Kommissionen sår tvivl om Microsofts oprigtighed

Advarer mod skødesløs OOXML-behandling

Sander: Vi har flyttet Microsoft

Det er ikke mindst pres fra blandt andet den danske regering, der nu har fået Microsoft til at åbne for kodeposen, mener videnskabsminister Helge Sander.

Hvis det er sandt, så er det godt arbejde.

Eksperter: Microsoft bør lære af Linux-sikkerhed

Apache Tomcat is a very common application server in java-based solutions and it is able to run on every platform supported by Sun Java. But which platform delivers most performance and stability; Microsoft Windows or Linux. According to this performance study part 2, Linux significantly outperforms Microsoft Windows.

Executive summary ;)

vtiger CRM Webservices: Create New Leads Using PHP-SOAP

March 25, 2007 at 19:00 · Tags: , ,

The vtiger CRM has a number of Webservices that can be accessed through SOAP. The original examples from vtiger for accessing the services are implemented using NuSOAP. Here I have created an example using the built-in PHP SOAP implementation.


< ?php
$client = new SoapClient(
"http://crm.vtigersite.com/vtigerservice.php?service=webforms&wsdl",
array(
"location" => "http://crm.vtigersite.com/vtigerservice.php?service=webforms",
"compression" => SOAP_COMPRESSION_ACCEPT | SOAP_COMPRESSION_GZIP,
"login" => "admin", // default
"password" => "admin" // default
));

$params = array();
$params["lastname"] = "lastnamea";
$params["email"] = "email@email.com";
$params["phone"] = "phone";
$params["company"] = "company";
$params["country"] = "country";
$params["description"] = "description";

// user id to assign the lead in vtiger
$params["assigned_user_id"] = 1;

$result = $client->__soapCall("create_lead_from_webform", $params);
echo $result;
?>

Gratis webservice med danske adresser

February 19, 2007 at 13:32 · Tags: , ,

Som et led i den offentlige service i Danmark har Kort & Matrikelstyrelsen (KMS) og Erhvervs- og Byggestyrelsen (EBST) startet et projekt kaldet Adresse Web Service, som er en gratis prototype af en webservice til at finde og validere danske adresser. Desuden indeholder webservices longitude og latitude pÃ¥ alle adresserne – ogsÃ¥ kaldet geocoding. Dette er super fedt…og med lidt snilde kan det helt sikkert spille sammen med Google Maps eller Yahoo Maps.
