• Raman-astix How many people have submitted their application?

  I stayed up at least until 3:00 this morning to make mine presentable. I know at least one other person has submitted and with the two already up that makes 4. The Bonus winners are based on which apps make it all the way through provisioning successfully.  So, the 1st 5 submissions aren't necessarily the winners. We will post the list of winners on Tuesday morning after the Bonus submission round has en ...Show All

• shivali.sadavarte Contest Participant Document

         Hi!!!        I was wondering if it is possible for all participants of “The World’s Best App” contest to have a document that acknowledges that we participated in this event, even if they (or we) did not win one of the prizes.   You know, just a memento or something that we can brag about with, say, our grandchildren or Human Resource Head Hunters.

• Alex114 Question About Rules

  In the rules, it says that the participant should "Have created your contest entry yourself." Does that imply that no use of code written by other people is allowed even if the entry itself is written only by you (i.e. the person who's code you are using doesn't have any affiliation with you or your entry and their code acts only as a way to increase development speed and decrease debugging time) For example, in my projects I often use ...Show All

• murr OnRemoteAppLoaded

  After testing on various computers and not finding any bugs, I submitted my application. I recieved a response saying that the application was just "sitting there" on a particular screen and not advancing.  The person who contacted me refuses to give any detail and won't even tell me if both clients have the same problem.  However from what little description he gave me, it seems as if either Channel_OnRemoteAppLoaded or Channel.Initi ...Show All

• Shilpa_nad Getting more than 250 results

  When I use the MSN API to search for more than 250 results (50 at a time), I am continually given the last 50 results (200-249) over and over again. This error is easily duplicated.  Just search for any common word like "test" and use offest=200 and count=50 (return 50 results, starting at result 200).  You'll be returned 50 results.  Then change the offset=250 and search again.  You'll be returned the same 50 re ...Show All
