Flickr Gallery for BlogEngine.NET 1.4 Released!

published 1 month, 22 days ago, submitted by DannyDouglass 1 month, 22 days ago

BlogEngine.NET users should understand this is not a typical "extension" where you drop a .cs file into the App_Code directory. It is a stand-alone section that can be dropped into your BlogEngine.NET instance. You can see an example implementation live on my blog at http://DannyDouglass.com/Photos/. read more...

Flickr Gallery for BlogEngine.NET!

submitted by DannyDouglass 2 months, 26 days ago

published 4 months, 16 days ago, submitted by DannyDouglass 4 months, 16 days ago

dannydouglass.com — After four days of ASP.NET AJAX training with Stephen Walther I set out to learn more about my options in choosing a solution for a JavaScript/Ajax framework. If I realized days later I would be writing this comprehensive post on 7 of the most popular frameworks, I may have just went with the "Inny-Minny-Miney-Moe" method! I decided to share my research, analysis, links, resources, and personal grade for each of the frameworks compared - jQuery, YUI, Prototype, Dojo, MooTools, Ext JS, and Script.aculo.us. I put together a comparison matrix to illustrate where many of the frameworks differ... read more...
