    Five in Five: Some of My Favorite Things about Test Studio

    Announcing Fiddler 2.4.3 Beta

    Yesterday, an updated Fiddler Beta was released, targeting .NET2 or .NET4. This update contains the usual set of bug fixes as well as a number of small features that I hope you’ll find useful.

However, adding new columns isn’t as easy as it could be, and this Beta includes the first steps toward simplifying this process.

We then thought we could ship such controls to substitute some of the ComboBox functionality and allow you to do you job faster and with less code. The newest addition to Telerik’s ASP.NET AJAX controls family is designed to make creating dropdown lists a breeze, delivering flawless looks and great performance. Meet the DropDownList.
