View 1 Repliesour dev shop uses the naming guidelines as laid out in MS's MSDN content "Design Guidelines for Developing Class Libraries". It's a pain though having to refer to this via the web only. Does anyone know if this content is available in PDF or CHM format? My devs are resisting reviewing the webpage and I think sticking a portable file in their face might be more successful.
View 2 RepliesI have a webapp with a Masterpage and 4 or so content pages. I have created a theme folder with a style sheet. I put the <pages theme="Default" in the web.config. When I run the app all the styles in the style sheet apply and it looks great. But design view does not apply the styles from my theme. Design view does not use the web.config setting or something. How do I get design view to apply the theme styles.

View 1 RepliesI am now in process doing theme for my web application.
This is how i want my Theme work :Whenever user choose to change the theme, the whole web site theme should changed accrodingly.
Most of the examples that i find out online require to assign the theme in Page_PreInit event in every page. The theme name is store in session variable.
My concern is that is there anyway to assign particular theme to whole web site without having assing it to every page and store the theme into session variable.
I have a few sites that use the same application but use details to populate the site content such as title, logo and theme based on the URL. These details are stored in a database.
What is the best way to populate these details. I was thinking this should be done in the Global.asax rather then my page.master
I have a master page that is used for all the sites and had the code called ther but it might be better to do the database calls in Global rather then in the master page?

I'm trying to figure out a logical and quick way to implement the "PRG" design style in a small site I'm doing, and I'm finding an issue I can't think of a good way to solve.I have a form. It has 2 fields (first and last name). When the user submits the form, I check to make sure that they have data in them before I save it to the database. If they do not, then I show them a nice little error message and leave what little they have entered still in the form.However, in order to correctly implement PRG, as I understand it

View 6 RepliesSo i was thinking on using an image and a literal control. The questions i have is
1)Is there a better control to use than literal?I am using it because the text would have html and i must render it.
2)How i will achieve putting text beside the picture(the site uses a <strong> as i see in firebug but i cannot view the css and after that everything is simple text and some <br> )?
If i put the literal beside with <strong> and have a specific div size will the text automatically go below when reach the div limit?I'm asking because it will be html so i don't know if it(html) can surpass the main div container.
I am currently working on a document management system in ASP.NET 3.5 using the Telerik AJAX toolkit. It consists of masterpage with a title banner across the top and a RadTreeview down the left hand side for navigation through the site. The treeview uses a combination of static nodes and dynamic ones. The dynamic nodes are populated via a webservice. When a node is clicked the relevant page is navigated to, reloading the masterpage and displaying the content of the target page.
The problem comes from the fact the treeview's dynamic nodes are populated via a webservice and therefore as the user navigates through the tree to find a document the treeview behaves as you would expect. However, when you get to the bottom of a tree of dynamic nodes the navigation to the page of the navigateurl causes the relevant page to be loaded and then the treeview resets itself to a collapsed state. This means the user could be deep in a nest of documents but when they view one, the tree collapses and they have to start their navigation all over again. This limitation is not going to be acceptable from an ease of use perspective.
According to Telerik, this is the designed behaviour for performance reasons - the node only ever worries about populating the next set of nodes and therefore the treeviews state is not remembered in viewstate.
So, the meat of question is. Is the masterpage/async treeview navigation design pattern a valid one? Are there any other ways to have an ajax treeview on a masterpage, that remembers it's state when another page is navigated to? I have considered a siglepage/updatepanel/partial page rendering model but the opinions I've seen on the net infer that this is bad idea. It confuses users that expect back/forward browser behaviour to navigate through the site but in a single page world they would end up leaving the site.
I also thought that maybe using a single page container and an iframe may work but this seems to be moving away from the "standard" design pattern of using masterpages.
can't connect to sql 2005 express sp1 and vs is also sp1. 2) Which my guess is because of the database connection not being able... design view is not able to pull in the application for design, it's as if there is no theme and css just white background and black print.
View 1 RepliesI installed Rad Controls. Using that controls, I designed my application pages. At design time, the design is not visible. It shows the following error:

I'm about to design my Web service API, most of the functions of my API is basically very simular to my web application. Now the question is, should I create 1 single method and reuse them for both the web application and the web service api? (This seems to be the logical solution, however its very complicated; it's much easier to duplicate the method used by the web application, and keep both separate, ie one method for the web application and one method for the web service.)
1) REUSE: one main method and reuse them for both web application and web service application (I like this but it's complicated)
WebAppMethodX --uses-->
COMMONFUNCTIONMETHOD_X
APIMethodX ---uses---->
COMMONFUNCTIONMETHOD_X
ie Commonfunctionmethod_x contains reusable set of common features
PRO: less code, less maintenance, less bugs.
CON: very complicated
2) DUPLICATE: two methods, one method for the web application and one method for the web service.
WebAppMethodX
APIMethodX
PRO: simple
CON: duplication = more code, more maintenance, more bugs!

I am currently building 3-tired ASP.NET 3.5 Web application which has workflows built in for manager approvals. Currently there is a dashboard on the homepage of the website where all the pending approvals are displayed in a webpart. I want to build a plugin for MS Outlook so that whenever there is a new request for approval I want that request to show up in MS outlook. Where do I start with this? Do I have to expose my business logic layer through webservices?

We've got a product built using ASP.NET web forms (3.5), and are investigating adding an API to allow other applications to access data and business logic within the application.
What is the best way to implement this? I'm inclined to go down the route of using Http Handlers to read posted XML and return XML, but I'm sure there must be a better way. Is it advisable to use something like WCF instead?As the product will be downloaded and installed by users on their own servers (instead of hosted), it seems like there's a lot of pressure to get it right the first time as making changes will be hard once users start downloading and using the product.
