It appears that the jQuery-based version of ASP.NET MVC2 form validation didn't make it into the final release. This is a bit unfortunate. First off, I can't figure out whether the version that did make it into the final release has an extension point - akin to an "onvalidate" event to which I can attach my own code... For instance, I w...
I'm a .net developer so pardon me for not knowing anything about PHP. I read some things on the net but I can't say how it compares to Asp.net MVC in terms of automated testing. I tend to think that PHP is very much like classic ASP except that it's OOP (is it?). In order to improve its testability you have to follow certain development...

I have a database that stores images which can be access via a primary key ID (vomit, I know, but it's out of my control). I have a pretty standard Asp .net Mvc Controller that reads the database and if a row is found in the database it returns the image bytes as a FileResult. If a row is not found, I have a custom action result that se...
so write now my Url looks like domain.com\MyAction?var1=x&var2=y&var3=z. Now, in order to make it more seo and user friendly, I want to abandon that way of writing and adopt this kind of url - doman.com\MyAction\x\y\z (obviously order matters now, which didn't matter in the previous url) What is the best way to do this? Currently: ...

I have an application that writes text onto images using system.drawing (C#). I am using specific fonts to do this. Since I can't rely on my shared hosting servers to have all the custom fonts I may need (and since the list of fonts is likely to grow), how can I manage the fonts used for my application? Could I include .ttf files in m...

I am in the process of creating tabbed navigation where the route location can vary. The parameter used to render the tabs should be based on the presently viewed data (which when it is a user, may not be the logged in user). In the example image this is a user. Therefore, if I am looking at Andrew Steele then the links should be contex...
suppose I have 3 categories 1, 2, 3 named fruit, vegetable and grain. Right now I have domain.com/category/1 which would take me to fruit's page and so on... Now I would like to domain.com/category/fruit to take me to fruit's page because that looks nicer and categories are very few like 3 or 4 max... so I don't plan on looking at dat...

How do you usually name localizable resource strings in your RESX files? I used to do it manually, taking special care about resource naming and usually end up with something along these lines UsernamePasswordLogonFailure But with the new Resharper there is a functionality that detects and picks up string literals in code and gives yo...

I'm writing a web app using ASP.NET MVC 2 and picked NHibernate as my ORM. I basically learned my basics from watching the Summer of NHibernate series, and have adopted the authors session per request strategy for managing a session (Ep 13). Things seem to work well, but I'm concerned about whether this is a functional real world appro...

I'm displaying errors on my form with the use of <%= Html.ValidationSummary("Please review the errors below") %> My domain object inherits from a base class and I am finding that the base class data annotation properties are being displayed at the bottom of the list. This goes against the order in which they appear in my form. Is the...
I'm having some problems with Html.Encode and users wanting to use special characters. Firstly the characters are replaced by the html codes and so are not displayed properly. And then, if the text is later edited and re-submitted, an exception is thrown when these html codes are re-submitted. Given that this is an intranet site and the...
