CMS’s have been built to try to solve two problems: give content managers the tools create content and to remove roadblocks to that process. Many implementations fail to accomplish that task. There are always two stories that can be told when content management systems (CMS) are talked about and introduced. These stories are told by two groups of people; Developers and Content Managers.
I am constantly asked to review and analyze websites’ performance statistics and analytics. Over the years, I have found several tools known and unknown that I use in combination to get an idea of the overall health and performance of these sites. As a developer, if you are not looking at these tools or similar tools, help yourself and get on board.
This week I am exploring security scanning tools and why they can be a useful tool in development.

Today I learned that opening local content in InAppBrowser on iOS devices using the system browser (Safari) is impossible. This is due to Apple’s security scheme setup to protect iOS devices from total security failures due to improperly secured applications. This is a GOOD thing! Without sandboxing, a hacker could exploit a vulnerability in an app to gain access to the entire device.
I’m going to explain how I chose to maintain current functionality of viewing content in an InAppBrowser while still giving the user the option to share the content using default mechanisms.
