(anyone? why?) currently ActionLink renders the link as More about vouchers but they would like it to be More about vouchers. Does anyone know how to easily do this without constructing my o...

I saw KIGG doing the same "but its class diagram is complicated a little, at lea...
Hi, I often read and feel that .NET Framework has much less libraries to use in project than available in Java world. Even if some ports exists, a lot of them are not at the full speed/active. One example is Apache NFOP. It has not been updated for a while. Another is NHibernate - it is very active but does miss a lot of features that ...

I'm a solo developer looking into a tool such as MSBuild/NAnt to improve my build process. My project files are starting to get messy with post-build events and there are analysis tools I'd like to run some times and not others.

When writing WinForms application with proper separation between View- and Controller/Presenter-functionality, I often find myself writing code like this: public void class SomeView:Form{ private void loadFileButton_Click(object sender, EventArgs e) { _loadFileAction.Execute(this); } } public void class LoadFileAction:Action{...

Here's what this chunk of code does: Pulls back the 6 most recent members and displays a gallery on the home page -- photo, age and location. My struggle here is whether I should be referencing anything in the SP/DAL method that says "gallery". The data layer only cares about the data, it shouldn't even know a gallery exists. So my in...

Both options have many references and resources, but it seems that Facebook itself was written in PHP, not .NET. So does PHP or .NET have bett...
I am trying to create a series of UserControls that all inherit from a custom UserControl object. One of the key behaviors I want to implement is the ability to dynamically resize all of the controls to fit the control size. In order to do this, I need to get the initial width and height of the control to compare it to the resized dime...
Hello, I have a Windows .NET application and one of the forms has a WebBrowser control, an OK button and a Cancel button. The WebBrowser control hosts a TextArea html element, so I can write inside.
