Published 5/6/2008 by Ira in Visual Studio | Database | SQL
Tags: , ,

Tags: , , , ,

Tags: , ,
So I was stuck in a scenario where I needed to have multiple DetailsViews run an update command at the same time. I thought through it in my head saying to myself, "How do I click two update buttons at once?". Wouldn't it be nice if I could have a single button click event and have b... [More]

Tags:
Have you ever worked on a project that had a ton of Javascript in it? Not only that, but let me add that the project also made no good use of a Javascript framework.
