windows installer - HOWTO and best working installation (MSI) chainer +/ bootstrapper -

-

There are several products in our product that customers can establish as separate installation packages (MSI).

We

  1. Show a UI with progress
  2. Allow the user to choose which facilities / packages to install
  3. has the ability to distribute one feature in another (like removing or adding effects)
  4. Support single height (UAC)
  5. Auto updating Good for ability (should not be)
  6. Support command line + silent installation
  7. Package different installations
  8. Increase the error / error for the need for error
  9. Support patch with time and major upgrades

Today, we do all the above work using MSI with nested installation which is poor practice and we face many issues in our solution. / P>

I know there are several bootstraps (M $ generic bootstrap which I think is not good, Burn WIX version that is not mature enough)

Do you know about another Know in That worked and tested already? The best way is (without the integration of MSI in an MSI)

dotNetInstaller looks promising. I was experimenting with it to install Java as a condition. It comes with a GUI editor so you do not need to sort XML to create a project. The Config file is in xml, and the InstallerLinker can be run from the command line. It can be integrated with a build server, although some MSbld work would be good.

asp.net - Javascript/DOM Why is does my form not support submit()? -

This is my first time working with asp.net and javascript, so I do not know very good web resources, or Much about javascript debugging I have to find out that on line oFormObject.submit (); Microsoft JScript Runtime Error: Object does not support this property or method I am using the link to work as a button because I am terrible in aesthetics and I think That link will look more professional than a table of 50 buttons. I have read that this solution can cause problems with browsers due to pre-rendering of my links and many additional traffic and problems, but CSS gives me a button like a link, which has issues of alignment and difference seemed to. & lt ;!

javascript - Classic ASP "ExecuteGlobal" statement acting differently on two servers -

-
I have a strange problem that I really do not know. In addition to developing a new ASP.NET site, I have to support the old "classic ASP" site. It is written in VBScript with a batch of JavaScript functions. Many of the JavaScript functions include 'files' Everything is fine on our production system (which security is controlled by another group - this is a military installation) Debugging them once did not work I). However, I have a fix for a vague bug that needs to be fully tested and some functions do not run under the "local" copy of the website that runs on my PC. For the record, I am running IIS 5.1 on XP. The problem is that some Javascript functions are running "OK" on the production server, but when they use it as a server, they are not defined on my PC what is happening that last Programmer, for some reason, has decided to put some functions in a series of files, which according to the observations, imitate the "need_once
