I need to add a paging, sortable table to my GWT application.
I see lots of these out there so I'm looking for your experience to save me time by choosing the best one.
So far I'm looking at...
http://code.google.com/p/gwt-advanced-table/
http://code.google.com/p/google-web-toolkit-incubator/wiki/PagingScrollTableOld
I like the second one best. Any stories to tell?
There's a new CellTable that has support for paging. It's in the GWT trunk right now and will, with any luck, make it into a 2.1 release later this year.
It's already been answered here
And unfortunately there is no satisfying implementation available.
The best approach i have found has the GWT widget library. I have used it to create my own paging solution.
I completely disagree that there is no suitable solution. You really need to check out GXT. I am using the Paging Grid implementation in my organization with great success.

I have been using gwtlib [http://code.google.com/p/gwtlib/] its a nice expendable solution that uses the Controller Pattern, I have been using it in some personal projects.
I agree that GXT is the best solution, but, as i said before, it has a commercial license in this way any non open source project has to pay for it!

I am looking to visualize ontologies for understanding and making others understand. I would prefer to have top-down hierarchy of classes. I have used OntoGraph which comes with Protégé, but I am not happy with the figure :(. I have also used Microsoft Visio and stencils available for Ontology, but that too has not impressed me.
Through this question I would like to know which is the best tool for visualizing an ontology for general purpose, and/or for specific purpose (like writing an academic paper).
Thanks.

I do not have complete answer for your specific problem, but you may try to review the Mike Bergman's list of tools (for ontology visualization).
Note, RDF is a graph, so you may be able to use any graph-visualization software. "Only" need to map RDF to tool-specific model.
While not an ontology specific tool, thejit is a very nice javascript visualization toolkit. I've used it in the past for custom semweb-related visualizations. You won't get much out of the box support but if you don't mind putting in some coding time, you can get some nice looking graphs.
I can highly recommend you to utilize the graphical editor of TopBraid Composer Maestro Edition. The graphics are not the most beautiful ones. However, it's interactive ;-)

I am exploring CMS tools Alfresco and Liferay, but cant decide which is better for Web Content Management.
Please help me decide which tool to use for web. Opinions and suggestions are welcome.
Just use your favourite search machine and voila I've got topics covering this question:
e.g. here
If you can't decide, go for the pragmatic solution and just pick one.
You'll have to decide if you rather like the Content- or the Portal-centric approach - e.g. what else other than CMS do you expect from the solution you choose. As you ask for opinions: I'm tending to prefer a portal (but then, I'll have to disclaim that I work for Liferay) because it can integrate quite a lot more functionality - and extension is done through a well known standard interface (portlets). And I'm typically seeing requirements that ask for more than just content management.
Integration of both products is possible, but it's an additional effort that needs to be done - and you'll have to understand both. There are many people doing that, but if one solution goes 95% of what you need, you could save yourself the integration work.
But if you really want some useful answers here you might want to give more information about what you actually want to use them for, because personal opinions and suggestions might not help you with your personal requirements if you leave them unknown.
This blog post should be helpful enough as to WCM in Liferay. Talking about WCM (not Document/Enterprise content management) I would go with Liferay, because it is really easy and quite powerful, especially recently after a few new features were introduced (very cool web content staging and versioning). Alfresco is good for enterprise content management, but I wouldn't choose it for WCM, the Spring Surf and Spring Web Scripts it is using was quite hard to get used to.

One of my customers want to have a simple CMS/blogging platform.
I have experience with Sharepoint variations and that method is very good for him anyway he could not afford the cost of a Sharepoint for Internet license.
Which of the platform currently available have easy to use features for adding multilanguage content and handle its translations workflows?
If you want a good cms php & mysql with blog you can use doorGets CMS, it's very easy to install and use, http://sourceforge.net/projects/doorgets-cms/files/latest/download?source=files
Since you mentioned Sharepoint, I am assuming you are looking for a .NET solution.
If that is the case, take a look at Umbraco, an open source CMS.
Drupal has this built-in since version 6. The i18n module adds some advanced features as well.
Wordpress ( http://codex.wordpress.org/Translating_WordPress ) also has good support for i18n, and its admin interface is less complicated than Drupal's. You would need to use a 3rd party application (say, poedit http://dorkage.net/blog/2009/02/15/internationalization-work-flow-with-poedit/ ) to work with the translations, though.

I want to learn some basics about MSHTML, like how to use IHtmlDocument and IHtmlDocument2 interfaces. I searched for quite a while, but can not find out a tutorial for beginners. Could anyone recommend something to read?
EDIT: I prefer to use C#.
When I was learning to use MSHTML I mostly relied on the MSDN documentation and asked specific details in newsgroups and sites like this.
It also helped me alot to download the whole Windows SDK instead of reading online.
If you are using C#, then you should not be using MSHTML. Use the WebBrowser component if you're using Windows Forms, use any of the XML APIs if you're trying to generate HTML (as XHTML). You might possibly want to use an HtmlWriter, but stay away from unmanaged code, if you can help it.
Links:
WebBrowser Control (Windows Forms)
HtmlTextWriter Class (System.Web.UI)
http://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Search/en-US/?query=mshtml%20tutorial&ac=1
BTW, MSHTML is not a new thing - it's an old thing.
BTW2, is this the George2?
There are some tutorials under the "hosting and reuse" section of IE SDK documentation. But I guess you need to read the DHTML tutorials under the HTML/CSS section as well.

I need a free very simple CMS which i can host on my own server just like Cushy CMS www.cushycms.com. is there any ?
I recently wrote an alternative to CushyCMS because I wanted the open source community to have a free alternative.
Mechedit is an open source CushyCMS like applciation. Runs on PHP5 only though.
Orbis CMS is another open source alternative to CushyCMS. It's built on the same pricinples (simplicity, ease-of-use) and features a stylish interface, but is self-hosted and free.
SnappySnippets is a free and simple alternative; it is highly customizable and has a desktop interface that your clients will find easy to use. It is hosted so that you don't have to install anything
There are many questions like this on Stackover flow
for example:
link text
Just search for CMS
Good question which I was asking myself recently. This is a neglected corner of the CMS landscape. However, I did find:
this rather detailed and intelligent summary list:
http://www.matthijskamstra.nl/blog/index.php/2011/02/16/lightweight-cms-for-simple-projects/
a briefer but recently updated list of 40 lightweight CMSs http://www.abcphp.com/out/top-40-free-simple-lightweight-cms-|-vivalogo-resources/
Two other lists, both from 2012 and neither suggesting much examination of the products:
http://webdesignledger.com/tools/10-simple-and-light-weight-cms-solutions
http://speckyboy.com/2010/07/19/14-light-and-east-to-use-open-source-content-management-systems/
In case you're wondering, the project I was looking at using one of these for got a little more complicated and I ended up going to a more heavyweight system, with a simplified interface on top of it.
There's a lesson there. Many systems that will cope with complex needs (Drupal, MODX etc) can still be installed pretty quickly, and your users' needs are only going to grow more complex over time.
That said, I'd still like to think lightweight systems have their place. Let us know what you chose.
