Active Directory: Research

Research into .Net's DirectoryServices namespace and its interaction with ADSI - Active Directory Service Interface. Read up through Safari O'Reilly account (seems to be expired now, I cannot access the full chapter). Recommend this book: The .NET Developer's Guide to Directory Services Programming by Joe Kaplan; Ryan Dunn Begin development of the AD connector that abstracts and return a USER object from AD. This will allow the User object to eventually bind to either an AD or SQL backend.

Javascript: Replacing OnLoad attribute in Body tag

//This section runs the SetPage function when the form loads - replaces OnLoad function in body tag
addLoadEvent(SetPage);
function addLoadEvent(func) {   
   var oldonload = window.onload;   
   if (typeof window.onload != 'function') {   
     window.onload = func;   
   } else {   
     window.onload = function() {   
       oldonload();   
       func();   
     }   
  }   
}

//Another example will run when page load but code doesn't utilize onLoad attribute in body tag
var frm = document.frmCreateModifyPosition;
window.onload = function(){
if (frm.txtAction[1].checked){
ShowPositionID()
}
}

ALTER TABLE doc_exc ADD column_b VARCHAR(20) NULL CONSTRAINT exb_unique UNIQUE
ALTER TABLE doc_exd WITH NOCHECK ADD CONSTRAINT exd_check CHECK (column_a > 1)

REGEX; pattern matching

regular expression to match a U.S. phone number:
\(?\d{3}\)? ?\d{3}[-.]\d{4}

This regex matches phone numbers like "(314)555-4000". 
Ask yourself if the regex would match "314-555-4000" or "555-4000". 
The answer is no in both cases. Writing this pattern on one line 
conceals both flaws and design decisions. The area code is 
required and the regex fails to account for a separator 
between the area code and prefix.

/  
    \(?     # optional parentheses
      \d{3} # area code required
    \)?     # optional parentheses
    [-\s.]? # separator is either a dash, a space, or a period.
      \d{3} # 3-digit prefix
    [-.]    # another separator
      \d{4} # 4-digit line number
/x
