MultiMonitor Support and Windows Vista, XP

Among my many gripes about Windows Vista (see My Struggles with Windows Vista), is the lack of truly useful window management shortcuts.  Multiple monitor configurations are becoming increasingly common, and the Windows desktop simply hasn’t kept pace.  Sure, if I’m willing to click on numerous UI elements, I can reliably move a maximized window from one monitor to another and resize it to my liking.  My current setup includes a widescreen 22″ LCD and a 19″ LCD that’s rotated for a portrait view (it’s great for editing documents and reading web pages).  Overall, the common task of managing windows on multiple monitors shouldn’t be an ordeal.

Unable to login to plesk 9.0.1 after upgrade from 9.0

SSO (single sign on) is used to provide seamless browsing from one product panel to another without having to relogin everytime. In Plesk 9 SSO is mainly used to provide integration with Parallels Plesk Billing. If you are not using Plesk Billing then you can disable SSO.

No quite sure, you can try to see if it does but if it does not you can set hostname that resolves correctly yourself in SSO preferences:
/usr/local/psa/bin/sso -g ==> to check current settings
/usr/local/psa/bin/sso -s ==> to change settings
/usr/local/psa/bin/sso –help for more info.

Using jQuery with Other Libraries / no conflict

GENERAL

The jQuery library, and virtually all of its plugins are constrained within the jQuery namespace. As a general rule, “global” objects are stored inside the jQuery namespace as well, so you shouldn’t get a clash between jQuery and any other library (like Prototype, MooTools, or YUI).

That said, there is one caveat: By default, jQuery uses “$” as a shortcut for “jQuery”
