- Internet Explorer and AJAX image caching woes
Here’s the problem: Internet Explorer forgets to look into its own cache when inserting HTML via JavaScript DOM manipulation (read: if you use img tags or any tags with CSS background images, Internet Explorer will always try to redownload these images)

- CookbooXUL
I did a very simple little Ruby On Rails application a while back using the XPFE (Cross Platform Front End). For those people out there with TLA overload the XPFE is what Firefox, Thunderbird, Mozilla and many other products sits upon. It has the XUL (XML UI Language) as well as many other components which make doing clients so rich they make Bill Gates look like a Calcutta leper.

- Ruby Buzz Forum - Reports & Stuff
GRUF: Ruby-based reporting framework. "So, then you write a one off script that grabs the data, does some basic logging, creates a csv file, and stores the csv file somewhere. At first, you hard code everything because, hey, one off script, right? Soon the boss is asking for identical or very similar reports on a regular basis. So, then you try to generalize some things so that you can handle things in a more generic fashion, but it's still clunky. Some degenerate into a big ball of mud as more and more features are requested from the boss. It's not long before you have a dozen scripts in your crontab and you're wishing you had started with some sort of framework."
