I am putting together a registration form which has about 30 fields (no kidding). What is the current philosophy on layout? Put all elements on one form or break them up into a series of steps based on topic?
Thanks

I am a fan of only having the user enter in the LEAST amount possible to create the profile and then allowing them to "turn on" features by finishing the completion of the profile (i.e. registration form)
Don't look at the home depot registration as an example :)
Twitter actually does a pretty good job at this.

The important thing is to let the user know whats there to be filled. In most cases you are better off separating fields in sectins / pages, but don't forget to display what (at least how many pages) are left to be filled.

I want to store number of photo album in SharePoint Picture library, I can create different folder and store picture to respected folder. Is it possible to change folder picture and make it thumbnail size so it look like album. Or is there any better solution for this
Regards,
You can change the Icon image for folders in the actual root of your website directory, but this will affect all folders on your website.
There does not appear to be a way to specify a specific icon for a folder; they all utilise the same file globally.
I honestly think you would be better off avoiding doing this. If it's possible (I can't categorically say no because I'm not omnipotent) it would be very hackish, as there is no methods built into Sharepoint, and take a lot of effort for very small aesthetic benefit.

Is there any information on how to create your own datasources for xpages? I'm busy developing a java API for a system of ours and I would like to be able to use the data as a datasource within xpages.
There was a Lotusphere 2011 session SHOW107 that walked you through the steps. Read about it on Jim's blog, the BleedYellow community, an excellent slideck from Paul (and related) as well as SHOW107 itself.
One caveat: The data sources don't show their fields in the Domino Designer. If you want that functionality then, instead of looking at com.ibm.xsp.extlib.model.ObjectDataSource you would subclass the DominoDocument and more or less overwrite all functions.
You could look in the source code of the extension library. There you will find the class com.ibm.xsp.extlib.model.ObjectDataSource as an easy example.

I want to give free shipping for certain regions with specified zip codes. How will i achieve this functionality ?
I have two options of "Table Rates" and "Shopping Cart Rule". Now which one will work for me in all shipping methods such USPS and Fedex etc.
You should buy an extension for that. There are plenty of custom-rate ones. We use a custom rate extension that allows us to write in the shipping via the admin interface.

i found the solution and it worked very fine. And the solution was to use shopping cart rule cery well defined on this link

I'm currently searching for as many material as possible on the formats above for a paper. Currently, all I've come up with are websites concerning the matter, now the question is; are there sophisticated other sources of information on that topic? Preferrably written stuff - I'm especially intereseted in the actual application of such graphic formats for display in browsers and alike.
The main reason is, that I don't want my whole bibliography to be made up with websites -- profs dun like that no much -- so I was hoping for some "hard" information, as they say...
Most of the standards for web formats in particular, but file formats in general are written by organisations and published via the internet. For instance, SVG is under the jurisdiction of the W3C as is WebCGM. I would expect that references to these sorts of organisations should be fine for academics, though make sure you use the permanent links to the exact document you are citing (ie, not the links I've provided which are the 'up to the minute' links).
eg:
Bad: http://w3.org/TR/SVG
Good: http://www.w3.org/TR/2010/WD-SVG11-20100622/
The main reason for this is that these documents are always under review, and change almost constantly. Keeping printed copies would just be a huge burden and not very helpful in the long run.

Another question asked why there are so few non-vi modal editors. A few of the comments in that question mentioned other modal editors in passing, but I think that it would be useful to develop a more comprehensive list. Searching for this information on Google is difficult, as vim-related information tends to drown out everything else.
A few items to get things rolling:
Divascheme (From the previously mentioned question)
Ed (According to this)
There have been many Non-vi modal editors over the years. Many of them tied to a single operating system.
WordStar, edlin, and ISPF come to mind. Also EDIT from the HDOS system. There are probably at least a dozen others named EDIT or it's variants.
I've never tried it, but AFAIK Emacs has a plugin to emulate vi's modal editing.
Elvis is one of these editors.
Also, nvi could count as one.
