New code sample:
Sortable AJAX Grid
I saw on the news today that the Enron Top Dawgs were convicted. Hell yeah! Whether or not they get appropriate sentences... well, that's another matter entirely. The cynic in me believes that if they get any prison time at all, it will be at one of those exclusive country-club prisons you hear about... Personally I think they should go up to Chino and have Big Bubbas as cell mates... But it doesn't really matter, because Karma's a bitch and these two will get what they deserve, one way or another!
In other news... I found a really cool XML tutorial. I like it when tech tutorials are a bit cheeky...
Sunday: Day of... Toil?

Dammit, I always get that one wrong! Hehehe...
I got bored with tweaking my messed-up sitemap this morning and decided to write a code sample: ASP XML Proxy. This script retrieves an XML feed server-side from another website, and displays the feed as if it were coming from your own website.
My reason for using something like this is because client-side javascript will not let you consume a feed from a website other than the one your javascript lives on... so this is a handy way to get past that obstacle. Pretty cool, and pretty easy too.
Update!
I am finished with the Sortable AJAX Grid... this one is really cool so check it out!
