''Partial classes'' is on of the new features of v2 that, while I totally get why Microsoft wanted to add it, I didn't really see any use of them beyond the vstudio code gen world. ''Nested classes'' was one of the features of v1 that, while I completely understood the theoretical point of them, I had a HECK of a time coming up with any possible ...

The cat's out of the bag about Atlas. AJAX may actually get productive soon. Not to dismiss the other frameworks in place at all. ( AJAX.net has some great ideas there ) It's just easier to incorporate a library into custom controls when it's already baked into the system. Boy, I would _kill_ to be on the team working on that. Share ...

Teemu brought up the current event declaration behavior today, and even pointed to a bug report about it. I'm going to take the opposite stance. putting the onclick=''whatever'' attribute on the tag is the best solution to a complicated problem. Now, if the problem were limited to the points that Teemu addresses, then yes, it looks like it ...

Most databound controls are written from the perspective that they will be databound to something, but the control writer doesn’t know what that would be. It is assumed that the control’s container will set the datasource and databind it. Therefore the same container knows about and handles the datasource, databinding, viewstate usages, event ...

Of all the features cut from asp.net v2, the only one that I'm really going to miss is the loss of DyanmicImage and the Image Generation Service.  Not so much because it's a little harder to do dynamic images in my app without them, but because it's much harder to do dynamic images in my 3rd party server controls without them. The fact ...

It's not often that a contractor says, ''wow, I’m so incredibly happy about my latest client'', but I see myself in that position. And seeing that I have a voice, I just need to tell y’all. I recently signed up to help out Telligent with their Community Server: Forums project. I can’t express how big the smile on my face was when I started ...

I've had these control dev macros sitting around for a while, and I thought I'd share them finally. First I looked for a wiki I could post them to, but I was surprised to not find one for vstudio addins/macros/whatnot. The closest I found was the gotdotnet developer powertoy site, but the whole submission/wait-for-approval thing just bores ...

I ran into a rather unfortunate issue today with a server control that I thought would probably be good to talk about. The issue is created by non-bugs that come together to make a bug. Firefox persists the values of form fields when the user refreshes the page. Firefox does not persist any script objects ...

It's taken me a while to remember to do this... I gave a presentation on monday to the denver .net user group on developing asp.net server controls and i'm positing the presentation materials on for those that want it. So anyway, grab the powerpoint and code from my presentation if you want it. Share this post: Email it! | bookmark it! | digg ...
