This post shows, how it works and why it works. The problem JSONP is JSON with Padding. Padding usually means: providing the name of callback method which waits to receive the payload. As a JSONP request runs in its own SCRIPT statement, using a closure or anonymous function reference doesn't work with a naive approach and most use a temporarely available global method which is supplied in the SCRIPT-url. window.jsonpHandler.functionA = function ( dataSet ) { } ... <SCRIPT src="http://hostname/jsonphandler?data=1&jsonp=jsonpHandler.functionA"...

Our timing is adjusted to the fact, that provided demo licenses from the previous release are due to terminate in a few days. If you are hestitant to perform the upgrade (either by downloading the ZIP or through svn support), then download the ZIP and grab just the license file itself. You'll miss out some great new features - so don't blame us then. En detail: JSONP & imgSetWhen using a jsonp approach, usually a callback method name is supplied within the JSONP request itself. That makes cacheing for browser and proxy systems very hard or memory intensive. We included a new alternative to JSONP, where cacheing is supported and use of JSONP is much simpler. Use the JSONP brokering service of library, provided within the bootloader framework pbxSL to use an easy an generic approach to JSONP. imgSetTThis handler uses parallel threads to process...

This includes a growing significance for Digital Asset Management (DAM) solutions for overall enterprise content management scenarios. The research also points out, that smaller vendors (as opposed to industry heavyweights like Oracle, OpenText or EMC) are more aggressive in the implementation of features that leverage DAM effects throughout the enterprise. Especially with the significance of multi-channel marketing execution now challenged by an intense expansion of channels, companies should apply flexibility and agility with their DAM strategies. Integration with existing frameworks and content management solutions are considered...

Pixelbloxx ska Intermedia Fotofoficient Copyright © 2011 ska 2011-04-20T10:50:04Z http://blog.pixelboxx.com/ska/stories/237/ The New York Times has an interesting piece about retailers advance into mobile ecommerce. The craze on how mobile devices will change our lifes, especially in the online world, has raised the expectations on all sides. But to be fair: just because a new generation of online devices has arrived (with a broad availability), it doesn't mean everything's now golden. As mobile experiences change the paradigms of "going online" (or being constantly online), there's also need for a paradigm shift in providing food for these new experiences. I think it's not just about reaching the shiny new look and wooshy interaction experience, mobile gadgets already have. There's definitely a lot to be designed in making online shopping... Pixelbloxx ska Intermedia Fotofoficient Copyright © 2011 ska 2011-04-20T09:22:32Z http://blog.pixelboxx.com/ska/stories/236/ Summary: New Feature: A persistent metadata cache see doc/configuration/intermedia.properties: intermedia.metadatacache.type Bugfixes: A xss vulnerability has beend removed within modules/pixelboxx/intermedia.js as well as within the Helma JSON module The handling of invalid imageids in imageProperties was added, which could also lead to XSS vulnerabilities, see Root/macros.js Special thanks to Marcus Niemitz (mail@mniemietz.de) for finding this nasty one. Changes: A helper shell-script was added to apps/im/ (import_examples.sh) which makes it easy to import directories from our svn repository. This approach lets you import stable code from within the official distribution while also maintaining your project specific code, while diffing against the release. En Detail: The former metadata cache was in-memory only. That was a very fast approach, but also prone to a slow rebuild phase when the application is freshly started. Our current metadata cache...

An interesting stat is the distribution of various content types. Interestingly enough, an average web page consists of 60% images, 4.5% HTML, 11.3 % Flash, 16% Javascript and 3.6% Stylesheets.
