I am trying to write a simple library for MVC2 projects that takes care of user login, e-mail validation, password recovery, logging, etc. Since some of these steps involve user interaction, I need to have Views and Controllers in that project.In MVC2 Preview 2, one could do this by abusing areas (at least, it seems) since they were implemented as different projects. However, in the RC, creating a new area will merely create a subfolder. Since I want to share the base code between applications, that is not an option.I tried to brutally hack the AfterBuild steps into my project files, but that feels like the craziest hack ever.
I want to build a reusable library of User Controls.
I found this article:

While it works for me, but I find it a bit cumbersome to implement, expecially for future maintenance.Also, I noticed that if you create the User Control with code in separate file, it will not work. In this case, you will not get any error, but, the page where the control in registerted will not show (you will get blank page).Why I am getting BLANK result when I develop the User Control with code in separate file ?I appreciate your recommendation on the best approach to implement a library of Reusable User Controls. Also, I did not like the method of Web Controls, becuase they are difficult to implement.
I have been given the task to create a TAB control ( probably the Jquery tab control) as the company wants the Lazy loading of data.
The tab control should not have fixed items on it. It should be reusable in different projects . So I cannot fix the items in the tab control. Depending upon the project the tabs can change.
Need some great ideas on how I can achieve it.
Note: I am using MVC, VS 2008, C# for my development.
I want to create a reusable user control which contains a date time picker in asp.net. Need to add this user control in a grid view as column.While clicking the column,date time picker has to be displayed.Which is the suitable method,Creating the component or creating the user control. Also want to know, How to add this component in to the toolbox?
User instantiates an action which calls a controller. The controller tries to render a view that contains content + multiple widgets (left rail, right rail, etc). The Widgets all have their own individual partial views but each partial view should inherit or consume a base set of widget markup and have controller areas where to embed functionality.
Functionality in the head, body, and footer can either be plain text, HTML, or additional custom controls.
am trying to create view form in my MVC2 applicationIn this i have a submit button which is an imagebut when i try to run it shows a normal windows button the image is not shown(the image is a round edged).the code is as below:
I am currently developing an application with the new ASP.NET MVC2 framework. Originally I started writing this application in the ASP.NET MVC1 and I'm basically just updating it to MVC2.My problem here is, that I don't really get the concept of the FormCollection object vs. the old Typed object. This is my current code:
[AcceptVerbs(HttpVerbs.Post)] public ActionResult Create(FormCollection collection) {[code]....
What are the benefits of switching to FormCollection in MVC2 and more importantly - how is it used properly?
i want create a class Library work with SQL Linq ,when i create a LINQ Data Class it automatic create some connectionString and use the database namemy question is can i change some settings that, use this class Library in difrent website with difrent connectionStrings?
have few doubts running though my mind which I want to clear. Here is my scenariolet's say I want to create a website for library management.I need to have registration page where I will allow users to register and login. My doubt is : After login how do I restrict users from accessing only the authorized page ? also I need to make sure that they should not access pages by entering the url directly without authentication ? i don't want to use the login controls provided in asp.net by default.
I would like to learn to use Validations from a class library in my projects. I am trying to create a simple project, so when a button is pressed a validation from a method in the class library checks to see a textbox on my ASPX form if it has a valid integer in it and a label message display true/false. How abouts would I get this?
I am looking at the twitter api page http://apiwiki.twitter.com/ and I noticed that they have already built libraries that are wrappers against the twitter api. So I am thinking this is the best way to go but I am unsure which C# library I should use.
What I am trying to do is make some simple service or cmd line application that will help me automate retweeting.
So I am looking for a library that will allow me to get posts from other twitter accounts and then retweet them from another account.
I am not sure if the library can do this or not. Otherwise I was thinking of getting the RSS feed from the twiter account I want to get the twitters from parse out the new ones and use a library to retweet them on my own account.
I have not used twitter much so I am hopping someone can shed some light on this.
Could someone give me a small example how i can make reusable WebUserControl (.ascx) file.Basically i need to make a employee lookup utility where users enters employee id to get Emplyee information.Once the Emplyee information is available, it is used in various data entry tasks by the page that includes the control.
I'm trying to create reusable "zones" but am having trouble figuring out how to give them all unique ids.What I'd like is to be able to create a component which can be put on an mvc page using the usercontrol syntax or using RenderAction or RenderPartial. I want to be able to update these components' content using ajax, so I need someway to reference them by id. However, there is no mechanism in MVC that wraps anything in a div or something like that.
I've learned that if I extend ViewUserControl and put the controls on the page like so:
[Code]....
This way, I can pass the previous ID and put it in ViewData, in case I need it laterThen, I can even go through all my controls on page load event in the master page and get my unique ID and write somekind of register javascript function to the page so that I can do javascript stuff if I want when the page loads.
[Code]....
Is there a more elegant way to do this? I see similar stuff from 'Areas' but never seen an example where someone has put more than one area on a page and then needed to reference them via javascript. This also seems similar to custom templates, but I'm having trouble figuring out how that would work.
I want have a web application that I am putting together - but I have started to see that some of the things I am writing are repeated over and over, example -
GetDepartments() in the code behind has all the database connections and is linked to a stored procedure.All it does is return Department Names' and Ids', ie then bind them to a dropdownlist.My question is this I have seen Class files - I want to know if I can put this type of information in there and just call it whereever I need it in the site and then bind to whichever dropdownlist I need to?I have had a look around the net and even saw some examples by scott mitchell - but it used datasets (.xsd) files etc and dont want to be using them, plus it was a little over my head. Does anyone know of some good simple examples out there that I can follow, or maybe some examples on here?
I have a situation where I need to maintain a large number of related integer values in my ASP.Net 3.5 application. The SortedList seems perfect for this purpose. If this were a Windows app I'd just create a class and setup one method to Set values within the SortedList and another one to Get values out of it.
But being a web app, I'm not entirely sure of the best approach to use. Sure, I could just create one method for Set and another for Get but that doesn't seem very "clean".I thought about creating a UserControl without any visual elements but am not sure if that makes sense.How would you go about implementing such a SortedList in your web app?
I want to build a reusable control which will enable e to perform add/edit/delete operations easily. All I want to do is give the control a datasource and it will handle the rest.
What controls should I use? I want it to be as user friendly as possible.
In .NET land what would be a good approach for quick prototyping of a concept (i.e. development just on my PC) that could then be extended out to product (users across LAN/WAN), BUT in a fashion that the model/business logic code and data access layer code can be used as is? One thought for example I had as to do: (a) WinForms with business logic and Entity Framework layer to SQL Server Express on my PC, then (b) Go then to ASP.net (using the business logic / data library) with SQL Server/IIS
