"Blueprint Requirements Center lets you precisely author requirements through business process diagrams, hierarchical rich text requirements, use cases, user interface mockups, data definitions, and business rules. Best of all, it ensures that all requirements content fits together to provide a "single version of the truth" - a common reference for everyone on the project."

"Encrypting View State Although MAC encoding helps prevent tampering with view state data, it does not prevent users from viewing the data. You can prevent people from viewing this data in two ways: by transmitting the page over SSL, and by encrypting the view state data. Requiring the page to be sent over SSL can help prevent data-packet sniffing and unauthorized data access by people who are not the intended recipients of the page. However, the user who requested the page can still view the view state data because SSL decrypts the page to display it in the browser. This is fine if you are not concerned about authorized users having access to view state data. However, in some cases, controls might use view state to store information that no users should have access to. For example, the page might contain a data-bound control that stores item identifiers (data keys) in view state. If those identifiers contain sensitive data, such as customer IDs, you should encrypt the view state data in addition to or instead of sending the page over SSL. To encrypt the data, set the page's ViewStateEncryptionMode property to true. If you store information in view state, you can use regular read and write techniques; the page handles all encryption and decryption for you. Encrypting view state data can affect the performance of your application. Therefore, do not use encryption unless you need it. Control State Encryption Controls that use control state can require that view state be encrypted by calling the RegisterRequiresViewStateEncryption method. If any control in the page requires that view state be encrypted, all view state in the page will be encrypted. Per-user View State Encoding If a Web site authenticates users, you can set the ViewStateUserKey property in the Page_Init event handler to associate the page's view state with a specific user. This helps prevent one-click attacks, in which a malicious user creates a valid, pre-filled Web page with view state from a pre

This document describes how you can scale a Sitecore CMS 6.3 solution by configuring multiple instances in one or more environments, such as Content Management (CM) and Content Delivery (CD). After defining requirements and recommendations for Sitecore CMS 6.3 multi-instance solutions, this document provides instructions to configure CM and CD environments, and describes the steps required to configure an example implementation.

Sitecore does not process default URLs such as http://somedomain.com/somefolder/. An ISAPI filter is required. A free, lite version is available here: http://www.helicontech.com/download-isapi_rewrite3.htm. Here's an example of the regular expression required: RewriteLogLevel 9 LogLevel debug RewriteRule ^/(sitecore.*)$ /$1 [L] RewriteRule ^/([^\.\?]+)/?(\?.*)?$ /$1default.aspx$2 [L]

First make sure you read and understand Active Directory Installation Requirements. If you don't comply with all the requirements of that article you will not

Produce Cleaner Code with Aspects: Encapsulate common support behavior, such as exception handling, into classes that can be applied using .NET attributes. Remove Boilerplate Code: Stop duplicating code in and across systems. Build a support framework that your team can leverage across multiple apps. Focus on What Matters: Reduce system knowledge required across your team by factoring complex issues, such as multithreading, into aspects.

" When you design a table in a database and then try to make a change to a table structure that requires the table to be recreated, the Database Management Studio will not allow you to save the changes."

Sometimes it is required to get all Items in the database based on a given template. Iterating through the entire database may be a very expensive operation though. However in this particular case, we can resort to the Link database. Link database is used by Sitecore to resolve all the linking issues - what referrers and what references the Item has. And if an item is based on a template, it also counts as a reference from the item to the template. The solution then is very simple: get all the referrers for a given template item.

EditableGrid is an open source Javascript library aimed at turning HTML tables into advanced editable components. It focuses on simplicity: only a few lines of code are required to get your first table up and running.

You can use the PublishingSpider workflow action to publish the items referenced by the workflow item, including required ancestors of that item.
