We are programming a website which use UPS as shipping method. Administrator of the site must approve every order manually, create things propertly with UPS and then just get the tracking number and put it in our system. So we do not use any API from UPS or anything.
Is there a "static" URL like : http://ups.com/apage/{0} we may format to replace the {0} by the tracking number that the administrator will enter in our system?
I know I could search in google, but I'm not realy sure of what to write after UPS URL Tracking number didn't results me anything usefull.
You are required to use the UPS API when interacting with their system to either track packages or manage shipments. Any other use is in violation of their terms of service.
I don't know their terms of service as others have mentioned, but GMail just links to the following when it finds a tracking number in a message. I would assume you could use the same:
http://wwwapps.ups.com/WebTracking/processInputRequest?TypeOfInquiryNumber=T&InquiryNumber1=TRACKINGNUMBER
I'm sure this could end up changing at some point down the road.

I have an asp.net application which was initially designed for support only in IE(Internet Explorer). Now i want to convert that application which will support all the latest browser,
Basically it was developed Asp.net, CSS and Javascript(Specific for IE).Is there any easy way to convert because I have only 1 week time to Submit if i failed then i need to report whether it is possible or not?
Here's the quick answer - it will probably take you longer than a week :)
The best thing to do is view your website in different browsers and see what the problems are. You have been a bit vague in your question, but you could be looking at having to fix UI issues and possbily JavaScript problems.
Which version of IE are you supporting? You need to take this into account since developing for cross browser support means not only fixing problems for modern browsers, but making sure that older browsers are not broken.
This is a very open-ended question, and the best suggestion I have is the above. There is no way to convert an application to magically be cross-browser compatible. It's going to be a manual job unfortunately.
Most importantly, you need to to measure how bad things are in other browsers before you can get a plan together of what it will take to fix.

This is probably not possible, but I would like to create an interactive floor map where the offices are static but the person name keeps changing. The information must come from Active Directory, and the map must be displayed on SharePoint.
Is this possible? What do you suggest the best approach to solve the problem?
Do we need to develop a full SharePoint webpart? Is there something in the market?
Any input is truly welcomed.
Thanks You.
I've seen something similar with reporting services before but not using active directory as a data source, if you can dump AD to a database or access it similarly reporting services wouldn't be a terrible option. You would just set a jpg of a blank map as a background and place a 'table' with values on each individual desk/office, it was quite time consuming but it ended up working fairly well. And I'm sure MS has some sort of integration between reporting services and sharepoint.

I want to allow end users of my website to generate image of google map. How is this possible after the User has selected its location on google map and can then generate the image.
It's not allowed. See here:
https://developers.google.com/maps/faq#tos_screenshots
Use of Google Maps imagery in printed materials and offline media is
subject to the Permission Guidelines published at:
http://www.google.com/permissions/geoguidelines.html
you can request permission, but I don't think it's easy to obtain, unless you are a paying business customer.
Besides the "not allowed" part, there might be a way to let your users download the Google Map screen. However this will take some programming. Here is the basic idea:
When the users interact with the Google Map on your page, you can keep track of the used zoom and map boundaries as well as the selected location. With these values, you can use the Google Static Maps API to let your users download a static image.

for example , if I wanted to set the Index value from this page:
http://ca.finance.yahoo.com/q;_ylt=Agfc5O8HHTlOLgX.q6V4HEtyzJpG;_ylu=X3oDMTFkdnZqMHBkBHBvcwMyBHNlYwN5ZmlNYXJrZXRTdW1tYXJ5RnJvbnRwYWdlBHNsawNzcHRzeA--?s=^GSPTSE
to a variable, how can I do that??
I am VERY NEW to programming, I would really appreciate if you explained every line.
My point isnt to get it done, I want to understand it.
Thank you very much in advance!
If you look at the source code of the web page, you find that the index number is within a span tag which has a unique id: <span id="yfs_l10_^gsptse">13,702.33</span>.
This means that you can scrape the page and then single out that individual tag.
You need to start by connecting to the host and downloading the page. The way in which you do this depends on which language you're using. There are plenty of tutorials around - just search for "[language] web scraping".
Then you need to create a Document Object Model from the html source code - again, this depends on the language, it's easy in some and difficult in others. Once you've done that, simply search for the tag with an id of yfs_l10_^gsptse and grab the content.
Hope that helps - obviously there's a lot I haven't said, but it depends what language you want to use.

can someone give a sample implementation of 3d secure for an ecommerce application?
Implementation depends on payment gateway providers. you will have to contact their support or check their manual for it.
I have worked with "The Logic Group" and BT payment gateway providers in UK so if you are using one of these then let me know I can be of some help.
You didnt give a lot of information in your question. Your options depend on what you're attempting to acheive.
Your options are either
You're integrating with a payment service provider. Most will offer 3d secure processing, ask them for help.
You're rolling your own 3d secure service. In this case you will need to either purchase or develop an MPI (Merchant Plug-In) that passes the 3dsecure messages to Visa and MasterCard. In this case your best option is to purchase an MPI from a 3rd party vendor, otherwise be prepared for a lengthy and costly integration directly with Visa and MasterCard.
