Peter Vogel prepares to try out the new jQuery templating/databinding functionality to create a simple AJAX-enabled page that allows the user to select a customer and retrieve from a Web service all the orders associated with that customer.
Peter Vogel reviews the decision that organizations will have to make in choosing between Silverlight and ASP.NET.
Peter Vogel returns to encrypting web.config files in subfolders and encrypting non-standard sections. Sort of everything you wanted to know about encrypting the web.config file but were afraid someone would tell you.
With the new year upon us, Peter Vogel looks back at some of the big changes and advancements in ASP.NET in 2010.
If you're trying to decide whether to use Crystal Reports or SQL Server Reporting Services with ASP.NET, you can rest assured that there is no bad choice.
Peter moves beyond the basics of setting up a ListView to add databound controls, control headers and footers and turn on updating.
The ListView is the most powerful of the DataView controls and the hardest to work with. Here's how to minimize the pain while getting all the benefits.
Peter completes his series on integrating AJAX and a client-side control by implementing it in ASP.NET MVC. And he draws some conclusions on client-side development in ASP.NET, ASP.NET MVC, and in the world at large.
Peter moves ahead with integrating a sophisticated client-side JavaScript control but this time, he's using WCF to implement his Web services. Along the way, though, he gets ASMX services to work.
Peter continues exploring incorporating client-side JavaScript controls into ASP.NET applications -- and runs into what appears to be a brick wall when he tries to implement updates.
If you're going to work with AJAX you should be, at least, considering using "pure" client-side code to create your UI. Peter looks at a popular (and free) JavaScript grid.
Peter Vogel abandons ASP.NET (mostly) to discuss how to better debug programs.
Microsoft and the jQuery team's announcements about the new data-driven plugins for jQuery have Peter all excited. He describes the plugins and what he's going to be doing with them in upcoming columns.
Peter returns to last week's topic to go beyond the basics of how to add controls to a page to fully integrate it into your Page's lifecycle.
There are, at least, six ways to have controls magically appear on a page at runtime. Just don't add it directly to the Page.
