Umbraco CMS25 titlesIPublished content extension for getting crop image file easily
0
ImageCropper datatype was once part of uComponents, but because it is so usefull, it is now included into standard Umbraco instalation.

JQuery .onchange issue in IE8
JavaScript31 titlesSolution for onchange event in old Internet Explorer versions
0
Apparently IE8 and older versions of IE browsers do not support JQuery onchange event for checkboxes and radio buttons.
If you are using this for handling this event, your script will fail, because these events will not be fired on IE8 or older IE. Instead of this you can add handler for onclick event which works fine in pretty much any browser.
