Having trouble with a recent Windows Update that failed to install the Office Live add-in 1.5? This has been driving me nuts on a Windows 7 Ultimate 64-bit system for three days. Windows Update would fail, click the "Try again" button and.fail

ScottGu on jQuery Templates and Data Linking

Fri, 07 May 2010 10:09:22 GMT

The jQuery library has a passionate community of developers, and it is now the most widely used JavaScript library on the web today. Two years ago I announced that Microsoft would begin offering product support for jQuery, and that we'd be including it in new versions of Visual Studio going forward. By default, when you create new ASP.NET Web Forms and ASP.NET MVC projects with VS 2010 you'll find jQuery automatically added to your project.

Silverlight 4: How to integrate Microsoft Translator Service

Fri, 07 May 2010 10:01:14 GMT

A few weeks ago, I found the Microsoft Translator Interactive SDK, and I recognized that it is very easy to use in .NET applications, like Silverlight and Windows Phone. So I started a sample application. After a while I got the idea to build a "UserControl" out of this feature. Why? Because it is "pickable" in the UI for a developer or Designer. The control itself is not visible at runtime, it only appears at designtime, as an ugly looking red box with its name on it.

Free at Last! The End of the Sueetie Shared Master Page Model

Tue, 04 May 2010 00:28:27 GMT

I'm putting a lot of effort in Gummy Bear 1.3 to make the creation of Community Themes and Theme Packs much, much easier. Something's wrong when you can setup an Online Community as rich in features as Sueetie in 15 minutes, but then must invest a week theming the thing. With Gummy Bear 1.3, the plan is to quickly setup an online community like always, but then be able to chose from a ton of Theme Packs to be up and running in production quickly.

Setting default member in role playing dimensions

Fri, 30 Apr 2010 12:38:02 GMT

Today I got a call from one of my colleagues asking how to set a default member for a dimension attribute . I was a little surprised as I thought setting a default member is quite straight forward and was even more surprised to learn that the dimension had processed successfully but the cube had failed with errors.

jQuery Access Key Helper

Fri, 30 Apr 2010 05:09:27 GMT

So I was at the SHDNUG last night and watched Todd Anglin give a demonstration on Silverlight 4. One of the really cool things I saw was when he hit a key, all the access keys popped up on the screen. Granted he wasn't really showing that part off because obviously Silverlight 4 does some cool things, but I thought it was a nice feature to have on an accessible site.

DotNetKicks Launches a Fresh Design for .NET Programmers

Fri, 30 Apr 2010 00:12:21 GMT

With the rise of social news sites, finding new content aggregation methods are pretty simple. And with how quickly the web is growing today, it's simple to find micro-niche sites for just about anything. DotNetKicks is one of my personal favorite sites - similar do DZone, but only for .NET and ASP programming links.

Design View Performance Improvements

Thu, 29 Apr 2010 01:25:27 GMT

In general, the designer is quite fast. This is especially true when editing pure HTML documents, which is what it was originally designed to do well. However, the designer edits more than HTML. It also has the rather sophisticated ability to edit ASP.Net pages containing various interesting web controls and master pages.

Duplicating Custom Page Styling in ScrewTurn Wiki Namespaces

Wed, 28 Apr 2010 21:49:03 GMT

One of the great features in ScrewTurn Wiki is namespaces, distinct wiki areas supporting namespace-specific permissions and administration, theming, page layouts and more. ScrewTurn Wiki namespaces are fully supported with Sueetie, but the Sueetie Activity Log wasn't correctly recording non-root wiki page permalinks. A small bug to be sure, but the fix gave me the chance to work with ScrewTurn Wiki Namespaces.
