I use @-prefixed strings very often. You can use line breaks as much as you want. Very useful e.g. when I must create an xml in code. One thing I didn’t know was that you CAN use quotation marks inside @-strings. But you must write double quoutes like: var t = @"säg ""hej"" och ""hå""";

In one of my previous blogs I wrote about serializing of javascript objects. You can do it with JSON.stringify or Sys.Serialization.JavaScriptSerializer.serialize. Both methods work fine… almost. There is a big difference when it comes to datetime objects. MS treats dates a little bit different (like RegEx and much more). Let’s try this one: var writer = { name: "Ajgi", birthdate: new Date(1934, 8-1, 21) }; var json = JSON.stringify(writer); var msjson = Sys.

To get all users from an AD group is very simple: groupName = "an\_ad\_group"; PrincipalContext ctx = new PrincipalContext(ContextType.Domain); GroupPrincipal grp = GroupPrincipal.FindByIdentity(ctx, IdentityType.Name, groupName); var principals = grp.GetMembers(true); ```But what about an OU? There is no OrganizationUnitPrincipal... [Well, there is a solution: to instantiate a context for your OU](http://stackoverflow.com/a/1927476/632117 "See the solution on Stack Overflow"): So if you want to check if a user in a OU: internal static bool IsUserInOu(string ou, string name) { var domain = “takana.

If some javascript code takes too much time to execute, you probably want to see what time your code or a part of the code takes to run. I found an idea in Dave Cranes Ajax in Action. The book is a little bit old and the code provided below has been changed and simplified: var stopwatch = {}; stopwatch.watches = \[\]; stopwatch.getWatch = function(id, startNow) { var watch = stopwatch.

Want to add some tabs and new lines to your output in Powershell. Well, it works like \n and \t. But there is a little different syntax: `t and `n. Just a tip. An alternative way to add new line is to use [Environment]::NewLine: $nl = \[Environment\]::NewLine $var = "hej" + $nl Write $var

Just include it in your script or function: if(-not(Get-PSSnapin | Where { $_.Name -eq "Microsoft.SharePoint.PowerShell"})) { Add-PSSnapin Microsoft.SharePoint.PowerShell} By the way, I found it in PowerShell for Microsoft SharePoint 2010 Administrators by Niklas Goude and Mattias Karlsson. Powershell for Sharepoint Administrators. UPDATE: I found a better way to check a variable for null: Thomas Maurer. Powershell: check variable for null. It is like in javascript, just put it in the if-statement to test if it exists or not:

There is a question in Stackoverflow and this one, too. There is a fine solution for jQuery. The only thing we need is window.location.search. Say we have http://domain.com?q=hello&a=good#home, then it takes only ?q=hello&a=good, and leaves #home and the main url. Anchors can be retrieved with hash. Here are all properties of window.location: Google Chrome provides a fine function: window.location.getParameter: I like the name of this function. So why not to use it or create this one if a browser doesn’t have it?

There are many ways to reload / refresh a page in javascript. One of them is as in discoveringsharepoint.wordpress.com describes: window.location.reload() ```Today I found some tools which are shipped with ASP.NET/SharePoint to reload a page. The big advantage of them they are designed to work with SharePoint and take all possible aspects of page life cycle into account. The javascript function to refresh a page is just called, guess..: **RefreshPage** and it resides in init.

Want to run some javascript code everywhere, but not in a modal dialog. Because errors are occured, or this code is unnecessary i dialogs. Well here is a solution I have found after some experiments: $(document).ready(function() { if (!window.location.href.match(/isdlg=1/i)) { onDocumentReadyExceptItIsInDialog(); } }); function onDocumentReadyExceptItIsInDialog() {} ```This code checks with Regular Expressions if the url of the parent window contains IsDlg=1, if so nothing happens. In the usual case (not inside a dialog), the javascript code runs.
