Code Hacker is a software development site that utilizes ASP.NET, AJAX, iTextSharp, jQuery, and SQL Server.

Definition of Code Hacker

Code - the symbolic arrangement of statements or instructions in a computer program in which letters, digits, etc. are represented as binary numbers; the set of instructions in such a program.

Hacker - one who is proficient at using or programming a computer - a computer buff.

We are not a Cracker site. This is the definition of a Cracker:

'A cracker is someone who breaks into someone else's computer system, often on a network; bypasses passwords or licenses in computer programs; or in other ways intentionally breaches computer security. A cracker can be doing this for profit, maliciously, for some altruistic purpose or cause, or because the challenge is there. Some breaking-and-entering has been done ostensibly to point out weaknesses in a site's security system.' -- Definition from Whatis.com

It appears that the crackers did not like this name because people thought that they lived in Georgia or Florida. So they called themselves hackers, but they are still crackers.

Software development and testing includes:

• ASP.NET Applications
• iTextSharp Applications
• jQuery Applications

This website is now using ASP.NET 3.5 and SQL Server 2008.

It is best to use Microsoft Internet Explorer to browse this website. Other browsers may not work due to Microsoft's new .NET design features.

A lot of emails have been coming in with this common question - How come your chapter titles on your iTextSharp web page do not match the chapter titles from Bruno Lowagie's book iText in Action?

Well dear coders, the answer is simple. Bruno's first publication was so successful that he released a second publication. Our code is based on his first publication.

Please purchase this book if you want to master PDF document creation. We do not have the time to answer the emails that keep coming in about how this PDF method works or how to perform a specific PDF modification.

Bruno has done an excellent job in explaining PDF document creation and manipulation. You should be able to master PDF documents by simply reading his book and examining the source code on our iTextSharp web page. Because after all, it is Bruno's source code translated to C#.
