    IntelliSense for Expression Blend

    [Update]: You can find the addin for Expression Blend 2.0 SP1 here. The problem Expression Blend has been out in the wild for quite some time. However one of the most annoying thing was the lack of autocompletion (aka IntelliSense). Most of devs/designers out there were constantly switching from Blend to VS and backwards to do their stuff. The great free tool Kaxaml is at great help as well. The solution Using the Blend 2.5 add-ins architecture I have created an add-in that adds IntelliSense in Blend. I have reused the code from Kaxaml and adapted it work within Blend. Take a look: Download You can download the add-in from here....

    Search Engine Optimization: Use an HttpHandler when Redirecting

    It is fairly common that you will need to configure a page in your web application to redirect a user to another page. The reasons for this vary, but in one specific case you may want to rethink how you are redirecting your users. When a call to Response.Redirect() is made, the server sends a response back to the client with an HTTP 302 status code, telling the client that the resource has temporarily moved and where it can find the resource. I've created a simple page, OldPage.aspx, which redirects to NewPage.aspx during the Page_Load event. Let's jump into FireBug and see exactly...

    dotNet Register: An Intro

    One of the tasks that has been on my "to do" list for quite some time now is to build a big, real world-ish application that not only provides value to the community but also shows-off a lot of the RadControls in action. It's a big task and one that's especially hard to tackle when traveling about the world to speak and preparing smaller demos that work well in "small bites." But I'm putting my foot down and committing to begin work on this big project now! The goal of my "big project"- which, by the way, still needs a...
