Perficient recently worked with the International AIDS Vaccine Initiative (IAVI) to re-launch its comprehensive HIV progress information hub, IAVI.org. The result of this pairing is a sustainable, scalable website that is already increasing community engagement and raising awareness for AIDS vaccine research and development. Here is an excerpt from the case study describing the solution: […]

3D web environments are still in their infancy.  In fact the HTML 5 canvas element does not have a 3d context and the most popular way to run 3D graphics in a web browser, WebGL, is not yet considered a web standard.  WebGL is still very new. It originated as an HTML Canvas 3D extension […]

I was recently working on some code that added items to a SharePoint list based on a user’s input from an InfoPath form. It was an easy task until I got to a choice column. I wasn’t sure of the syntax for setting the value of a choice column, and for some reason, all of […]

Since Apps are the “next big thing” for SharePoint, from an opportunity perspective, expect to see a lot of hullaballoo about how you should create apps because they’re going to be the greatest thing to happen to SharePoint since Shared Service Applications replaced the Shared Services Provider.  However, not all apps are created equal, and […]

Until recently, I was blissfully unaware of an issue that exists when deploying SharePoint 2013 apps in a likely production environment.  That issue is the use of host headers while serving a SharePoint app.  Since I don’t know of any production environment that doesn’t use a host header, this could be quite the issue and […]

I was recently asked to develop a PIN Pad for an ASP.NET MVC3 mobile web application for users to use to log into the application.  I had to use the PIN Pad in three locations in the application: 1) register the PIN for a new user, 2) confirming the PIN registration, and 3) logging in […]

by Taylor Rhyne I’m excited to share that today Perficient announced the re-launch of a comprehensive HIV progress information hub for the International AIDS Vaccine Initiative (IAVI) at Iavi.org. From the press release, which can be read here. The new IAVI.org communicates the not-for-profit organization’s mission to ensure the development of safe, effective, accessible, preventive HIV […]

Microsoft made a big splash with the unveiling of their long-awaited Surface Tablet yesterday.  Never mind the interesting choice of branding (anyone familiar with the previous Microsoft Surface will be surprised they took the name from the world’s coolest cocktail table and applied it to a slate), the big question in our secret mountaintop command […]

These days, many people are using SharePoint anonymously or creating mash-ups of data from various SharePoint sources.  As a result, these various resources have differing permissions governing their visibility.  For example, the Managed Metadata Term Store cannot be accessed anonymously.  Indeed, the most likely occurrence, and where I discovered this problem, is when you want […]

Situation You’ve created your custom elements in SharePoint and everything is flowing along smoothly until you add an out-of-the-box SharePoint web part to a page.  When you try to edit this web part, you get a non-helpful error message that cryptically states that “A Web Part you attempted to change is either invalid or has […]
