Hi All I've been reading Scott Gu's post on code first design with ASP.Net MVC 2.0 and EF4 here: http://weblogs.asp.net/scottgu/archive/2010/07/16/code-first-development-with-entity-framework-4.aspx In the post he uses the SQL CE4 database for development and 'seeds' test data. My question is related to testing. It is widely regar...
I'm creating a page that has some dynamically generated images built from data that comes from web services. The image generation takes a fair amount of time due to the time involved in hitting the web services, so I need to do some caching. One option would be to use the OutputCache parameter to cache the images, but I don't like forci...

I have a new ASP.NET MVC project that has two requirements that require using the Office Interop DLLs to generate Excel spreadsheet files in Excel 2003 format by combining several template files into a multi-sheet workbook and to parse these files once filled in. The files we parse may come back in Excel 2003, 2007 or 2010 format (I beli...
This is something that has been pulling at me for a while. Consider a (MVC type) web application with an ORM (e.g. Nhiberate) as the data access layer. On one hand - the OOP/Rich domain model hand - I feel I should be passing around (references to) the real objects I am talking about. On the other hand - the DB/Web App hand - I feel ...

I'm having difficulty getting the Model Binder to work. I thought it was the jQuery, so I asked this question, but after further investigation, I can see that the jQuery is indeed sending the parameter to the server. That's the reason I'm asking a new question - this is no longer a jQuery issue, as I originally thought. Background: Wha...
Hello, As it's recommended, Javascript must be kept in a physically separate file (to be unobtrusive). So how do I access a particular element in particular page? should I detect those elements by id? that would mean 2 elements can't have the same id even if they are not located in the same page. Well, for instance, using the Html help...

The idea is to make it very simple and targeted when you go to do model binding to the View. Here is a good example: Rendering and Binding Drop Down Lists using ...

I have written these for tests in the View: <%= Html.Encode(Model.Information) %> -- <%= Html.Label("Information") %> -- <%= Html.LabelFor(m => m....
I'm trying to learn ASP.NET MVC and your first reaction might be to tell me I don't need to learn all the Ajax stuff to learn MVC. Fine, I get it. But I am not very confident if I don't know what's going on around me, i.e. in the environment surrounding my code. Since my goal is to learn ASP.NET MVC, I first tried some examples, watched...

I'm very new to .Net C# and I really don't have a clue as to what I'm doing wrong. I have a LinqToSql DataContext I'm drawing distinct results from, but I'm not sure how to properly output the results in my view.
