Form fields are designed to collect information from visitors of a certain page. But despite the best efforts and explanations, getting the correct information from an average user can be difficult. Impatient or careless visitors may miss important fields, only partially fill one or several fields, or simply press the wrong keys. After filling the form this way they click "Send" button. The server program receives a set of data and if data validation is not implemented on the server side, the server program has no idea what to do with it.

A professional web page requires data validation, i.e. a method for detecting errors in the input data, or even better - a way to avoid mistakes in the first place. Over the years, web developers have been doing this using JavaScript procedures of their own design or through professional JavaScript libraries. To be honest, these approaches gave excellent results.

Unless you continually monitor page weight, you won’t know how your diet is progressing. The average page now exceeds 1.7Mb and increased by 32% in 2013 alone. If your developers are secretly gorging themselves on fattening widgets, any of the following assessment tools will highlight their gluttony. They’re all free and take a few seconds to run — what are you weighting for…

The White Balance setting you choose will change the colour balance in your pictures, making it warmer or cooler depending on how the sort of light you’re shooting in affects things.

Using Auto White Balance is the simple option, but your camera’s White Balance presets give you more control over colour.

In this tutorial we’ll explain exactly how these work and how to fine-tune your white balance settings to ensure the most accurate colours possible.

Topic of today’s post stays a bit aside from day-to-day coding and development but nonetheless covers a very important subject: our application log files. Our apps do generate enormous amount of logs which if done right are extremely handy for problems troubleshooting.

It’s not a big deal if you have a single application up and running, but nowadays apps, particularity webapps, run on hundreds of servers. With such a scale figuring out where is a problem becomes a challenge. Wouldn’t it be nice to have some kind of a view which aggregates all logs from all our running applications into single dashboard so we could see a whole picture constructed from the pieces? Please welcome: Logstash, the logs aggregation framework.

Although it’s not the only solution available, I found Logstash to be very easy to use and extremely simple to integrate. To start with, we don’t even need to do anything on the application side, Logstash can do all the job for us.
