When you start an ASP.NET MVC project in Visual Studio 2008, you get a fully loaded site template, including login forms and the like. In the default form to login, you will find this in the markup... <%= Html.CheckBox("rememberMe") %> When you view the source in the browser, you will see that this renders to... <input id="rememberM...
I have a ASP.Net MVC JsonResult function in which I want to return the contents of a PartialView (The content has to be loaded using Ajax, and for some reason I can't return a PartialViewResult). To render the PartialView I need the ViewContext object. How do you get the current ViewContext object within an Action method? I don't even ...

I have a strongly-typed view that receives a Design model for its rendering. My Design class (Entity) has a many-to-one relationship to a Designer (i.e. 1 Designer can have 1 or more Designs). When trying to use the following code, I get an NullReferenceException for the Design.Designer relationship. Obviously I'm doing something wron...
I need a WCF service to sit on top of ASPNET membership and allow me to call all the methods of ASPNET membership such as validateUser, createUser etc. I need this becasue I have out-of-firewall apps that need to access a single central ASPNET membership database.

I've got a LINQ to SQL object, and I want to group the selected data and then pass it into a view. What's the correct way of doing this? I'm sure I need to group the data when I select it rather than grouping it in the view, as this will result in about 200 rather 50000 rows I need to pass into my view. Are there any good examples of ...

At the moment, i got quite badly fashioned view model. Classes looks like this=> public class AccountActionsForm { public Reader Reader { get; set; } //something... } Problem is that Reader type comes from domain model (violation of SRP). Basically, i'm looking for design tips (i.e. is it a good idea to spli...
I am running out of ideas here. Maybe you can advice me what pattern or method(s) to use. User should be able to log in and change the appearance only for his/her profile. The difference (AFAIK) with personalization is that personalized layout are seen only for the editor (him-/herself). The difference between skinning, I guess, is that...

I have set up a ruleset in my configuration file which has two validators, one of which is a built-in NotNullValidator, the other of which is a custom validator.

I'm new to MVC, so please bear with me. :-) I've got a strongly typed "Story" View. This View (story) can have Comments. I've created two Views (not partials) for my Comments controller "ListStoryComments" and "CreateStoryComment", which do what their names imply. These Views are included in the Story View using RenderAction, e.g.: <...
