Do You Really Want to Be a Development Team Leader?(andrewtokeley.net)

submitted by tokes(1085) 4 years, 1 month ago

Ask any up and coming developer what they would like to do in the next year or so and you'll invariably hear, "I'd like to become a Development Team Leader". Hopefully most will have actually considered the change of role and be looking for new challenges and ways to contribute more to their chosen profession. However, for some this is an automatic response to a question that is particularly difficult to answer in an industry with no clear career path. For others it's simply a way to move up the pay scale. read more...

Embedding ASP.NET Server Variables in Client JavaScript(west-wind.com)

submitted by rstrahl(7226) 4 years, 3 months ago

Getting Server Variables embedded into a page and using them from JavaScript code can be a pain. Following Jon Galloway's post a few days ago I thought that maybe a solution that doesn't rely on ASP.NET AJAX and is more generic might be useful to make the task easier and apply much broader scope. The result is an easy to use, generic class that generates a JavaScript object from key value pairs created on the server from static values or dynamic control/object properties. read more...
