Series of Tubes

This week it was extremely hot in dhaka, temperature was almost 40c and the humidity was about 75%, it felt like we were in an oven. Our neighbor was however trying to enjoy this heat like they do in western countries u know wear bikinis and hang around, well u can't actually wear bikinis in bangladesh, u can do it inside home,


Sorry for the pic quality, I was taking the pics with my 1.3pixel phone camera, and I couldn't get a good shot as I was hiding behind the curtains.


Former senator Ted Stevens of Alaska made this hilarious comment of the internet as a 'a series of tubes' the video has gone viral. The vid link is shown below.

Problem solving

As the page was being developed in ASP.Net there was a problem in loading the page. However loading other pages like asp did not have any problem. It gave error when the file was saved as an aspx page.









After getting the error, I have checked the page for errors and also checked that the .Net framework was installed properly, as the problem came from either the IIS or the .Net framework as I couldn't find the solution to the problem, I had posted the problem on the ecommerce group message shown below.





Details of the problem posted on the message board can be found here.

Consulted the book and online resources, it was mentioned that the IIS in certain situations is not intialized properly like installing IIS after installing .Net, even though both programs are installed and working properly it was intialized. To configure the IIS to recognize the .Net framework the process to configure the IIS was mentioned in an online forum shown below.

Configuring the IIS







Through the command prompt the aspnet_regiis .exe file will need to be run, the process is shown below.














After the installation the website did not give errors when compiling the asp.net pages.









Server error for dynamic page







Having connected the database to the asp.net page and running it locally gave no problem at all.














Now after posting the files on to the webserver it gave the following error.











I have also posted the problem on the ecommerce groups link is given below.

Website Theme research




Website theme to be used for the clothing store would be a stylish designer store, targeted to specific demographic. Designer clothes which are the top of the list for celebrity's to wear in events are from top fashion designers, top companies.












Versace had a interesting and classic looking themed website which included videos and a lot of flash animation.








Zacposen had a very good home page, it showed the quality of the website the product and where the product is appealing to.




Another brilliant website was by Zuhar Murad, it had the same classic look as the fashion website specifially targeted to celebrity.
