This tutorial should be considered as an introductary summary to handling sessions in asp.net. It looks at the common problems with sessions complete with solutions to the problems. Features example code and full explaination.

At my place of employment, I work a great deal with somewhat complex hierarchical data as part of our measurement and analysis software. Thus, recursion and I have become rather close friends over the last few years. While rewriting an old website, I needed to turn a set of four relational tables into a hierarchical data structure. The top level table held self-referencing relationships as well as child relationships to table 2. Tables 3 and 4 were your basic "run of the mill" child tables up through table2.

It simply shows how to bind a DataGrid to an array using C# code.

This article walks you through the process of building a thin-client ASP.NET bug tracking application, with a Microsoft Access XP backend. It uses nearly every documented capability of the .NET datagrid web server control to allow you to select, edit, update, or delete any item listed in the datagrid. The Issue Tracker uses advanced features, such as reading values from lookup tables, and then conveniently providing these values to the user in Edit mode as dropdownlists. It also employs the IE Web Controls, including the Tab and MultiPane web controls, which allow you to display considerable user functionality on only one web page, yet without cluttering the user interface with confusing complexity. After working through this tutorial, you will have explored and applied all of the main functionalities of the ASP.NET DataGrid control. Happy Coding!

RSS (Rich Site Summary) news feeds are easily consumed and displayed in an ASP.NET web forms page using no more than a few lines of codes. However, listing the RSS news feed links in this fashion can take up considerable page space. Instead, it would be more convenient to display them in a small embedded window that automatically scrolls them to the user. This method substantially reduces the page real estate devoted to the news feed, while displaying the same information in a compact, attractive, and intuitive manner. Once you have developed a method for displaying RSS news in this format, it would be still more convenient to implement the method as a custom control that you can add to any ASP.NET web forms page with just a few lines of code. This article shows you how. In this article, you will learn how to create the illusion of continuous seamless scrolling by: 1) using two datagrids to display the same listing; and 2) scrolling the entire total list, but then repeating the scrolling when it has passed over the first list.

This comprehensive tutorial will walk you step-by-step to create a single ASP.NET page by which you'll be able to retrieve the server name of any given web site. Explains all the code in detail. Very useful.

When developing ASP.NET applications, you may sometimes need to implement a custom validation that is recognized and displayed by the ValidationSummary control so that all validation error message appear in one place without additional coding. You also want to implement this custom validation by using page CodeBehinds, as you would like to leave the ASPX page with the miminum code necessary. This article shows you how in nine easy steps, complete with screen captures and code descriptions.
