Using abstract classes in a WCF service

  • July 19th, 2010
  • Posted in ASP.NET

So while this isn’t a SharePoint thing, it is something I’ve come across while developing WCF services for a solution that will ultimately tie in with SharePoint, so I figured I would put this out there anyway. Basically here is the scenario – you have a WCF service, and that service has a method that [ READ MORE ]

Embedding JavaScript files into your DLL’s

This isn’t strictly related to SharePoint development, as you can do this with any ASP.NET page, but basically the theory here is that you can avoid the need to deploy files (such as JavaScripts, images, CSS sheets, whatever) to your sites by embedding them within your DLL’s. The reason I have been looking at this [ READ MORE ]

AJAX UpdatePanel and scrolling DIV tags – keep scroll position on post back

  • July 31st, 2008
  • Posted in ASP.NET

I gotta say that I am pretty proud of the fact that I got this one to work, possibly not the cleanest solution to the problem but it works pretty well. The problem was that we have a custom ASP.NET control that uses an UpdatePanel, which has a DIV tag inside of it that scrolls [ READ MORE ]

Extending the ASP.NET TreeView control

  • July 22nd, 2008
  • Posted in ASP.NET

This is something that is very cool once you have a play around with it. The scenario we had was we were using a TreeView control to create a menu for the user, and we needed to have a JavaScript run when a user checks a checkbox in the nodes. The JavaScript needed a particular [ READ MORE ]

Postback from TreeView check boxes

  • April 21st, 2008

The ASP.NET TreeView control is a handy thing in plenty of places in ASP.NET applications, but when I went to use one in a project I am working on, I discovered that there is no AutoPostback property for the checkboxes that are provided, and considering I am using my TreeView in an UpdatePanel this was [ READ MORE ]

Trigger an UpdatePanel from outside the control

  • April 17th, 2008
  • Posted in ASP.NET

I have been working on a control that is using some AJAX stuff, which is a bit new to me because I have avoided AJAX for a few reasons in the past. Anyway once you get into it, the controls that MS have added to the .NET framework make it so very very easy to [ READ MORE ]

Calling PostBack from a pop up window

  • April 2nd, 2008
  • Posted in ASP.NET

The scenario for today’s blog post is pretty simple. I have a page that is displaying some data, and it uses a pop-up window to add data to the source, so when the pop up has added the data it needs to close itself and then refresh the parent window. It’s not really a difficult [ READ MORE ]

Creating custom configuration sections

  • March 26th, 2008
  • Posted in ASP.NET

When you have a web.config file that has a ridiculously long list of AppSettings you might want to consider this one – custom configuration sections. Basically by doing this you can create new sections in a config file that will allow you to group your settings in a more sensible way, and the cool bit [ READ MORE ]

Finding everything that isn’t a word in a regular expression

  • March 7th, 2008
  • Posted in ASP.NET

This might sound like a pretty basic thing to do, but I found myself hitting Google up for an answer to this one and I thought it was worth sharing. Most people who know some basic things to do with regular expressions will know that you can find all the words in a string by [ READ MORE ]
