Is there a way to scroll or jump down a page after rendering it? Specifically, in my controller action, there are some situations where I'll want to send the user to a particular place on the page. If it were just a link from another page, I'd probably use a URI fragment identifier - "http://blorg.com/page#id" - but this needs to be dy...

Since this process most likely won't finish before my view is loaded I want to move it to a secondary thread like I have seen in many examples including the seismicxml example on the apple site. The flow of my application is as follows. I have a table view which cells can be clicked t...
Hi, I know I can create a separate thread in cocoa touch with the following code: [NSThread detachNewThreadSelector:@selector(getEarthquakeData) toTarget:self withObject:nil]; How to go back to the process of my primary thread?

I currently use CodeIgniter as my framework of choice when using PHP. One of the things I am wrestling with is the idea of a "page" and how to represent that properly within MVC. To my knowledge, CodeIgniter has a front controller that delegates to page controllers. So in my thinking, each page would have it's own controller. But all...

I am trying to get the url as a string in another class...
Following the NerdDinners example, I am interested in creating a strongly typed Master Page. In order to achieve this, I use a base controller which retrieves the data for the master page. All other controllers inherit this class. Similarly, I have ViewModels for the master page and any other views. The view ViewModel classes inherit fro...
Hello. I have a base controller abstract class, which my other controllers inherit. This class needs to load a local xml file in order to create some buttons for the master page. Given that the ControllerContext is null at this stage, what is the best practice for loading the file? (When running on the webserver, I get the following erro...

I'm trying to understand the difference between using a UINavigationController inside a Nib (via the library window) and subclassing the UINavigationController.

We know that behind the scenes, the ASP.NET MVC framework will use reflection to determine what controllers/actions are available to be executed, based on which classes derive from System.Web.Mvc.Controller and, of those classes, which methods return an ActionResult object. To my question - is it possible to access this list of control...

I want the update view to print out the action name "create" when the create action renders it and print out the word "update" when the update action renders it. The problem is render ...
Dont know if you allowed to ask this sort of thing here... but as they say easier to ask for forgiveness rather than permission. I have dipped my toe into "giving back to the community" and would like people's opinion on the project. In short it is a colleciton of generic crud controller and repository classes and interfaces to automat...
