I'm working on a C#/ASP.NET web application, and I have a number of situations where I need to do locking. Ideally, I want the locks to act independently, since they have nothing to do with each other.

I'm building a public website which has its own domain name with pop/smtp mail services. I'm considering giving users the option to update their data via email - something similar to the functionality found in Flickr or Blogger where you email posts to a special email address. The email data is then processed and stored in the underlying...

This is probably explained more easily with an example. I'm trying to find a way of turning a relative URL, e.g. "/Foo.aspx" or "~/Foo.aspx" into a full URL, e.g. http://localhost/Foo.aspx. That way when I deploy to test or stage, where the domain under which the site runs is different, I will get http://test/Foo.aspx and http://stage/Fo...

I first got an error usign the code below, explaining that "DataGridLinkButton' must be placed inside a form tag with runat=server." Now I've tried setting AllowSorting to false, as well as removing the sort expression from each column, with the same error. Then I tried creating a new, plain, DataGrid, with the same data source, but no...

I'm working with ASP.NET 3.5. I have a list box that users must add items to (I've written the code for this). My requirement is that at least one item must be added to the listbox or they cannot submit the form. I have several other validators on the page and they all write to a ValidationSummary control. I would like this listbox valid...

I am rapidly starting to learn that this takes consideration (this is all new to me!) :) I basically have a StyledWindow control, which is essentially a glorified Panel with ability to do other bits (like add borders etc)...
Title says it all. I've got an angry boss that will beat me down if I waste another day on this :-P Many karma points to the ajax guru who can solve my dilemma. But more detail: I want to have an AccordionPane that grabs a bunch of links from an XML source and populate itself from said source. ...

Sometimes when we execute multiple searches successively the 2nd or 3rd search will sometimes return results from the first set of search criteria. Example: our first search we do a look up on ...

I'm assuming that the subdirectories map to controllers, and the controllers act on the views contained within their subdirectories. Is there an emerging expectation of what types of views are contain...
