Building a jQuery Plug-in to make an HTML Table scrollable(www.west-wind.com)

submitted by rstrahl(7226) 11 months, 28 days ago

Table displays in limited space require some rendering alternatives. While paging is a common way to address fixed size displays, it's not an end-all solution. Sometimes it's necessary to display larger amounts of data in a small fixed space on an HTML page. Scrollable list are fairly easy to do with most HTML structures, but HTML tables are notoriously difficult to manage when it comes to scrolling. In this post I describe a jQuery plug-in that attempts to make any table scrollable by decomposing and reassembling the table into two distinct areas. read more...

What’s Nu in the .NET World Part 2: Creating a Gem(dannydouglass.com)

submitted by DannyDouglass(1260) 1 year, 9 months ago

If you are not familiar with the Nu project start by reading my first post in this series that gives an introduction to getting started with this promising tool. As a quick reference I’ll post a paragraph from the last post introducing Nu: “Nu is an open source tool built by Dru Sellers (and several others) that aims at bringing Gems, one of Ruby’s most revered features, to the .NET world. If you are not familiar with Gems I suggest you take a minute to read up on them. I would venture a bet that you are already familiar with at least one gem – Ruby on Rails. The following line of code is all that is required to install the Ruby on Rails gem (after installing the Ruby library of course)…” This post is focused on sharing my experience in creating my first gem for the Spark View Engine. I would be doing you a great disservice if I did not start by saying how easy it is to create a gem. Actually easy is the wrong phrase – crazy easy is more telling. Since I would never ask you to take my word for it, it must mean it is time to show some code. read more...

Mercurial: Create Remote Repositories Using PowerShell(dannydouglass.com)

submitted by DannyDouglass(1260) 1 year, 9 months ago

One limitation when using http as a publishing mechanism is that you cannot create a repository remotely; no if, ands, or buts about it. Another twist was that our CM (Configuration Management) procedures dictate that our developers are not permitted to RDP into the Mercurial server. This left us trying to decide how to allow developers to create repositories remotely since our http communication channel does not allow remote repository creation. This post details an approach leveraging PowerShell as a solution to this problem. read more...

Rendering Script References into the Html Header(west-wind.com)

submitted by rstrahl(7226) 2 years, 4 months ago

In this post I'll show one of my components that allows embedding scripts and script references in the header of the document as well as many useful script embedding features for ASP.NET. read more...
