Using the connection strings in your web.config for LINQ(arkesystems.com)

submitted by trenton(60) 3 years, 11 months ago

I ended up writing a partial class that allowed me to keep the nice default constructor with LINQ DataContexts, and also use a simple connection string in the web.config file. read more...

Innovative use of Silverlight and DeepZoom(timheuer.com)

submitted by crpietschmann(11.3k) 3 years, 11 months ago

Take a few minutes and look at this video of Jose Fajardo re-demonstrating one of his ReMIX features shown using Silverlight and DeepZoom. Are you kidding me?! Seriously, Jose has a great imagination and an incredible sense for effectively demonstrating things. In this video he answers questions posed to himself like “what if all web images were DeepZoom-able?” and “what if all the documents on the web were DeepZoom-able?” Then he gets crazy and suggests that people could collaborate with a DeepZoom image and demonstrates this using a Silverlight chat experience built using network sockets. I love his context of showing an x-ray and possibly having physicians review this together. read more...

Visions in Online Crystal Ball: Is Silverlight™ 2.0 - “THE NEXT BIG TH(perpetuumsoft.com)

submitted by Samanta(50) 4 years ago

The Holy War has begun. Forums and blogs are full of flames on «Ajax™ vs Flash™ vs Silverlight™ vs JavaFX™». Currently it is obvious that in the near future SaaS (Software-as-a-Service) application distribution model will capture considerable part of both corporate market and home users sphere. It is estimated that about 25% of corporate applications will be distributed as SaaS by 2011. I won’t go into detail of advantages of this distribution model, as there are many publications on this topic. It is enough to say that SaaS applications don’t require installation on client computers. As a result only provider should take care of application setup, management and maintenance; this helps dramatically scrimp on software licensing and save considerable sum on hardware and IT personnel. read more...

UFRAME: goodness of UpdatePanel and IFRAME combined(codeproject.com)

submitted by oazabir(1805) 4 years ago

UFrame simulates the behavior of IFRAME on a DIV. Any page can be loaded inside a DIV and hyperlink navigation and form posts happen within the DIV. As a result, a regular page can start providing AJAX features without ever writing any AJAX code. ASP.NET MVC websites can now use UFrame instead of UpdatePanel. read more...
