Zero to Professional Web Site in Two DaysUsing Microsoft's Visual Studio Design Templates
Published: at 08:00 PM<p>It's Monday, August 21st, we have <a href="http://www.siliconvalley-codecamp.com">our CodeCamp scheduled for October 7th and 8th</a> in Los Altos California and we realize we need to have our web site to sign up and running yesterday! For those of you who don't know what a codecamp is, basically, it's a developer to developer weekend meeting where high quality presentations are given to an audience of enthusiastic developers. Typically, 30 or 40 speakers running simultanious presentations to 300 or so attendees. Codecamps are all Volunteer, all free, and always on a weekend. So, our web site needs to allow sign ups for speakers and their presentations, attendess to let us know they are coming, provide information about the Venue as well as ultimately provide scheduling information about classes. Most importantly, it needs to do it with style and pizazz.</p> <a href="http://www.siliconvalley-codecamp.com"> </a>
The Ultimate CAPTCHA Custom Server Control
Published: at 08:00 PM<p>In this article, the basic usage of a CAPTCHA custom server control will be discussed. This control is for use in ASP.NET 2.0 only. It is provided in source as well as executable form which means you can use it in your app_code or bin directly. If you use the DLL version, it will support drag and drop from the Visual Studio 2005 Toolbox. The control supports templates which means you can customize it to work in your application giving a consistent look and feel. </p> <p>Below are two representations of the use of the CAPTCHA custom server control. One is simply using the control in it's default configuration with no template, and the other is after modifying the controls template with extra contact information.</p> <p><img src="/wp/Images/Captcha/Abstract_controlsamples.jpg" alt="" width="650" height="442" /></p>
Third Article Published on MSDN! ASP.NET 2.0, Membership Meets Atlas
Published: at 08:00 PMMicrosoft published my third article in a series on how to use Membership in ASP.NET 2.0 with an ObjectDataSource. That is, extending Membership into three tiers. This article takes what was developed in article two and adds Atlas extensions to make it work even better. The Article on MSDN uses the March CTP (Community Technology Preview). There is an update on my blog as well as a download to make it work correctly with the June CTP.
Atlas Membership Management Upgrade (June CTP)
Published: at 08:00 PMAtlas is still in beta from Microsoft and because of this, code that worked in previous CTP versions of Atlas may not work with later CTP's. This is exactly what happened with the version of the MSDN article built with the March CTP version of Atlas. The link below is to revised Atlas Membeship Management source.

How Things Work - ASP.NET 2.0 - CodeBehind
Published: at 08:00 PM<p>In this article, a simple asp.net 2.0 page will be taken apart and shown how the actual page class is put together. As we know, when an http request comes into asp.net through the http pipeline that is destined to be a page (file type aspx), the objective of asp.net 2.0 is to create a complete class that encapsulates that page request. That page class is an httpHandler of course.</p>
