    I knew that's true because even I'm from India and a Web developer, I have seen peoples from all levels. It's not a rocket science or something un heard about SQL Injection. That's pretty basic and everyone knows about that. Obviously being a developer one should be knowing it very well :)

        I'm a web developer. I use all the major browsers. Except for Opera. And Safari. And... OK, I only really use IE and Chrome (and Firefox, sparingly).

        I prefer Chrome for web surfing and Firefox for app development and debugging. IE is akin a torrent application for me coming under a blanket embargo.

          I still don't have answer to my question. Anyways, this isn't a fairy tale. Wake up. There are plenty of "developers" out there who have no clue about anything related to development.

            I just thought would share the web page of grivances redressal of a private insurance provider in India (https://www.birlasunlife.com/BirlaSunLife/Insurance/BSLI_MP/Forms/ComplaintForm_id.aspx[^]). 1) First assuming your age is 30, you need to click 30x12 times the left arrow on the datepicker to reach the month of your birth to choose the calendar. 2) The captcha does not refresh. 3) Every dropdown has a serverside autopostback. What do you think of such a webpage? 1) A gesture of management to discourage complaints from customers? 2) Or by a programmer who begs code in Lounge/Soapbox forums and vomits gibberish code accompanied by lack of (stringent) testing/qa because of stingy/greedy management to invest!

            Don't know if I would call it stupid so much a unprofessional. It says that this was done for a mom and pop company. At least they don't have 50 different colors.

              It's a standard datepicker - just click on the calender to open it, click on the year (2013) and hold the "up" arrow down until you get to you birth year. You don't have to scroll the month sideways until you reach the 1980s! :laugh: It's rather fuggly, and it looks like it was put together by the bosses son after his (unsuccessful) first course ion software. And it probably was...

                    as an example, the guy who sits by my side here prefers to block the f5 button when he returns a view from a post instead of using the proper post-redirect-get pattern... and if it was not for entity framework, he would have a BAD time with sql injections...

                    I'm brazilian and english (well, human languages in general) aren't my best skill, so, sorry by my english. (if you want we can speak in C# or VB.Net =p) "Given the chance I'd rather work smart than work hard." - PHS241

                      Entity Framework is for sissy. Just kidding, but it does do a lot of polling which a ADO.Net guy does manually.
