RTMP being blocked by firewalls – Flash media server

If you ever worked with Flash media server or any other media server for that matter you probably know they are not working with the regular Internet protocol which is HTTP, all of the media servers (almost all at least) are working on top of a protocol called RTMP.

Now, if you have users working behind a firewall, they probably can't get passed it's restrictions and they will (in most cases) be blocked and unable to see your application / video.

If you are working on a server like WebOrb (I'm working with it) then the data will also be blocked, and that is a bug issue

Here's a way to solve this

How can you give quality service to your clients

As you know, I am a freelancer, and as a freelancer I work face-to-face with my clients and I always have to find better ways to give quality service.

As a freelancer, all of the client's communication and service is up to you, you need to provide them with the best platform to work on, with you, along side with the existing team inside the company (in-case you are working with them).

So, because I believe I have that kind of platform I thought I'd share (as I always do) with you, how I work with my clients, although there are tools and services in this post, it's not about them, it's about how you can use them, seeing the customer's needs in the center of your concerns.

jQuery and UpdatePanels (Asp.Net)

Well, I love using jQuery.

I think this open-source js library is simply the best when you want to create a more rich user experience in your websites and applications.

Some will argue mootools is better but hey, this is a long and exausting battle, almost like the one between PHP and ASP.net

This post comes to explain the difficulties when using jQuery dom event like "click" and "change" with an update panel.
