The dilemma of Body field: I know it's wrong, but I'm still using it.

One thing that makes me really annoyed about Eclipse based Notes client is the CTRL-TAB key issue. Design team has lifted this key combination as Lotus Notes moved into Eclipse in the R8.
Too many abbreviations :)
This is probably given before, but I have received a question last week and it would be useful sharing this.
When you run a server-side code at your XPage, your operation may be successful or failed. A newbie developer asked me how to acknowledge the user about the result, like MessageBox functionality in Lotusscript.
Today was a spare day between project engagements...
So I decided to deal with the LUGTR web site, especially Quickr issues of the site. There were a problem with notifications. There wasn't notifications in fact! Empty bodies... Later, I figured out that in qpconfig.xml file, the template location has been defined with "\" instead of "/". Since it is working on SUSE Linux, the engine could not find the templates.
That was easy. I tested some notifications and saw that these will not be useful at all. There are some deficiencies in notification engine of Lotus Quickr for Domino.
I am blogging an interesting finding now :)
I have posted part-1 and part-2 for the customization of Lotus Quickr for Domino 8.5.1 so far.
I recently downgraded my domino server from 8.5.2 to 8.5.1 to be able to run Lotus Quickr 8.5.1 which requires older version. This is another issue of 'Dear IBM, please...'
After downgrade, an XPage application failed in some dojo elements like calendar fields. Specifically, I first discovered the problem with missing calendar icon in date picker object.
While all are chatting around Lotusphere 2011, I am working for the community :)
Here is a simple CAPTCHA test for XPages...
I like blogging such stories about strange incidents in customers :) I hope it helps my newbie readers to learn how to troubleshoot these kind of problems.
Using Lotus Symphony 3.0?
When you install Lotus Symphony 3.0 on your computer, there will be an odd situation. There is Lotus Symphony 3.0 installed, but 1.3 inside your Notes client.
If you want to upgrade embedded Symphony 1.3 and use version 3.0 inside your Notes client, you have to use a seperate installation for Symphony. This is called IBM Lotus Symphony 3.0 Add on Pack .
Out of Office agent means problem for an average system administrator. Many users complaint their agent does not work properly. Sometimes, they simply don't wait to get response, or don't know they will receive only one response for each sender. However, in some cases the issue is related with the configuration of server, database or ACL.
IBM Lotus support released this useful tool to troubleshoot some basic issues. It also provides a couple of utility to fix multiple database ACL settings or configuration.
As warned on the technote, be careful to run the utility...
