My name is Iain Munro. I have been using Sharepoint now for about 3 1/2 years and would refer to myself as a bit of a power user. Over the past year I got more into Sharepoint and started to try and get it to do more with it.
Over the past few months I have got Sharepoint to do a lot more than I ever had in the past and started to learn a little more about what other programming languages could do. Looking at what you guys can do with Sharepoint is phenomenal – where I would like to be
I am now building sites using mainly the Content Editor Web Part (CEWP) and the Page View Webpart linking it with CSS and JS as I only really have access to the client side as opposed to the server side.
The issues that I come across not being a programmer or having access to a server to install web parts is the ability to take full advantage of what Sharepoint can offer.
After trawling the web in search of help, I have come across lots of stuff out there as well as many people who live and die by the CEWP, so I thought, what the heck, I will create a site for just that – CEWPs.
I would imagine that the majority of you reading this (if I managed to get some site traffic) are programmers.
All of you have created great CEWPs and tell us how to install them. The problem is that the majority of the people reading your entries are non-programmers and do not have access to the server.
Therefore, we want just cool and neat web parts built only using the CEWP or the XML web part.
