I am in a partnership with someone. We are currently planning a system that can either use ASP.NET MVC or PHP With //Insert your framework here//. At this stage I can't say to much. Now the thing is I have a bit of experience with C# and MVC. I understand the concepts and actually wrote a fully functional blog with it. Now the other side of me wants to take PHP for a test drive. Will I waste my time? How good will ASP.NET MVC scale against PHP? I have to say that I love visual studio and the integration of MVC tools like quickly adding a view and a controller... Everything fits nicely. But the learning curve was quite steep and still is. I haven't really touched AJAX and Jquery yet but how easy is it to use it with ASP.NET MVC? I already googled and researched this but I want opinions of those who have been working with these technologies.
Which Programming Language Should I Learn? Best language to learn (for a solo web designer looking to program) Is there a general guideline of which dynamic programming language to choose to start with?
As a web programmer do I need to learn any more languages to enhance my career? I work in a .NET environment and am good at C#, but have zero skill in VB. For client side scripting I use javascript, jQuery and PrototypeJS. Should I learn any more languages or do you think that what I know is enough for web programming?
1- Can I select programming language in the exam or I will be forced to learn both VB and C#?2- Does MS consider testking as cheating.2- Why testking is considered cheating in some communities? what is the difference between testking and practice exams.
A bit of background: I am familiar with PHP and Java, did some C, C++ and Lisp (gasp!) back in programming classes but never used them too much. So, I've been wanting to step out of PHP a bit for web development. I have a few reasons for this (in no particular order): there's a lot of amateurish code(rs) in PHP, which somehow makes me look bad; I am unhappy with a few quirks in the language; and I really want to try something new. Here are the options I've been looking at:
Python and Ruby (on Rails): They both seem nice, but it looks like I'll have some difficulty finding webhosts that run these. And it appears that Python scripts aren't as portable as PHP (correct me if I am wrong).SP.NET: I have an issue with Microsoft software kind of existing in their own realm. I mean, MS has some really good tools for developers and if you stay within those tools your life is easy. But if you deviate just a bit out of it, you are on your own. And oh, it's not opensource.
So what do you recommend? And if I go with Python (it's tempting), should I use a framework like Django or web2py or should I go down and dirty with the basics (same thing with ASP.NET and MVC)?
EDIT: What I don't like about PHP:
No namespaces Implicit type conversions can cause problems Many silent errors No unicode support Slow ....
Yesterday my lecturer who's currently teaching us ASP.NET (more like flying through it) introduced us to LINQHowever he uses VB for the back end programming, and I just can't understand VB. I am more of a C# person, since my first real programming language was Java and that is close to C# than it is to VB. Here is the code that we had to type in VB:
programming option?Our Web application could have 60000 database requests/second or more in future.Which is better: MS-SQL or MySQL or other?Which is better: Asp.net, PHP, JSP or other?What kind of webhosting is reliable for auto-scaling?Any good webhosters or hosting plans?
but I am rather confused about what to invest in. I heard that server-side code translates into client-side code. So, if you have an .aspx file, it will be converted to HTML/CSS/JavaScript. I have experience with the latter three technologies put into a rather dull text file and rendered by a web browser. My question is how much HTML/CSS/Javascript coding would I have to do when server-side programming? In other words, can someone using ASP.NET program purely on the server side and not bother to write for the client side? Of course, I don't care about server-side being translated into client-side, but I am wondering if client-side programming needs to be done explicitly and to what degree.
I am developing a multi language website. language change is working very well on master page. from master page I am storing session to use in contant pages.
when I am trying to change text (<p>.....<P>) in content page, thats not working.
Here is the thing. I have an aspx page with NO master page. I have two resource files with the same name (and specifying the language) in the App_LocalResources folder. If I do something like text="<%$ Resources:lblUser %> works fine. What I do to test it is change the browser's selected language.
But, if I do the same in a MasterPage or in a Page that is inside a MasterPage... when changing the Browser's language and refreshing... I'm still getting the default language...
I've been reading some threads about this but the situation was a little bit different.
I have created a web application and generated local resources. Its working when user select language from browser. But what i want is, when user select language from dropdown list, i want to change the pages according to selected language. i can save user selected language in a session. then how should I change/assign local resource file to web page?
I'm creating a website that is going to be dual language, so it will have a german face and an english face and the user can swich between the two versions.
I would like to create web site in ASP.NET MVC3 in english language and Turkish language. I would like to know what care do i need to take before designing web site?
when i test this page http://www.catalogues4u.com.au/ViewCategory.aspx?catID=119 im getting the above error. to replicate this issue visit the above page in ie7 and you will get the prompt.
I used Castle Windsor before and had this routine that fired the certain method of all classes that implement a certain interface.If I recall correctly, the interface was IBootStrapTask and only had an excecute method. Then, for instance, I'd place all my route registrations in one of these, and know it get fired on application startup.Have to admit I did not understand the code to well, so I'm even more unsure how can I do this. I'm using structure map now. (still knowing very little about it)
I have a site in which I have defined my Start up page, say Sample.aspx. After deployment in server named "Siteserver, Now whenever I open link [URL]. Now, my question is, if I have more than one page like Sample1.aspx and Sample2.aspx and I want to open [URL] directly, how can I do this. It is redirecting again to Sample.aspx. How can I achieve this.
I know that when a .NET web application first starts, it will be slow on first access. For that reason, I created a 'keep alive' page in the application that is requested every 8 minutes or so by a scheduled process. I hoped that that would be sufficient to prevent the application from 'unloading' and thus suffer from this initial long startup time again and again.
I can see in my logs that the 'keep alive' page is indeed triggered every 8 minutes, 24 hours a day. But when I actively start working in the application after some time, eg. the following day, I still have to wait a while for it to start up. Once the first page is loaded, all is fine again.
I have around 10 "Excute SQL Task" events in sequence. Each Task uses the same two date parameters, which are declared at the top of each script. Is there a way to set these two at the start of the process instead of within each sql script?
