It’s a good idea for all the assemblies in a single solution to have the same version number, but the default in Visual Studio is for each project to have it’s own AssemblyInfo.cs file, each with it’s own version number. However it’s easy to share a single Version.cs file between all the projects.More...

Need to crop or resize images before uploading, in asp.net? Sounds like the alternative to thumbnail generation in asp.net web page? Here comes a handy code using jQuery, JCrop and ASP.NET.

I have coded a shopping cart in which there was the need of uploading images to the server, and keep the sizes as required by the content of the pages. In my case I had to hard-code the size of the thumbnail I generated. But wouldn't it be lovely if the site user could crop the image and fix the required size? So I have found one very useful way to Upload and Crop Images with jQuery, JCrop and ASP.NET. I hope this will be useful for all programmers.

Upload and Crop Images with jQuery, JCrop and ASP.NET

The asp.net membership has the mechanism that it locks out a user's account if he/she tries to authenticate themselves with false password five times, by default, or within 10 minute window. The locked user can then not login.

In the MembershipUser class there is a public method UnlockUser() that you can call for any username to unlock the user, this will reset their LastLockOutdate field etc and allow the users to login using the same password. More...

I'll show you how you can quickly enable ViewState compression and show you the effects it has on overall ViewState size and server performance.

How do I enable Viewstate compression?

Enabling ViewState compression with the RadCompression module really couldn't be easier. It requires no changes to your code, no changes to your markup, and not even a change to your web.config (assuming you've already added the required HttpModule references). The only thing you need to do is add a new Browser file to your web project (or modify your Browser file if you're already using one). To add a new Browser file, follow these simple steps: More...

When dealing with MS SQL (not MYSQL) I’ve seen this error message before, but found very little help on it out there.

The log file for database db_name is full. Back up the transaction log for the database to free up some log space.

Within the MS SQL Query Analyzer, do this:

backup log db_name with truncate_only    
go    
dbcc shrinkfile (db_name_log,0)
go

If anything, this post will be useful for me in the future when one of my MS SQL databases coughs up the error again.

At first glance, it should be easy to inject a javascript, but it took a little bit of digging around to figure out the resolution, the key is to use ScriptManager.

<asp:UpdatePanel ID="myUpdatePanel" UpdateMode="Conditional" runat="server">
    <Triggers>
        <asp:AsyncPostBackTrigger ControlID="btnClick" EventName="Click" />
    </Triggers>
    <ContentTemplate>
        <asp:ImageButton ID="btnClick" ImageUrl="ClickMe.png" runat="server" 
            CausesValidation="false" OnClick="btnClickEvent" ToolTip="Click Me" 
            AlternateText="Click me!" />
    </ContentTemplate>
</asp:UpdatePanel>

We wanted to dynamically inject some JavaScript code. If my ScriptManager control has EnablePartialRendering set to true, it's a simple matter of registering the script. What i didn't realize earlier was that you don't need to the use the current page or current event, you need to call the static method on the ScriptManager class. More...
