Kent Sharkey posted an RSS View User control, which is pretty nice...I wanted to use XSLT for mine (I'm akward that way :-)) Anyway, I wrote this little one (which may appear on this blog in the future...)- not perfect but it works after a fashion :-)…

I really like Dino Esposito's writing style...anyway, he's come up with a brilliant article on the most efficient ways to use Session state from ASP.NET- this is just about the best examination of the subject that I've seen and is now one of my 'must reads'…
I wrote here complaining about the (in my opinion) pretty poor treatment of Architecture (especially) for ASP.NET. Well, here's a suggestion of a solution - I've just read the whitepapers for ALL of the starter kits - some people have mailed me to say that…
This would be pretty useful integrated into .TEXT - kill the problem of 'Comments Spamming' pretty instantly. The article also contained a link to The Captcha Project - which makes for pretty interesting reading,
Still waiting for the 0.95 release of .TEXT (which is what this blog runs on), so I don't really want to make any changes to this site until then - as the changes I plan may already be in that release / the changes in 0.95 will be so radical that it will…
Pretty useful if you don't have the ability to use IIS compression (or choose not to) - Jeff Julian has released a 'plugin' for .TEXT which enables you to compress the RSS feeds produced by .TEXT 0.95 - which is very useful, most of my traffic for instance…
I've been giving some more thought to the ViewState stuff I mentioned earlier. It actually brings up something which I find most annoying about ASP.NET - and this is not a political point! Why exactly can't 'ordinary' users see the source for ASP.NET, so far…
Nice sample and methodology from Robert Downey (obvious joke omitted), shows some really interesting (to me at least) insights into the workings of ViewState (you may be noticing a pattern here :-))
Was having a look at this article by Peter A. Bromberg Ph.D. (don't know if that's his given name ;-)) over at Eggheadcafe.com, I always found it a bit annoying that DataSets serialized to XML only. Using the incredibly cool CompactFormatter, combined with the…
I wrote in a previous post that I was planning to have a poke around with ViewState, extending the stuff I've done on compression into encryption and signing etc...well there's good and bad news for this plan. It looks like (oddly) that the MAC and encryption…
