    Windows 8–Data binding Part 2

    In my previous blog post I introduced data binding.  It worked, but there was no mechanism for updating.  Updating comes in two flavors, and these are often confused by folks new to databinding: Someone else updates the underlying data; we’d like the display to be updated The user updates the data on the display, we’d like the underlying data to be updated The first case arises because most of the time you are not the only user of your program – other users may be connected to the same data and while you are looking at your data someone else...

    Windows 8 Primer–Data Binding (Part 1)

    Data-binding is often thought of as an advanced topic, but there really is no reason for that. data-binding is Critical to writing XAML applications Not very difficult to learn A very powerful technique Note to Silverlight, WPF and Windows Phone Programmers: Nothing Here Is New.  Data-binding in Windows 8 works exactly as you expect.

    Migrating OnClientClick handlers from ASP button to Telerik’s ASP.NET AJAX Button

    Let’s start with some background – a common need is for a button to execute some JavaScript code in order to create a more responsive page. With the standard ASP:Button the OnClientClick is used to specify this execution statement. Take the following simple example: <script type="text/javascript">     function ButtonClick(button) {         alert("The Button with ID " + button.id + " was clicked.");     } </script> <asp:Button ID="Button1" Text="Regular Button" OnClientClick="ButtonClick(this); return false;" runat="server" />   What you can see here is a function called with parentheses, an argument provided to the function and the return false; statement that prevents the postback. The case with Telerik’s ASP.NET AJAX Button is slightly different, however. It follows the convention all other Telerik ASP.NET AJAX...

    [Free eBook] Top 30 Agile Myths – True or False?
