I am trying to use ASP.NET Server Controls (ASP.TextBox etc) with MVC (to take advantage of the validation power, designer support etc). How can I shoehorn this into MVC architecture? For example, how can my button.click route to the controller or how can the data inside my server controllers be accessed via viewPage? Can point me to an...

Hello there, After reading and installing the application on the post at "Editing a variable-length list of items in ASP.NET MVC by Steve, I find it really useful. On the other hand, there was something missing on the "Add another item" ajax link because it does not save the state of the non-submitted records. When I click on the link a...

All our text was added to the site using labels so that resource files could be automatically built in the future using the tool in Visual Studio. I loved the idea which Facebook introduced encouraging the community to self-translate. I wonder if anyone...

Lets say I'm converting a whole bunch of content pages - dumb HTML - over to MVC model. I'd want to stick all the plain HTML files in a directory and 'find' them based on a controller. This kind of appears to be what the 'HomeController' in the standard ASP.NET-MVC is doing, but I have to explicitly add each page. [HandleError] pu...
I'm just getting into ASP.NET MVC and was a little confused in the sample app why 'HomeController' is called 'HomeController'. It seems to be a better name would be 'DefaultController' or 'ContentController'. Its really a little misleading because its name implies that its got something to do with controlling the homepage, but it reall...
