Just wondering: will Silverlight 2.0 support indexing when it's out?
This is one of the things I've been thinking about in these last days. To be honest, I still see Flash only sites (feel free to add Silverlight to the list too) as more trouble than they're worth it. Even though some say they're more usable, I'd say that's nonsense. To be honest,... Read More...

How to see if a string contains another…
Ok, so you already know the answer, right? That’s why the String class has the Contains method.

One of things you should keep in mind is that the... Read More...

[Disclaimer: I've received a free copy of this book] In the last week I've finished reading the Professional Community Server book. Unfortunately, I didn't really enjoy it.

Here’s an example: class MyInternalClass{    public void Test(){} //no compiler warning } Ok, at the end of the day, Test is really an “internal” method since the acessibility of... Read More...

Well, I’m sure that you agree with me when I say that one of the greatest things about the routing assembly is that we can define parameters (or placeholders) on routes ? Here’s an example that will surelly refresh your memory: http... Read More...
