It’s not The Long and Winding Road (Flash to HTML)

Yesterday I did a small job for a company that involved converting a Flash Image Gallery to HTML+jQuery. I used to think Steve Jobs was a Day Tripper when he said they would not support Flash on the iPad, don’t Ask Me Why but I now agree with him and I feel fine. I don’t [...]

EF Hierarchies with jQuery Templates

In one of my spontaneous tweets this weekend I was praising the combination of jQuery, jQuery Templates, WCF Data Services and EntityFramework. Not that unusual for me really as they are all technologies that I harp on about frequently This last week though I had the opportunity to utilize a part of jQuery Templates that [...]

Searching and Parsing a WordPress Blog using C#

On the project I have been working on since January this year (it’s due to go live May 1) one of the requirements was a WordPress Blog that integrated in to the site. It also called for a global search that searched both the site content and the blog and then returned all the results [...]

Alternating rows with jQuery templates

Back at the beginning of January I blogged about using the {{if}}, {{else}} and {{/if}} tags (you can read that post here) and at that time I was a little stumped as to how to do alternating row formatting. Maybe it was me being particularly dense on that day or maybe for some reason I [...]

Fiddling saved my bacon.

Do you ever have those days when you are writing code and everything is going great and then all of a sudden some little thing crops up and before you know it you have lost a half day trying to figure out one little thing? Well today was one of those days for me. It [...]

OData, O How I Love Thee

But let’s not stop at OData, lets also give thanks where thanks is due to the likes of WCF Data Services, EntityFramework, jQuery, jqGrid and of course LINQ. Hallelujah, this is a lethal combination when it comes to web development. The ease with which a solid solution can be developed using the above technology cannot [...]

Optimise your Ajax – Script Combining

As of the .NET Framework 3.5 SP1 Microsoft has lovingly provided us with script combining right out of the box. What is this script combining all about I hear some of you say? Take a look at the YSlow Statistics and Firebug Net trace below in Firefox: YSlow Statistics Firebug Net Trace Now this is [...]
