Are there any plugins for Google Chrome to make REST calls?
Like the Poster plugin for firefox.
I have tried chrome-poster, but it seems it still is on early development

You should also give a try to Postman REST Client (Packaged App), which is a fork from Simple REST Client. (There is also a lite version that runs in an ordinary Chrome tab and will suggest upgrading to the Packaged App version).
This extension is also open sourced on github.
Here is a short of its features:
Compact layout
HTTP requests with file upload support
Formatted API responses for JSON and XML
HATEOS support
Image previews
Request history
Basic Auth and OAuth 1.0 helpers
Autocomplete for URL and header values
Key/value editors for adding parameters or header values. Works for URL parameters too.
Use environment variables to easily shift between settings. Great for testing production, staging or local setups.
Keyboard shortcuts to maximize your productivity

Did you try this extension: REST Console?

You should try: cREST Client.

I would wholeheartedly recommend Advanced Rest Client:
https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/hgmloofddffdnphfgcellkdfbfbjeloo
It was the only one that made POSTing form content really easy.

And here is one more: DHC by Restlet
I tried a lot of them and this is the best one I've used so far.

I used this DHC by Restlet. We can pass the session values as well as param in very well manner.

I this extension: Simple REST Client.

I and my friend want to create a website. We're using Vs code. How we can work on the same code in vs code? I'm looking for something that lets me edit on the code at any time I want and the same thing for him.
Use GitHub
GitHub is a development platform inspired by the way you work. From open source to business, you can host and review code, manage projects, and build software alongside 50 million developers.
Github is a web-based platform used for version control. Git simplifies the process of working with other people and makes it easy to collaborate on projects. Team members can work on files and easily merge their changes.
You should definitely make your account on github as a developer as it helps alot.
Check it out here: https://github.com
You can use https://github.com/. Once you are done doing your code you have to upload it on github. Same as your friend can do. And the important thing is you can see/undo your previous code if you do anything wrong.
This is an opinionated question and answer, but since you are using VsCode, I would recommend Microsoft's Live Share . Since Microsoft is the creator of VsCode, I would guess this is going to be your best option to stay within the editor.
Visual Studio Live Share enables you to collaboratively edit and debug with others in real time, regardless what programming languages you're using or app types you're building. It allows you to instantly (and securely) share your current project, and then as needed, share debugging sessions, terminal instances, localhost web apps, voice calls, and more! Developers that join your sessions receive all of their editor context from your environment (e.g. language services, debugging), which ensures they can start productively collaborating immediately, without needing to clone any repos or install any SDKs.
Additionally, unlike traditional pair programming, Visual Studio Live Share allows developers to work together, while retaining their personal editor preferences (e.g. theme, keybindings), as well as having their own cursor. This allows you to seamlessly transition between following one another, and being able to explore ideas/tasks on your own. In practice, this ability to work together and independently provides a collaboration experience that is potentially more natural for many common use cases.
Well, I would recommend GitHub, is a great tool. If you like to learn from video, I would recommend this video. Or read this article.
The best way is live share
Live Share is an extension for VS Code that enables real-time collaboration between developers. It gives users the ability to share a session with someone else, allowing them to edit code as well as share a sever and debugging session

Currently I'm working on penetration testing particularly SQL Injection, for that I'm using OWASP ZAP tool, after configuration I can able to trace my web application into that ZAP tool, but the thing is I can't able to trace my web application that I'm running in my IE8. Actually in manual clearly they mentioned it will support for IE8, but I can't. Please provide me some suggestions regarding this.
Thanks in advance.

Yes, ZAP will support IE8 - I've tested it myself.
I'm assuming that you have configured ZAP as IE8's proxy as per: http://code.google.com/p/zaproxy/wiki/HelpStartProxies
Is you target app on the same machine? IE can be a pain when talking to local apps and will often ignore the proxy settings.
If so make sure 'Bypass proxy server for local addresses' is unchecked.
Whether you are targetting a local app or not make sure that the target host name is not in the IE8 Proxy Settings 'Exceptions' list - in IE8 / Internet Options / 'Local Area Network (LAN) Settings' dialog click on the 'Advanced' button.
If the target host is in the Exceptions list then remove it.
Hopefully that will do the trick.
This is likely to be an 'IE' issue rather than a ZAP one. If you configure IE to use ZAP and nothing appears in ZAP then close ZAP and keep trying to use IE. If it carries on working then it is ignoring the proxy settings :)
Let me know if this works or not.

PS we also have a user group, which you may well get faster answers on ;)

