by Ira 4/14/2008 6:39:00 PM

Update Multiple DataBound DetailsViews With a Single Event

by Ira 3/27/2008 8:26:00 PM

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]

Implementing Interfaces: ICloneable and IComparable

by Ira 3/4/2008 5:56:00 PM

A friend of mine was showing me about some common interfaces and some good use cases for them the other day.

Creating a Simple Site Wide User Notification Pattern

by Ira 2/27/2008 6:17:00 PM

When creating websites, it seems that one problem I always run into is how to gracefully notify the user of errors or display messages to them. In most of my sites I use master pages, so I thought it would be pretty sweet to integrate a messaging pattern into my master pages. I also wanted a quick... [More]
