What this means:Your jsp/jspx file has grown too big.
Fix:Do a JSP include.
It helps split the file up and yet to the browser the page still looks like it is one file.
Here is what the include looks like: <%@ include file=”/includes/NewFile.jspf”%>
There is a trick where you can get ADF not to create a Page Def file for NewFile’s but rather point to point to the first one. I never figured that out. What I did was let ADF create the NewFile’s page def and just mirror it from the old file. I know, this is really bad but it had to be done at the time.
Sorry for the lack of posts lately. My blog software got corrupt on my hosting company. This week I made the move over to DreamHost and everything seems to be going very very well. I’m really happy with them so far.
I have signed onto a new contract that will take me from Vancouver to Victoria almost every week for the next few months. We only have one car right now ( because I mainly worked at home) but this has forced me to go out and find else. I contacted sales people all over the lower mainland in the last couple of weeks and dealt with the pushy the liars and the desperate.
I have to say, although I did not buy a car from him, the best sales person I have ever come across is Sin (sin@capilanoaudi.com) from Capilano Audi. I explained to him what I needed and he was honest, not pushy, he advised me on cars that were not even on his lot, and he truly had my well being in mind. Unfortunately he did not have the car we wanted but when it comes time to replace our other car we will use him 100%.
Even though when I applied the iPhone 2.0 restore it bricked my iPhone i’m still not going to break down and get a 3G. It’s been since Saturday that I have not had a phone.. but I can wait.
So the thinking was… I have a Rogers account, the iPhone is now supported on Rogers, I’ll plug it in and update to iPhone OS 2.0. Nope. I got an unsupported SIM card error.
So if you live in Canada and you have a Rogers SIM and you want to just upgrade your old phones software to 2.0, wait for the hack/unlock.
So all the talk about the iPhone 3G has got me thinking, do I want one? I certainly don’t need one… I have an iPhone 8GB and so does my wife… But I’m always the guy that has to have to all the Apple toys… So it makes this really hard choice, harder than one would think. Alas, my final answer is NO. And here is why:
1) I don’t want to get slammed by Rogers’ rates: As much as I hate having an iPhone that can’t get online, and trust me, it is harder than you think. This phone wants to be online.. badly. But I just can’t justify I can’t pay more money to Rogers! My bills are at least $200 a month for my wife and I and we are light users.
2) I don’t want to be in a contract right now: Right now I am month to month with Rogers and there has been a lot of talk about a new telco on the block soon. I think I’ll wait for whomever it will be to join. This will hopefully start a rate competition in Canada, something we don’t have. If things get better, which they should, I would like the option of leaving Rogers.. noting would make me happier than no paying them anymore money.
3) Everything else is software: So if I don’t have a data plan… I can get all the benefits of the new iPhone with a software update! I keep having to remind myself that all the cool stuff that I am looking forward to on the new iPhone will be in the iPhone 2.0 firmware update. Yes, data and GPS would be cool but I am mostly looking forward to the iTunes App Store and I can get that for free! That kind of settles it for me
4) Apple will undoubtedly come out with a 32gb model too soon: ’nuff said. No one likes that feeling.
5) The battery life is much shorter: I love the fact that I don’t have to plug my iPhone in every night… in fact, I plug it in about twice a week. Mossberg states in his review that you would have to learn how to manage the battery. He says that some days he did not get through a work day without it running out… that is not going to work for me. I have gotten used to the long battery and I know that Apple with fix this in the next version.
6) Lastly, I just bought a new condo. :S and I don’t need more bills
I never heard of any of the other applications by these guys but it they are simple and work as well as this little widget they are worth checking out.
I read thedailywtf.com all the time.. I think it is hilarious.. Anyways, a while back I posted this picture on my blog and submitted it to thedailywtf.com. Today I noticed they posted it.. ha! Too funny. It’s cool to see my pic on a site I visit all the time.
‘I was at the theaters in Lake Forest, Orange County, watching some previews,’ Kamran Kazempour said, ‘and this came up on the screen for a minute or so before the feature. ‘
That is pretty interesting… I wonder what kind of OS/Browser they are going to use. Although since the BMW system is all ready able to talk to the iPod and now iPhone I don’t see why they just don’t allow it to use Safari and render it on the iDrive screen. If the browser is going to be implemented by the same people that did the iDrive then, really, what’s the point of doing it at all…. it’s going to un-usable.
BMW to offer in-car Internet access via iDrive in North America: “In what could be the best thing to happen to iDrive since its inception, BMW on Monday announced it will offer full-blown Internet access in its cars via the controversial interface in North America. Back in February, BMW announced this ability is coming to Europe as part of a ConnectedDrive option package.”
At first read, I thought Apple was putting an Apple store down in Victoria… On second read, I thought they were hiring for one of the resellers.. but why would Apple post a job for a reseller…?
So it looks like Apple is opening a Apple iStore mini in (what could only be) a big box store in Victoria. The only logical place I can think of is Future Shop… ( and some local rumors point to this fact as well). Future Shop has the square footage and always tried to resell Macs but their un-informed sales people knew nothing about them, so it was never an option. I don’t think it will be London Drugs because they already have a good Apple section and typically very low square footage to allow for a store-in-a-store concept. I think Best Buy is out because it only has one location out of town.
My other hunch is that it is going to be a pilot program for Apple. If this mini store goes well, we will soon being seeing mini Apple stores pop up all across the country. I guess given this country’s large size and low population, it is a great solution… Provide hosted mini Apple stores across the country and then drop full-size stores in major cities… It took them enough time to give one to Vancouver though .
So in the long run this is great for Canadian consumers.. We will now be able to shop at Apple stores, get Apple trained sales people, and students have a place to get their student discounts on the spot.
For the resellers in this town, and soon across Canada.. looks like your reign is up… You’ll have to start treating your customers better and start thinking about offering service consulting as a big part of your business..
It’s about time Apple took notice of Canada.. now if only we can get a legit iPhone soon I’ll be happy.
