useful only for developers and you can set this to " false " unless you require to monitor the trace logging.
