In the last days I”ve seen several guys reporting problems while deploying ASP.NET AJAX applications to servers which only have ASP.NET 2.0 + ASP.NET AJAX 1 installed. Generally, the error that has been reported is: Could not load file or assembly ”System.Web.Extensions, Version=3.5.0.0… One of the suggestions that I have seen is to add a […]
There is no excerpt because this is a protected post.
Today I”ve found another interesting post at the AJAX forums (yep, this is the only forum you can say I read frequently nowadays). The scenarios looks like this: a web app has a main page which is uses as the main entry page ,,)lets call it page a) after clicking on a button, the user […]
In the last few days I”ve returned to the ASP.NET AJAX forums. One of the most requested features I”ve seen is generating “excel responses” (do you think i should copyright the term? 🙂 ,,) from data presented on a gridview. There”s already a known strategy for doing this kind of stuff from a traditional ASP.NET page: we […]
After another busy day at work and half an hour swimming, I went to the ASP.NET AJAX forums to chill out befire going back to the IIS 7 online docs. Today I”ve found a cool post ,,)man, you gotta love these forums! 🙂 ) which asked why creating a component through the $create method within […]
Sometimes, you might need to get a reference to the UpdatePanel which was “responsible” for the partial postback. It”s important to understant that a postback will always be started by an existing HTML control and that the panel will only be used for delimiting the places where a partial postback might start. It”s also important […]
Until the release of IIS 7, it was fair to say that the ASP.NET application had its own life cycle, which wasn”t really integrated with IIS. For instance, when you”re using IIS 6, a request will have to be authenticated by IIS before it”s forwarded to the ASP.NET engine. After getting the request, then ASP.NET engine […]
Currently, I use VS 2008 to write all the code and Notepad2 to read txt files. I do also use Notepad2 when I just need to take a quick look at some file. It”s been a long time since I have used Notepad. In fact, I”ve already forgotten about it until today :,,) Let me […]
A long time ago I learnt a cool trick for using fiddler with the internal server that comes with VS. Well, when I made the transition to Vista, it simply stopped working and I no longer got the page on IE. I did managed to get it working but it seems like some of my […]
Even though ASP.NET AJAX has been here for some time, this question still pops up on the forums. So I thought I should put a post here and redirect future questions on the subject to it. Well, to be precise, what you cannot do is call Server.Transfer (or other transfer method – btw, if you”re using IIS 7, […]

While I was hanging around the AJAX forums, I found this interesting thread. The problem was a stack overflow, but the interesting thing was what was causing that error in the first place. here”s the scenario: a top page has a method that receives an object. It also has an iframe which loads another page. […]
Check it out here.
If so, then read on because you might get caught by some issues associated with the ASP.NET session state. If you haven”t heard about this new cool method, then you don”t know what you”re loosing. The first thing you should know before hand is that you will only be able to use the method if […]
Today I”ve received a mail with a comment for an old post I”ve written about Safari not being ready for dual monitor systems. It seems like Justin Megawarne has got a decent workaround for that problem. here are the necessary steps: Maximize Safari on second monitor Press ALT+SPACE to drop down context menu Press M to select […]
Read more about it here.
well, not really :,,) It”s a fact of live that I have never really enjoyed Access, specially when you use it as database. Unfortunately I had to work with it again, after so many years of joy with SQL Server. Ok, so it seems like Office 2007 introduced new drivers for OLE DB and ODBC drivers. […]
It seems like my MVP award for ASP.NET has been renewed :,,) hurray! Thank you MS. Congrats to all those that have also renewed and to the new ones that have just become MVP for the first time!
