MessageBox – The jQuery Plugin(www.jrummell.com)

submitted by johnrummell(1321) 1 year ago

Now that I’ve been working more and more with ASP.NET MVC, I’ve been rewriting some of my server side controls with jQuery plugins. A while back I shared my version of Janko’s popular MessageBox control. I’ve created a similar effect with a jQuery plugin based on the Highlight/Error examples on the jQuery UI Themes page. read more...

VS 2010 and .NET 4 Series - ScottGu's Blog(weblogs.asp.net)

submitted by johnrummell(1321) 2 years, 4 months ago

Over the next few months I’m going to be doing a series of posts that talk about some of the cool things coming with the VS 2010 and .NET 4 release. VS 2010 and .NET 4 are the next major releases of our developer tools and framework. Together they contain a ton of new functionality and improvements that I think you’ll really like, and which make building applications of all types easier, faster and better. The improvements range from nice small tweaks to major, major enhancements - and can be found across the .NET Framework, the languages, and the IDE. read more...

ASP.NET MVC 2 - ScottGu's Blog(weblogs.asp.net)

submitted by johnrummell(1321) 2 years, 4 months ago

ASP.NET MVC View Model Patterns(geekswithblogs.net)

submitted by johnrummell(1321) 2 years, 7 months ago

Since MVC has been released I have observed much confusion about how best to construct view models. Sometimes this confusion is not without good reason since there does not seem to be a ton of information out there on best practice recommendations. Additionally, there is not a “one size fits all” solution that acts as the silver bullet. In this post, I’ll describe a few of the main patterns that have emerged and the pros/cons of each. It is important to note that many of these patterns have emerged from people solving real-world issues. read more...

Clean Web.Config Files (VS 2010 and .NET 4.0 Series) (weblogs.asp.net)

submitted by johnrummell(1321) 2 years, 9 months ago

This is the first in a series of blog posts I’m doing on the upcoming VS 2010 and .NET 4 release. Today’s post is about an admittedly small, but I still think kind of nice, change coming with ASP.NET 4.0: clean, simple, web.config files. You’ll encounter this improvement the first time you do a File->New Project within Visual Studio 2010 and create an empty ASP.NET 4.0 Web application (which is why I thought it might be appropriate to-do as the first post). read more...

Refactoring Day 1 : Encapsulate Collection(lostechies.com)

submitted by johnrummell(1321) 2 years, 9 months ago

In certain scenarios it is beneficial to not expose a full collection to consumers of a class. Some of these circumstances is when there is additional logic associated with adding/removing items from a collection. Because of this reason, it is a good idea to only expose the collection as something you can iterate over without modifying the collection. read more...
