I've been working with ASP.NET MVC and Javascript/jQuery a lot lately and I seem to be heading in a direction where I'm always needing to pass some dynamic value "to" my javascript. When the script is right in the page, I've done something like this: var isEditable = <%=ViewData["editable"]%> I like how this is quick & easy and just l...
Hello, I'm designing a database application which stores simple contact information (First/Last Name etc.) and I also have to store phone numbers. Besides phone numbers I have to store what they are for (mobile, business etc.) and possibly an additional comment for each. My first approach was to normalize and keep the phone numbers in ...
We are building a fairly large HR application in ASP.NET MVC, and so far our controllers are becoming quite large. For example, we have an Employee controller, and all employee views are included (Personal info, employee deductions, dependents, etc). Each of these views might have multiple actions or subviews (e.g. CRUD). Each action ...
I am not sure if I should do this any different with MVC, but I am curious what is the recommended approach for adding extra info to a ASP.NET User account when using the Membership provider? Also how to associate this use with other entities. Normally I don't bother with the profiles, and prefer to add extra information to a table that...
I will designing a couple of web applications shortly. They will probably be done in asp.net mvc. In my existing web apps, done in delphi, the data access layer is seperated out into a completely separate application, sometimes running on a different server.

UPDATE: looks like I've misunderstood what TempData is for and what it isn't. It definitively shouldn't be used to "keep certain session-wide data" as I asked initially (see ASP.NET MVC TempData Is Really RedirectData why). I've modified the question accordingly. Has anyone used CookieTempDataProvider for TempData storage? Are there any...

Tthe same data may exist in both systems, so we much search both. What is the most efficient way (speed is very important) to search both api's at the same time and merge the r...
In asp.net MVC dependancy injection with controllers is simple and straightforward. Now, I'd like to remove most of the logic from views by using helpers. The problem is that these helpers use some of the objects that are injected. Let me write an example: public interface ISessionData { List<string> IdList {get;} } public MyContro...
I know that this is probably something easy to implement, but I am having a bit of trouble finding an answer. Similar to how Stackoverflow allows you to continue to drill down into questions using tags, I am trying to implement the same. So, I have created a list of 'tags' on my MVC page that looks like this: <%For Each item As myItem...

Url.Action found in MVC is member of what classes? VS2008 cannot find it and keeps offering me just System.Security.Policy to import.
