I am following Martijn Boland's 'Paging with ASP.NET MVC'. And while helpful it has raised a couple of issues I don't understand.

I've heard or read somewhere (can't recall where) that the spark view engine supports the notion of defining custom html tags. I would like to use this for rounded corners. Which in our HTML consist out of 6 different div's wrapped around the actual content. If I could replace this with or something like that it would make things much m...
I have a list of data that i have in a view from an asp.net mvc application. It's a list of stock and I have two images (a plus and a minus) on the end of each row which will allow me to increase or decrease stock quantity. It works fine at present with a call to the mvc action but since the list is long I want to use jQuery and AJAX to ...
Hi folks, I'm playing around with some Dependency Injection (StructureMap) with my ASP.NET MVC application. Works great. Becuase StructureMap is using DI via the most gready constructor (I hope I got that concept named right), I'm under the impression that it creates an instance of an object for each argument, in the most gready constr...

Hi All, I suspect that this question may have been asked before, but I couldn't find it. I would like to know what the biggest sites out there using ASP.NET MVC at the moment are. StackOverflow, obviously - but I haven't heard about many others yet. Are there any other 'big' ones? Thanks ...
Hi, I have around 4 years experience of ASP.NET & SQL Server (only web forms). I have a little knowledge of Ruby on Rails and have developed one very small 2-3 pages application in ASP.NET MVC in my job. Now I and one of my friend ( same experience like me) are willing to gain more experience of ASP.NET MVC. For that purpose we have thou...
Hi folks, Notice how StackOverflow displays some nice Status Bar message based on your activity? (That orange bar at the top page) I'm hoping to do the same but I'm not sure how. Now I know how to display validation errors to the UI using ASP.NET MVC 1.0 ... that's not too hard. But if i want to show a status bar thingy (not sure what...

Hi Being fairly new to the MVC Framework, I am trying to establish a custom Membership provider which can support the concept of Groups or departments. I need to assign each user to belong to one (and only one) of several groups - each group (and its members) can only view records which belong to it - identified by the GroupId. I need...
In my Web forms applications I had been wiring my Asp.net membership register controls event "OnCreatingUser" to do my checks for whether the user name or email exits or if the user name is appropriate. What is the equivalent method in Mvc and how is it used? Here is part of my method from a web forms application. public void cuwRegis...

I'm trying to pass a custom shaped class to a view, but I'm having a little trouble. This is the error I'm getting. Cannot implicitly convert type 'System.Linq.IQueryable' to 'Project.Models.TaskTimeLine'. An explicit conversion exists (are you missing a cast?) This is the first time I've added a list to a class, and trying to pass on...

We have a fist MVC application and I am wandering what special considerations there. In the regular web forms applications we pretty much just wrap events on code behind pages with try catch blocks. But it seems less clear with mvc as far as helpers, controllers, routes, etc. Where should I make sure there is logging. ...
Essentially, the question is in the title. I have a ASP.NET MVC application, and I need to get and use the name of the view in the master page. For example, I may want to include a "viewname".js in the header of every page or use it in RenderAction call. Of course, I can create asp:ContentPlaceHolder in the head section of master page,...
