Our system consists of a self-hosted (non-IIS) WCF service and an Asp.net website which hosts a Silverlight application. The application is supposed to do pretty much everything, the website is just a "shell" in this case. We have a hard time figuring out how to solve user authentication securely. To my knowledge, Silverlight can not h...

I made a fairly large social network type website and used nothing but inline SQL Statements to access the database (I was new to the language so back off!) Are there any performance issues when doing it this way as opposed to using a massive XSD DataSet file to handle all the queries? Or is this just bad design? Thanks! ...
hi I've started learning data source controls To my understanding, the only benefits of using data source controls instead of using regular data binding are the following: you don’t have to write data access logic (thus you don’t have to create SqlCommand, SqlConnection etc, and you also don’t have to create Datareader or DataSet) y...

The following code: <script type="text/javascript"> $("body").append('<div id="test"><p>Hello</p></div>'); </script> Works fine in normal pages, but when the body is in the master page and I put this same code in the Master page - nothing happens!
