DojoX form validation with custom error messages

I was following this tutorial and got stuck when I wanted to show my custom error messages. I did not want to use the Dijit-based form widgets because I may change the JavaScript framework in future or in other words decoupled HTML form and validation.

Great India Developer Summit 5.0 : Developer’s perspective

Great India Developer Summit was organized this year for the 5th time in a row and undoubtedly, it turned out to be a sheer success. I attended GIDS this year for the first time, so can’t compare much with its previous version, but I found it really very helpful in every aspect important for any software architect. It simply turned into a vast knowledge pool with each & every drop making a significant contribution in spreading this knowledge around.

GIDS 2012, on the same lines as in previous years, consisted of 4 major streams: GIDS .NET, GIDS WEB, GIDS JAVA, GIDS WORKSHOPS. GIDS 2012 was flooded over with more than 140 technical sessions, keynotes and workshops with more than 70 national & international speakers. ‘Venkat Subramaniam’ and ‘Scott Davis’ were two main heroes with maximum sessions by a single speaker and that too houseful. Being a Java & Web developer, I attended all the streams except GIDS .NET and sessions around HTML 5, JavaScript, Java 7 – Java 8, Functional Programming, and Concurrency.

JQuery Cycle Plugin: Sync multiple slideshows on same page

I was working on a website where I wanted to create a slideshow on the homepage, where I have to show
a set of questions and answers coming from left-to-right and right-to-left of the screen, respectively. To add to the
mystry, the question comes first and then the answer comes after a wait of 4 seconds. But both question
and answer should move out of the screen simultaneously, and then the next question comes...and this
continues till the cycle reaches the last slide.
