Target IE6 and IE7 with only 1 extra character in your CSS

#elementId
{
text-align:left; /* all normal browsers */
text-align:center; /* notice the * before the property – understood by IE7 and below */
text-align:center; /* notice the _ before the property – understood by IE6 and below */
}

Fucking sweet ! Take that IE6 and your non understanding of margin: auto !

SharePoint Best Practice – Querystring parameters you should not use in your SharePoint application

When creating the SPContext object SharePoint evaluates the following query string parameters if provided:

•     ContentTypeId
•     Contents
•     FeatureId
•     FolderCTID  
•     ID
•     ListTemplate
•     List
•     Mode
•     RootFolder
•     Type
•     VersionNo
•     View

To ensure that the creation of the SPContext object does not fail your application should ensure that your query string parameters are different from those listed above.

C# tryparse

int id = int.TryParse(”200″, out id) ? id : -1;
