    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. As always, our main goal is adding power to the default controls bundled with Silverlight 2.0. What is more, we will release controls that are not “in the box” of what Microsoft has already prepared. We will provide fully featured, lookless and completely stylable controls that will be “WPF Source Code” compatible. RadControls will allow you to accomplish Rich User Experience and deliver valuable visualizations to your custom applications. Our eye-catching examples will guide you through the...

    Stephen Forte goes to US Congress

    Yesterday was a big day – Stephen Forte, our Chief Strategy Officer, was in the US Congress! Besides talking about Telerik, our quest for global software domination and the Bulgarian-American friendship, Stephen was there to comment on a very important and pending issue: should US government modernize its systems and ensure that heaps of historic information are not just stored but are also accessible. 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. Today I invested a couple of hours in finding out what actually happens and this is what we've got. 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...

    Are you LINQed?

    As you may probably know, since the middle of September last year, RadGrid for ASP.NET provides native and codeless support  for LinqDataSource. You can edit, update, delete and insert records without a single line of code. Furthermore, since the beginning of this year we added codeless hierarchy support - as a result RadGrid for ASP.NET has become the first ASP.NET DataGrid on the market with native LINQ support. With the newly released RadGrid for ASP.NET AJAX we moved our LINQ support to the next level and now the grid will perform all operations like sorting, filtering, paging, etc. using pure LINQ to Objects internally -...

    Increasing the compression ratio of the XAP files

    Today I was hacking around with a Silverlight application and decided to check if it is possible to recompress its XAP file in order to save some bytes. As you might already know, the XAP files are just renamed ZIP files and you can open and view their contents with almost any archiver. I created a simple batch file that extracts an archive to a temp folder, deletes it and then compresses the extracted files into a new archive with the same name as the original (I am using the open source archiver 7-Zip, which was installed in its default location): @if...

    Telerik CAB Enabling Kit Got Rid of Its Beta Tag

    Now that the 2008 Q1 release is out the door, I finally managed to spare a couple of hours for blogging. Telerik is one of the few vendors that offer support for the Composite UI Application Block (CAB). Till recently, however, the Telerik CAB Enabling Kit (TCEK) was in beta as we wanted to hear your feedback on our implementation. The feedback was not grand, but it was enough to tell us that it is time to release TCEK to the public. The beta came with an example application which mimicked the famous WPF Woodgrove Finance Application. For our official release...

    PowerShell Professional – power to the people!

    As Hristo Deshev is quite busy working on getting the WPF beta shipped, I thought I’d make a small plug that his book on PowerShell is available on Amazon! Here’s the link: http://www.amazon.com/Pro-Windows-PowerShell-Hristo-Deshev/dp/1590599403/ref=pd_bbs_sr_1?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1210281519&sr=8-1   Unlike many of the others books on the topic, Hristo’s goal was to make things more practical and teach readers not what PowerShell is but rather how it can be beneficial for them in many common scenarios.   So, if any of you buy Hristo’s book – PLEASE share your feedback on Amazon....
