Spark Macro for Uploadify, Take One-B(whereslou.com)

submitted by Lord(3732) 2 years, 8 months ago

Matt recently wrote in ASP.NET MVC HtmlHelper for Uploadify, Take One about a fairly common problem in the shades of gray where html and code concerns overlap. It’s a game of trying to get the least of both evils mixed in with the other. Matt makes a particularly insightful remark in a comment, “what I dislike is how the balance of language in the helpers tends to shift from C# to JavaScript or HTML.” I’d agree with that. On the one hand you’re trying to avoid excessive code in your template, but in doing so you’re dragging markup into your code. It’s actually a great example of a primary use-case for a macro in the Spark language, which lets you declare a helper method in the template language.
