Me and Amr Elsehemy are working together in something and he requested a feature in some APIs I built. In fact he liked the Rob Conery's PagedList that had been modified by Troy Goode. He used it on his jBlogMVC post series about building Blog Engine using MVC.
That was pretty simple and I noticed something missing on the
PagedList that I wished to add! What about sorting. I mean build a
PagedList that is sorted. So I made slight changes to the enhanced PagedList made by Troy to support sorting.
Prerequisites:
It is required that you refer to Rob Conery's PagedList and the modified version by Troy Goode before you proceed in order to understand how this PagedList is useful and helpful with MVC and LINQ to SQL as well as LINQ to Entities.

At the end of the last month (September 2008) Microsoft announced that it will be shipping jQuery with Visual Studio going forward. It was a great news for all ASP.NET developers who are jQuery
fans as well as jQuery and ASP.NET AJAX folks like me. Before and after
that, there were many posts made around the same subject. So I decided to build a simple sample cloning one of the famous ASP.NET AJAX Control Toolkit control "CollapsiblePanelExtender".
I came up with jQueryCollapsiblePanelExtender. Read the following 2 posts for more details:

On part 1 and part 2 I explored how to apply 2 different inheritance models (TPH & TPT) in Entity Framework.
In this part I'm going to demonstrate associations between 2 base
entities. And how to filter end properties to return specific type (sub
entity).

In the previous part I discussed Table-per-Hierarchy Inheritance, in this part I'll go through Table-per-Type Inheritance model. There is a video demonstrating this model if you wish to watch. Here I'll update my previous sample with new entities that demonstrate the Table-per-Type Inheritance model. For the differences between 2 models and definitions return to 1st part.

In this multi parts series I'll explore how to build inheritance with Entity Framework showing 2 different approaches of inheritance in Entity Framework.
Beside that I'll show how to build simple association between 2
entities and show how to provide custom code to retrieve other parts of
the relation when inheritance is applied.
My plan not to exceed
3 parts as the subject is not that huge, it is just the demonstration
with screen shots that will make the post large that is why I divided
it to multi part. I am not good at screen casts beside I don't have a
software license to produce one.

Few weeks ago Dave started the Advanced ASP.NET AJAX Server Controls book giveaway contest. And yesterday he announced that the control is almost completed, but the contest door is still open. So I thought to grape the bits and start testing it and build a simple sample. [View Demo]
The
sample that I am going to demonstrate here will use ASP.NET Create User
Wizard control with UserName Availability Validator. In this sample
I'll show the important properties of this control as well as the
current issues exist.
Read more on this demo.
Amr Elsehemey started to blog about ASP.NET MVC. He picked up a good subject to blog about; Building ASP.NET MVC Blog Engine using ASP.NET MVC and jQuery, he named it "jBlogMvc"
Yesterday he posted his first post in the series, and myself I am
waiting for the rest of the series as for it is going to be very
interesting, because I have couple of ideas in mind.
He is going
to explore the code and posting samples as he developing this simple
blog engine. We have been talking about this subject for few days now,
and really he has some cool ideas to present. Keep tuned with Amr, I am sure he is going to amuse us with some kicking posts just as he did in his Design Time Support post series.
I've been worked with localization and globalization for a while now.
During that period I faced issues and learned many things about the
subject. Here I am going to share some of my own ideas and tips to
avoid falling in certain issues. It worth to mention that I am talking
from GUI point of view and not Application Data point of view.

Last year, Matt posted a cool post about How To: Use the HoverMenuExtender for GridView RowCommands. Last month I got an e-mail from Justin Riggs, he was trying to combine to things. The usage of HoverMenuExtender as described in Matt's post, and the Master\Detail GridView with CollapsiblePanelExtender I posted about few months ago.
I thought to make a repost with few modifications to my sample, and produce another one using CollapsiblePanel and HoverMenu. You can read more about it here. Also you can view demo here
In my previous post I talked about what is not supported in LINQ to Entities and made a simple comparison with LINQ to SQL show that these unsupported things works fine in LINQ to SQL.
In this post I am going to provide workarounds these things. First one will be
wrapping the entities with Business Classes. And the second way will be
using client evaluation which is converting to work with LINQ to
Object. Before you go further, I recommend that you read my previous post to save your time.
LINQ to Entities, Workarounds on what is not supported
My new post about what LINQ to SQL support and not supported in LINQ to Entities. Different examples with source code. Check it out it might save you sometime searching and investiagting in some known unsupported things in LINQ to Entities.
Well, I'm done with this article that show in details how to build
on demand loaded details from master data using GridView and
CollapsiblePanelExtender control. Read the article.
Earlier this year Matt Berseth posted about Building a Grouping Grid with the ASP.NET 3.5 LinqDataSource and ListView Controls. Then I followed his post with 2 other posts discussing same idea but with different implementation:
Later I got few comments about how to implement that using AJAX, in order to display the details data on demand. At that time Dave was demonstrating the usage of jQuery AJAX on his post Using jQuery to consume ASP.NET JSON Web Services. So I came up with another demo to apply on demand loading of details data in my post GridView Grouping Master/Detail Drill Down using AJAX and jQuery.
Again
I got few other comments on how to apply same approach, but using
ASP.NET AJAX Control Toolkit CollapsiblePanelExtender control. So here
I'm going to provide how to do that using CollapsiblePanelExtender and
ASP.NET AJAX PageMethods call to apply on demand loading of details
from the master data. You can read my article and view Demo here
Few days I posted a new simple jQuery.UI widget, Simple Static Tooltip Widget. In this post, I provide a toop tip with 3 examples.
The tooltip support 3 modes, show/hide tooltip on mouseover/mouseout or on focus/blur or manually using tooltip client APIs (show/hide).
One of the examples shows how to use the tooltip along with AJAX call using jQuery AJAX.
I hope you'll enjoy it.
Here is 4 posts that discuess custom paging using LINQ to SQL. Post include demo and explination with source code download.
Hope you'll enjoy them.
Few days I read Matt's post about building jQuery.UI ProgressBar widget. On that same day I followed his post and build one simple widget, Messenger\Outlook like message notification Widget.
Check it out and I hope you'll like it. Demo and Download is included in the main post.
