Internet Explorer 8

IE 8 truncated my Silverlight splash screen, which I’ve now changed. Life is full of surprises.

Hello World!

Welcome to a new place on the net for programmers. Your host has been building a website in Silverlight lately.

Lots of websites have sample source code. How many allow you to run the code directly on the page, while you monitor the code in a debugger that lives on the same page?

Call me eccentric, but I like setting breakpoints, examining variables, stepping into, over, and out of methods, running to the next breakpoint or until I pause the program, walking the stack, and so on. I also want to have some control over the speed of a program’s execution. All while the code is performing some visible task.

Curious? Try out the new NevLab Theater for some wacky algorithm demos. It is also a place to experience odd bugs or incompatibilities that I find. The site is new, and there’s not much content yet, but more is on the way.

Stay tuned…
