Howdy my dear readers, I hope you must be doing great!
Yes, I’m back here to write a new blog post after so long time. Sorry for not sharing anything with you since so long. But got busy with lot of bits and pieces. But it’s good to be busy, the busier you are the more you have to share!
So, keep visiting – going to share more with you in upcoming days! [Free advice: You can subscribe to this blog via EMAIL SUBSCRIPTION box given in right side – which means that whenever any new post gets posted here, you will get an email!]
Challenge:
I got a chance to use Jquery UI‘s Modal dialog in my application. Now, whenever we used to open a dialog and when we open it, it was showing scroll-bar on parent page.
Applying overflow-x:hidden or overflow-y:hidden; to the body element of the document will not work. The overflow-x:hidden or overflow-y:hidden must be applied to the html element, not body element.
A big Thanks to all my readers/visitors! I would like to share the joy of celebrating a great milestone with you all. The blog hits 2,00,000 views! It’s absolutely encouraging that over 2,00,000 people have visited this blog and few of them might got solution for their problem, for which they might struggled a bit with strict deadlines. Had started blogging with that simple idea only – A simple blog of a developer, by a developer, for a developer!
Memories of my earlier milestones are still in my mind’s cache — quick links for you!:

Hello Readers,
2011 has been a good and busy year (But frankly It’s good to be busy, in the work which you are passionate about!). In whole year my focus was on learning and exploring new technology — Which is Sitecore and was mostly wrote blog about Sitecore only. You can read them at my Sitecore blog. And due to that there were just 14 new posts.
The WordPress.com stats helper monkeys prepared a 2011 annual report:
Here’s an excerpt:
Madison Square Garden can seat 20,000 people for a concert. This blog was viewed about 66,000 times in 2011. If it were a concert at Madison Square Garden, it would take about 3 sold-out performances for that many people to see it.
Quick facts:
Most visitors came from The United States. India & The United Kingdom were not far behind.
In 2011, there were 14 new posts, growing the total archive of this blog to 139 posts.
Thanks for your support, visits and flying with us in 2011!
We look forward to serving you again in 2012! Happy New Year!
Happy Coding and Happy Reading! 🙂

I remember that I’ve started blogging from December 2007 and till today I’m learning how to write a good blog — yeah agree that each and every day I’ve learnt a lot!
One thing which motivates me a most to keep my blog alive and writing tirelessly, Is people’s comments. When I check the comments people says “Oh man you saved my day”, “Thank you”. Frankly speaking it stimulates a lot. It absorbs all my day’s tiredness and inspires me to write one new blog 🙂 [So, If you like anything — not only on my blog or virtual world. I am talking about all aspects. Then don’t forget to appreciate it!]. Some comments I would like to share with you:

wow…life is truely an enjoyable mystery sometimes(with a few bumps/challenges here and there). I got your link from an email one of our developers sent another programmer. I saw what the conversation was about so I followed the link (I also do some programming). After reading a few of your posts and your comments, I was truely impressed with your spirit. Aside from programming, it was nice to stumble upon your site and to walk away with a few tid-bits of inspiration…code, life. In this world today, we all need to remind each other of gratitude, thankfulness, and yes, happiness. Thank you my friend for letting your heart shine.

World cup is on! and If you are a cricket fan then you must be checking score update for each match frequently while working. I also do so [When India is playing!]. But sometime while coding I need to keep my Visual studio instance open and at the same time I also want to check score, for which I used to do ALT + TAB, between my Visual Studio and Firefox.
I was thinking to have some tool, which seats at corner of my desktop and keep me updated on latest score without doing any ALT + TAB. You also think so? Then CrickoHolic is the software for that.

The stats helper monkeys at WordPress.com mulled over how this blog did in 2010, and here’s a high level summary of its overall blog health:
The Blog-Health-o-Meter™ reads Wow.
Crunchy numbers
About 3 million people visit the Taj Mahal every year. This blog was viewed about 46,000 times in 2010. If it were the Taj Mahal, it would take about 6 days for that many people to see it.
The top referring sites in 2010 were google.co.in, forums.asp.net, google.com, consultingblogs.emc.com, and blogs.msdn.com.
Some visitors came searching, mostly for there is no script engine for file extension .vbs, there was an error while trying to serialize parameter, c multiple inheritance, and svn: can’t create tunnel: the system cannot find the file specified..
Attractions in 2010
These are the posts and pages that got the most views in 2010.
Thanks for flying with kiranpatils.WordPress.com in 2010.

Today we passed an impressive milestone of 1,00,000 blog hits and this not end this is just beginning because I know that you — my blog readers – will keep visiting, reading, and sharing my blog. Thanks to each and every visitor for contributing in to this count so all credit goes to you! — Thank you again! 100000 Blog hits
I remember that I’ve started blogging from December 2007 and till today I’m learning how to write a good blog — yeah agree that each and every day I’ve learnt a lot!
Here’s the Stats Summary which I would like to share with you:
One of my friend Vishwas tried to send message in Skype and at that time he came to know that skype dosen’t supports Unicode Characters — Which is required stuff for sending multilingual message. He asked me to develop something. I was also knowing this and in back of my mind I was thinking to create some application using which skype can support Unicode Characters.
Solution
First, I started looking on web that how can i communicate with Skype using my C# Code and I found[someone truly said : A will will find a way] Skype4COM– “Skype4COM is an ActiveX component that represents the Skype API as objects, with properties, commands, events and notifications. Use Skype4COM in any ActiveX environment, such as Visual Studio or Delphi, and with a standard scripting language, such as Visual Basic, PHP, or Javascript. [Src : http://developer.skype.com/accessories]”
Secondly, I thought to use Google’s Translate feature in my application directly. So, user no need to go to Google Translate page do translation and copy-paste message. Then I found Google-API-for-dot-net
Now, the raw and basic material is ready with me. Now i need to write windows application and some hand crafted code to create my own Skype. But before starting i also thought a lot for name I wanted to give unique name and i found it — “PolyglotSkype” [polyglot — linguist: a person who speaks more than one language].
Finally, I am glad to share this tool with you. Below are few details of it:
Introduction
PolyglotSkype supports unicode characters, using which you can chat with your buddies in any language.
Main features
Unicode support.
Loads all your online skype friends.
In-built Google Translate support — Supports so many languages!.
Screen shots
System requirements
Skype
.NET 3.5 SP1
How to use?
1. Install “PolyglotSkypeInstaller”.
2. Once installed it will create shortcut on your desktop “PolyglotSkype”.
3. Now, to use PolyglotSkype you need to be logged in to Skype.
4. When you run PolyglotSkype application skype will ask you for access. Please select “Allow access”.
5. That’s it! Enjoy 🙂

I want to access my machine from another machine using Remote desktop with the same credentials at both the places. But when i do remote desktop from another machine using “mstsc” and my Machine Name then it gives me new session. But i want my same old session as i have so many programs runing on it and so many files are open. Pls note that i am doing this using Windows Server 2003.
Solution:
I googled it bit. But in the mean time one of my colleague told me to use “mstsc /console” to access the same session. And it’s working :). Then i read a bit and found that in Windows XP it will always give you console mode — means if user is same then same session will be given. While in Windows Server 2003 you have to use “mstsc /console”. Here are the steps:
1. Go to Run(Window + R).
2. type “mstsc /console”. [Without quotes]
3. Which will open Remote Desktop connection dialgobox. Provide computer as your machine name/ip address on which you would like to connect.
4. Provide the credentials[pls note that credentials should be the same means if on A machine X user is logged in then from B machine X user should log in].
5. That’s it!
Happy Remoting! 🙂
