After posting my sort of rambling, pointless What’s Next for Me and Sympraxis Consulting?, I got a *lot* of very useful and kind responses. (If you like that rambling, here’s another fix for you.) Many of the responses were direct, so you can’t see them in the comments on the post. This is going to…
It’s a little late, but I wanted to get a blog post out about v0.5.2. I released in on Sunday, March 7. Since then there have already been almost 200 downloads! Also see my prior post for information about the library with SharePoint 2010. There was one interesting thing I dealt with in this release which…
For months now when people have asked me about whether the jQuery Library for SharePoint Web Services will work with SharePoint 2010, I’ve been pretty much dodging the question. I didn’t want to spend the time testing with beta software (my alphas and betas are always open to changes) and I didn’t want to mislead…

To do this, I relied on the substring functions which are available to us in XSL. In this article, I’ll go over a few of those string functions and show you…
Jim Bob Howard and I have been going back and forth thinking about this for a few days now. You’re not going to believe how simple the answer is! I found a post that told me the simple answer: Just query the list like any other list! Here’s the simple test I just did in…
Cross-posted from EndUserSharePoint.com… As I got into writing this “last” article in the series, I realized that between the things people have asked me over the course of the series and the things I think might be useful, I have far more than one more article to write. I think I’ll keep this series going…
This post may come off a little whiny and entitled, but bear with me, as I don’t mean it that way. I was on vacation recently and did some long, hard thinking about where I am in my career and where I want to go. This cow has been giving away milk for a long…
I got a question today via Twitter and my blog that I thought I’d share: Further to Twitter message, I need to lookup values in a large list (thousands of items).