Anyone here develops on DAY CQ? Can advise what is the forum or community to seek for help?
I tried to sign up to their google groups but am not able to do so
Day CQ is a Web Content Management platform based on Java and the JCR specification. Contrary to BoltClock, I would still recommend searching for Day CQ as Adobe does not seem to have really re-branded the Day products.
First I would try searching Day's Documentation at http://docs.day.com. Dacare is Day's hub for all of their support and such at http://www.day.com/content/daycare.html, you can find links to support groups, documentation, downloads and etcetera from there.
Google Groups is the right forum: https://groups.google.com/group/day-communique
Day developer web site: http://dev.day.com/content/ddc.html
Actually there is a forum to the one you can go to, it's located under:
http://forums.adobe.com/community/digital_marketing_suite/cq5
So take a look around a see if this helps.
I think the google groups is the most useful, the yahoo one constantly has spam..
Google Groups - day-communique
Yahoo Groups - day-communique
Other useful stuff...
Current Widgets API -(dev.day.com/docs/en/cq/current/widgets-api/index.html)
- used when adding widgets to your dialogs (I don't have enough rep to post as link)
The forums for developers working with CQ5 are rather scattered about. I have bookmarked this one: http://tech.groups.yahoo.com/group/jcr-crx/, which has seen 22 postings since the first of the year.
There is also a much more forum for users of the open source Apache Jackrabbit, which underlies CQ5's repository: http://blog.gmane.org/gmane.comp.apache.jackrabbit.user.
As Atigar says the Adobe CQ5 users forum is at http://forums.adobe.com/community/digital_marketing_suite/cq5
CQ5 is based on three Apache Software Foundation projects:
http://felix.apache.org/ - the Apache Felix OSGi framework. In general, you don't need to know much about it to develop with CQ5.
http://jackrabbit.apache.org/ - the Apache Jackrabbit JCR content repository, the CRX content repository that CQ5 runs on uses the same core code, with some extensions.
http://sling.apache.org/ - the Apache Sling web framework which CQ5 uses to process HTTP requests, including mapping them to scripts or servlets. Understanding the Sling way of doing things helps a lot in understanding CQ.
These 3 projects all have user mailing lists as well.
There is a LinkedIn group for enterprise users of CQ/AEM as well. See the link:

I want to develop an iphone application that needs an english word dictionary. Can you people suggest me any link from where i can have that database containing a reasonable number of english words with their meanings and example sentence.
Thanks in advance
Update
I recently found out about a much more useful API than wiktionary. It seems google has a "Google Dictionary" that you can use, though it's an unofficial API. Using this query:
http://www.google.com/dictionary/json?callback=dict_api.callbacks.id100&q={query}&sl=en&tl=en&restrict=pr%2Cde&client=te
You can get a JSON result from google dictionary. Substitute your keyword for {query} (eg q=dog). Apparently this is the dictionary that google docs uses, and possibly some chrome extensions.
Source: Google Operating System (blog)
PS: The comments also mention an API for Dictionary.com.
Previous response
You could access Wikitionary's data via Mediawiki's API. That might be enough for what you need. I don't know of any pre-made dictionaries you could use. If you need spell checking, you might be able to get Aspell working on iPhone.
Links:
Default page for wikionary's api, with a 'quick reference'
Mediawiki's API documentation
There may also be wrappers for the API already created in the language you need. Some are listed on this page.
If that doesn't do it for you, you could try scraping one of the other dictionary websites too.
Edit
I'd probably only try this as a last resort because (as far as I know) you can't get any easily usable results from querying wikitionary. You can get the wiki code for an entry, though. The problem with that is that you'll then have to somehow extract the important information from that code.
For example, take the following query (click to open in your browser):
http://en.wiktionary.org/w/api.php?action=query&titles=dog&prop=revisions&rvprop=content&format=xml
If you read the documentation, you'll see the parts here are action=query, titles=dog, prop=revisions, rvprop=content, and format=xml. These tell the api what you want. It says "I'm performing a query for the entry with title 'dog' and I want the content of the latest revision in xml format".
What you get is:
<api>
<query>
<pages>
<page pageid="24" ns="0" title="dog">
<revisions>
<rev xml:space="preserve">
{{also|DOG|dög}}
==English==
{{wikipedia}}
[[Image:YellowLabradorLooking.jpg|thumb|A dog (a [[Labrador]])]]
... (removed for brevity)
</rev>
</revisions>
</page>
</pages>
</query>
</api>
You'll have to process that somehow.
Anyway, you can create the http request strings yourself, or you can use a wrapper for the api that does the "hard" work of making queries.
I you're looking for an offline paid option, you might want to have a look at lexicontext (full disclosure: it's mine)

Best examples of CRUD Web Form Design [closed]

I am looking to revamp our CRUD web forms and would appreciate any examples of good UI design.
We have lots of database tables that have minimal editing needs by the user - Country Codes, Tax codes, Product prices, and so on - and these all currently use a simple format for CRUD, but it was designed by developers and looks very bland, and quite possibly could have far better usability, and certainly a better design.
Our process is:
Find screen - which also has an ADD NEW button. Enter values for any parameters relevant to search for and press FIND button. Matching records displayed in a grid with an EDIT link. The corresponding Edit form allows CLONE, DELETE and SAVE.
Where appropriate an Edit form may display Child Records.
For very complex records / relationships the Edit form is replaced by a Record Card, which displays everything including the kitchen sink! and appropriate records / sub records have EDIT links.
Its functional, but uninspiring.
On an 80:20 basis the code is all mechanically generated, so re-generating it for a new metaphor shouldn't be too hard.
I like a lot of the UI in the Magento eCommerce Admin pages, but I would be interested in any other examples you can recommend
Here are some examples of UI patterns:
Input Controls
Stacked Tabs
Inline Input Adder
One Page Wizards
Overlay
Generally each section will explain the pattern, how and why to use, and gives a handful of graphics as real world examples.
As an additional resource, you can also visit ThemeForest's admin template site and browse through their many products and get pictures and live tours of very well designed and styled admin pages. I personally have used a few of these templates for data heavy sites.
Hope these help you out some.
7/25/18 Update: While it is hard to keep links from nine years ago working, it seem that the website which hosted the UI examples is now gone. Read Farewell from Patternry for further information.

The Dynamic Data Web Site that you can create using .Net 3.5 is pretty handy. Good clean dynamic CRUD ability and yet very customizable. Routing makes it possible to default to generated pages when needed and custom pages if you choose to create them.

To me, the Django admin interface is a good example of a CRUD interface.
