Paging in Mobile Web Forms

The biggest difference between web applications designed specially for use on Mobile Devices is the limitation imposed by the small screen size of Mobile devices. We have to work with a different mind frame to come up with user interfaces that are more compact and yet deliver information as needed. However, you cannot practically reduce the content displayed on a mobile form beyond a certain point – and this is where our example focuses on – We will discuss the simple but immensely useful features of Pagination and the PagerStyle for Mobile Forms.

Understanding Network Models – The OSI Model

I have to assume that after reading the title to this week’s article you probably let out a low, discerning groan of displeasure. Of all the networking topics that I’ve ever taught, the OSI model is the one that will generate looks of angst and torture on the faces of students. Some simply tune out and play solitaire, while others shake their heads in the familiar “not this thing again”. Still others pretend that there’s no time like right now to catch a half-hour of shut-eye. One thing that has never happened is someone’s eyes lighting up and them shouting “I love the OSI model!”. The reason for this is simple. This is often the first thing that people are ever taught when it comes to networking, and it was probably explained in such a way that they didn’t understand it to begin with. A theoretical model is a terrible introduction to the world of networking. The good news for me is that most of you probably already have experience in the field, and will hopefully be able to appreciate how important network models really are.
