Few days back we wrote about twitter API and server time (click here). Again same thing made me confused. By mistake i had set my itouch’s time few hours back then a real time. And i was not able to login into any of my twitter app. All the time it prompts, “incorrect username and password”. So check ur device time if u ever face same issue.

So after finding this issue i tried same thing on my samsung corby pro.. It also has a native twitter app.. And result shocked me.. Even though i had set my mobiles time few to days back.. Still it was working fine.. So there must be something wrong with the approach, soon i ll dig into same and update you guys.

Well optional argument is essential feature when it comes to re usability of your code. But its not given in js as simple as its given in PHP & other languages. But with some simple trick you can also achieve the same.

For e.g.

function calCulate(val1, val2, operator){
if(!operator){
operator = 'plus';
}

switch(operator){
case 'plus':
return val1 + val2;
break;

case 'minus':
return val1 - val2;
break;
}

}

alert(calCulate(1,2));

alert(calCulate(2,1,'minus'));

this is it and now you have optional argument in your Javascript code

Many of us face this strange issue while working on cakephp framework… Me to faced it many times so thought of sharing the solution with you all, even I have got this solution from some other blog few months back.  

So what exactly happens
When we include JS using 
$javaScript->link(‘js_file.js’);

And we get error as 

JsController not found 

Basically when you link your javascript and if your cakephp engine aint find specified file in folder 

/webroot/js/

it throws this error. So always check the existence of file in folder first for this error.

i am sure this is fake, but really nice video
