Revicse the scriptable interface for
<model>(bug 307093)Make it possible to open the JavaScript Console directly from the “XForms Error” dialog (bug 309246)
Possibly support setting the
SOAPActionHTTP header, so we can use Web Services directly from XForms. Problem is that it’s not in the 1.0 spec. (bug 309442)
Update : Forgot the bug number for the SOAPAction bug. It’s bug 309442.
XForms Buddy now installs and works for Firefox 1.5 beta 1.
I removed closing of XForms Buddy on document unload, as it did not work with Firefox 1.5, and I’m too lazy to figure out why.
The trip started well, with delayed flights both out of Copenhagen and Chicago, and my luggage only getting as far as Chicago. Say joy! And now a very angry lady named Katrina has put a stop to my week of vacation in New Orleans. And to New Orleans and a lot of the south coast in general. It looks really really bad :(
So I’ve stayed in Austin, and have instead been working at the IBM offices there. But as two of my friends suggested. “You’re in Texas, go to a ranch!”. So I will :) Four days of “ranch vacation” coming up tomorrow. I think that’ll be great fun…. and incredible hot and humid for a Dane…
Next week I’ll try to get to Raleigh, NC for the XForms f2f meeting. But let’s see if the planes will have jet fuel at that time. The refineries and fuel lines at the south coast were also hit by the hurricane, so the major airports might run out of jet fuel next week.
Ok, there’s one plus until now (except for the friendly team at IBM of course :) ), which is the car Hertz gave me: a Ford Mustang 2005 — I love the new styling on the 2005 model! Only problem is that gas prices are going up at an incredible rate right now…
