is XML going to leave us? JSON is next?

SON (JavaScript Object Notation) is a lightweight data-interchange format. It is easy for humans to read and write. It is easy for machines to parse and generate. It is based on a subset of the JavaScript Programming Language, Standard ECMA-262 3rd Edition - December 1999. JSON is a text format that is completely language independent but uses conventions that are familiar to programmers of the C-family of languages, including C, C++, C#, Java, JavaScript, Perl, Python, and many others. These properties make JSON an ideal data-interchange language.

JSON is built on two structures:

* A collection of name/value pairs. In various languages, this is realized as an object, record, struct, dictionary, hash table, keyed list, or associative array.
* An ordered list of values. In most languages, this is realized as an array, vector, list, or sequence.


here is a link to example JSON in Lotus Notes:

I will think about weak sides of every technology and will write later.

Enjoy

$V2AttachmentOptions

We can hide attachments using $V2AttachmentOptions field with Computed for Display type

What I usually do is set its value using the next formula:
@If(@IsDocBeingEdited; "1"; "0")

It will help to hide/show attachments in form.

p.s. dont forget about Computed for display

crooser on openntf

I downloaded my crosser, which I did one year ago, to openntf (the biggest freeware lotus notes' portal in the world). I did it because I want to know what people think about it :) . maybe they will give me a push to next step. I wanted to do it from Summer 2007, but always forgot about it. Now the problem is solved.

will wait for any responces.

ooops, here is a link to my project on openntf

5 point of my private life

I have been agitated by Michael :) So I must to write it...

1. I hated to write compositions. Every time when I should to write it, I asked somebody to help me.
2. When I was young I dreamed about sport's quarry but father changed my mid :).
3. I like play in computer games, this is like drugs for me, Of course I try to control myself, but sometime it's impossible.
4. At this point of my life I want to be in science. Really, this is only one job which I respect.
5. But main point in life is family... I want wife, many children, at least 3, many good friends...
