öpnvkarte.de - Frankfurt

Many probably know the situation - you are in a strange city without a car and has to rely on public transport. Then you just want to know quickly, which means of transport (bus, metro, subway, tram), I come now to the best destination. And so begins the problem already.
What is the name of the local operators, as is its website (how good is this one) and where is a map plan for all transportation.

On data from OpenStreetMap offers öpnvkarte.de (really with ö in the URL) a card with exactly this information. And so you do not ever call again for every new zoom into the map must, you can save them as his map sections Permalink.

Really very practical.

In good web design is separated from the data layout. The layout is here Cascading Style Sheets (CSS) adapted about. Areas of an HTML page elements respond to or can order one uses CSS selectors. But how is the fastest way to an HTML element?

This question helps to answer the free tool selector gadget that is currently, and Firefox is available for Safari.
To install you put the link on the homepage gadget selector in the Favorites bar. Then we marked the area in the HTML page, whose layout you want to customize with CSS and replaced by the proper CSS selector.

That works so well that selector gadget has a place in my safe online helpers.

grails_hosting

Grails applications on the Internet to deploy is not so simple. Not everyone has to have a virtual or root server is there a Java application server (like Tomcat or Jetty to run).

Provider for the hosting of PHP applications, there are a dime a dozen. If you want to get hosted Java applications, reduce the number of potential candidates already drastically. If you want to then deploy Grails applications and yet still the best free, you can count the providers that offer this, on one hand.

A list of providers, where you can deploy Grails applications will be maintained in the documentation of Grails.

The three providers that currently offer a free trial or developer account, are:

  • grails_hosting_eatj
  • grails_hosting_javaprovider
  • grails_hosting_morph

During the first two offer a free trial account, there are Morph AppSpace for developers a free Developer account.
My little Grails application grum runs at Morph Apps and it was amazing there to deploy them easily.

Basically you have to choose between a Morph AppSpace PostgreSQL and MySql database. Jetty as an application server is used.
Even with the registry, the database is created and configured Jetty. The only thing we still make itself must, the database configuration in the file DataSources.groovy register and create the Web archive (with grails) was provided by the Java library, or upload to Ant Task Morph Apps. Done.

In the free developer account, but the application must be deployed again for 31 days inside. If not, the application will go offline and after another 31 days, the web space released.

Update:
Morph AppSpace is currently offering free developer account, unfortunately, not anymore. Sun AppSpace is also my little application Grum no longer hosted at Morph. I'm going to the Google App Engine a look. But probably a few small changes might be necessary (eg JPA instead of Hibernate for persistence). When the time comes, I will describe my experience of course, here in my blog.

So be clear now say all. I thought also, but had taken the stones were made of rubber and the goal of reducing rather than stones, a tower - as large as possible.

Sounds simple, but it is not. Anyone who would like to convince themselves of it should be the online game 99 Bricks to stop.
