    Client-side data-binding with RadGrid for ASP.NET AJAX, WebServices and LINQ - Part II

    Today I've spent another ~ 30 minutes to extend RadGrid client-side data binding demo to 1 mil. records from my previous post and now you have caching and filtering included. All data operations are accomplished using famous Dynamic Query Library however you can easily rewrite the demo to use SQL syntax instead if you want. You can check the new example here and download the source from here. Enjoy!

    RadControls for Silverlight 2.0 CTP

    Moving forward with the next-generation Web Controls, Telerik is proud to announce its forthcoming CTP release of the RadContols suite for Silverlight 2.0.

    Stephen Forte goes to US Congress

    Yesterday was a big day – Stephen Forte, our Chief Strategy Officer, was in the US Congress!

In essence, Stephen urged them to move away from mainframes so that they can start using our tools:) Here’s what Stephen and the others had to say in the discussion (article from Washington Internet Daily): Government Urged to...

    Client-side data-binding with RadGrid for ASP.NET AJAX, WebServices and LINQ

    As a TRUE ASP.NET AJAX Control you have almost unlimited possibilities with RadGrid for ASP.NET AJAX client-side API. I've spent ~ 30 minutes to create small and powerful demo with client-side data-binding to 1 mil. records using WebService and LINQ. No traditional post back/ajax requests to the same page, no ViewState - just pure JSON. To see the traffic between client and server you can use FireBug, HttpWatch, Fiddler or any other similar tool. Here is a small screenshot from FireBug: Enjoy! [Source code]

    Title Attributes in CSS Link Tags Prevent Styles from Being Applied

    I have been aware for some time now that title attributes in CSS <link> tags trigger problems and prevent some CSS styles from being applied on the web page.

If you have several <link> tags in the page <head> and one of them has a title attribute, then the <link> tags coming after it must either have a title attribute with the same value or no title attribute at all, otherwise the styles in the latter CSS files the will not be applied on the...
