I'm serving up a site's CSS content via an ASP.NET MVC's Controller + Action. The css "file" appears to deliver correctly down the wire but only IE will apply it. Other browsers (Firefox, Opera, Chrome) ignore the CSS file and render the page without styling. IE8 works perfectly. This is the essential code that I'm using to return the C...
For several months I've been working on a customer site building a web site using ASP.NET MVC with C#, SQL Server 2005, ADO.NET Entity Framework, JQuery and some ESRI web APIs and geodatabases. The test server is running IIS6 on Windows Server 2003. Over this time I've seen some weird things that have caused a lot of rework: JavaScript...

I've implemented custom authentication in ASP.NET MVC. If a valid user tries to login, I set the HttpContext.User = user in the Logon method of the AccountController. But it remains there for only that request. How can I set it for the session? I used an alternative, set HttpContext.Session["CurrentUser"] = user. If I want to see if the...

I am trying to write a simple library for MVC2 projects that takes care of user login, e-mail validation, password recovery, etc. Since some of these steps involve user interaction, I need to have Views and Controllers in that project. In MVC2 Preview 2, one could do this by abusing areas (at least, it seems) since they were implemente...

Hey :) I am quite new to ASP.NET MVC and MVC in general. Moving from the old school "spaghetti" design practices to WebForms was a big change, but this seems bigger (but better) in my mind. I have some questions regarding data specific tasks. For the sake of simplicity, say I have a database table called PIN with the column structur...
Besides ASP.NET MVC's obvious conventions, what libraries do you take advantage of that minimize boot strapping, mapping objects, data access and such? I want to spend more energy developing domain logic as opposed to dealing with the details of object persistence (for example). I have used StructureMap and NHibernate in the past to gr...
Hello, I have ASP.NET MVC 1.0 and Entity Framework v1 application. By default, content submitted by user is validated for malicious input. (See here). HTML encoding user submitted data, prevents JavaScript injection attacks. Entity Framework internally uses parameterized SQL which will stop sql injection. Is this sufficient ? What e...
