RouteDebugger and 404 MVC JSON requests

I got this really strange bug where I got a 404 error on all requests I made via Ajax to methods that returned Json via MVC. Turned out that this was caused by RouteDebug that I had laying around in my bin folder. I have got this bug twice now so I just wanted to

Custom Action Result does not run ExecuteResult and just returns ToString

All of a sudden all of my RSS feeds stopped working on AlternativeTo. All I got was the name of the type I returned from my MVC methods that should return a “RssResult”. After some Googling, I finally found the answer on Stack Overflow as usual. The problem was that I used version; MVC 2

Automatically switch spell check language/dictionary as you type in Firefox

I have been looking for a plugin like this for ages. I constantly switch between Swedish and English when I work and it’s a pain to always remember to switch the spell check to the correct language.

Get the Dark Theme for the editor but not for the rest of the UI in Visual Studio

I just downloaded the shiny new Visual Studio 11 BETA and haven’t had so much time to use it yet. But one thing I was curious about was the new built-in dark theme they provided. I liked the Dark Theme for the code editing windows but not so much for the rest of the UI. I solved

I recently decided to try out my friend Sajals new CDN service over at Turbobytes. While setting this up he pointed out some issues I had with my custom origin domain that I run on IIS. IIS has some problems that many CDN doesn’t like. The “Via” Header To begin with, many CDNs send a “Via” header
