      home

      still <----

      and it turns out that the reason why the network at home wasn't working was the router not the server. That was 4 hours wasted last night...

        12 hours later and I'm not much further than I was this morning. Don't think I can bill client for 12 hours of going in circles.

            Do you already have jQuery on the page? If so, a suitable plugin might save you a lot of time. If not, find a suitable plugin and use it as the basis for a solution.

            Apologies if you've already thought of that and it won't fly for some reason

              Did originally look for a plugin when we built it several months ago, but there doesn't appear to be one that does what I need. Bunk gave me a nice simple bit of code that more or less did what I needed.

              Got the scrollbar thingy working OK by capturing clicks outside the listbox and, if the listbox is visible, treating that like a blur (my original idea of a div was a no-go as there's no blur event on a div). Problem now is with the partial postbacks and rebinding. Worked fine before my tweak, but is somewhat temperamental now. I have tried about a gazillion different ways of doing it and back to where I started which is at least working most of the time. It refreshes on a timer (it submits batches of stuff, and refreshes the results till it finishes.)

                Haven't had a beer, or any booze at all, since the pub on Saturday. Now making up for this lamentable state of affairs with a Poacher's Choice

                  Oh, and I cleared out some VMs I don't need at the moment from my MBA. 33GB freed up, which is a good chunk considering it's only a 256GB SSD.

                  Every so often I wonder where all the space has gone, then get around to running DaisyDisk and find old VMs for testing on IE that I don't need

                  Then I have need of them and put them back on, and after a while they end up sitting unused for months, and off we go again.

                    Amazing scenes here tonight, as I remember to make sandwiches to take in for my lunch tomorrow

                    The commentariat waits with bated breath to see if I actually remember to take them in the morning

                      I forgot to have lunch today. I've bought some grapes and bananas for tomorrow.
