Previously, I would typically use the "play" button to debug my app, then just stage the files when everything was working, assuming that the last time I hit the "play" button, it had fully compiled the app. Anyhow, I'm...

I don't know if this has been done or if someone has come up with a better idea but I was wondering is there a way anyone knows of to "inject" a logger into an application such that it passiv...
I am watching the ASP.NET learn video on http://www.asp.net/learn/3.5-videos/video-13.aspx and it is showing you can place controls on a page using Absolute positioning.
