I previously posted about a Community Server url encoding problem on Vista. The problem was the urls in the tag cloud where rendering spaces with + rather than %20. On Vista (and Windows Server 2008), this results in a 404 error. At the time I spend a...
If you have an ASMX client, you can get it to call a WCF endpoint with some restrictions. You have to use the basicHttpBinding on the WCF service and the service implementation (or contract) needs to be decorated with the XmlSerializerFormat attribute...
Here's a little tip. If your databound control is not firing it's databinding, make sure that the control and all of its parents are visible on the page. If it isn't visible, OnPreRender doesn't fire and therefore your databinding won't either. Makes...
Have you ever needed to have nested databound controls using multiple ObjectDataSources, where the nested ObjectDataSource has a select parameter that requires a databound value itself? You have no doubt tried the following: < asp:ObjectDataSource...
Neovolve.Schema.Extensions is a project that will do entity mapping for web reference code generations from a WSDL. When you update a web reference in the Visual Studio IDE, it will get the latest version of the WSDL and generate code to access the web...

I thought that I would not give in to comment spam. You might be thinking that I did give in, but you would be wrong. Ok, so I kinda did give in, it just depends on your point of view. Comment spam has been getting more than rediculous over the last couple...
I came across a post in the Code Project feed this morning called ' Using a Control Adapter to Properly Display PNG Images in IE ' by Charles Windhausen. This is such a simple and very effective way around the PNG problem in IE. Fantastic idea.
Back in April , I posted to the Product Feedback Center regarding a bug I found in the htmltextwriter. Finally there is an official response to the submission. Unfortunately, this bug falls into the red bits category, and so we are not able to address...

I have been working on a fun project recently. I have put together a VirtualThemeProvider that uses the VirtualPathProvider in the 2.0 framework. The VirtualThemeProvider provides functionality for flexible ASP.Net theme support. It provides the ability...
Scott Guthrie posted some ASP.Net tips several weeks ago. There were heaps of great ideas that he put into his presentation, one of which was about registering controls for aspx pages. User controls and custom controls that are used on a page need to...
Last week, a colleague told me how to get intellisense support in xml documents in the VS2005 IDE. It is really easy, although there are some interesting quirks in the process. To pull this off, you first need to get an xsd file that defines your xml...
