What seems to be a simple task has very little examples on the web.

This is one quick way:

//Assuming You have an SPWeb object called "web"
SPList
list = web.Lists["YourList"];  //Get a list
SPListItem item = list.Items[0]; //Get an item
item["Link Field"] = "http://blogs.microsoft.co.il/blogs/itaysk, itaysk"; //equivalent to <a href="http://blogs.microsoft.co.il/blogs/itaysk" mce_href="http://blogs.microsoft.co.il/blogs/itaysk"> itaysk </a>
item.Update();

What do we learn? That the URL is stored as a string that contains both the URL it's display text, seperated by a comma.

A client has asked me about this just a day after this was published! Thanks Sahil :)

Oh, yes... the link: http://blah.winsmarts.com/2007-10-Performing_joins_between_SharePoint_lists.aspx

A while ago I have posted a tutorial about how to make SharePoint's navigation highlighting to be more relevant. (link to the post

The download link for my sample project was broken, so thanks to some feedback from you I have fixed it. Here is the correct link to download the project: http://blogs.microsoft.co.il/files/folders/itaysk/entry24525.aspx.

Enjoy!

Microsoft has released health CUI - A set of guidelines docs and web controls that helps building better health related systems.

How is this has anything to do with you? Because the set of 16 controls included in the suite contains some controls that can be useful to any web developer.
Take for example the Date\Time input controls that allows you to input dates using free-text, the calendar, or the arrow keys.

Take a look at a live demo of the controls, you might find something you like..

The new Live writer (or Live suite) download site is really weird.
Most of the links out there will lead you to http://writer.live.com .

I have tried 3 different computers, each gave me a different page:

This one taken on my laptop running Vista\IE7. No download links whatsoever!:

On the side menu you have a list of the Live suite products. Live Writer is not listed here. If you click some other product, say Live Mail, you get an even weirder page - I can see the buttons here but they are hidden or under layered, anyway they are not clickable! and Writer is not on the menu anyway!

This was taken another PC running win 2003\IE6. again you cannot download anything from here:

Finally, this one is taken at some other computer running win 2003\IE6. This the actual download page:

So if you look for the new Live suite and end up messing with useless sites, here is a direct link to the download:

PS: This post was writer using Live Writer 3 beta and is seems pretty cool..
