Today I’ve encountered something that made a programmer happy but made me sad.
He had to pull data out of Data Warehouse and use it for his system.
Later, he was informed that DWH personnel made his life easy: They’ve decided to write the data into his own database so he wouldn’t have to work so hard.
Unfortunately this news made him happy, and therefore he went on with it, which made me even sadder.

KnockoutJS–Dependencies One of the things we’ll probably need is to be able to have dependency tracking in our bounded data. For example – if we have a customer’s list, we’d like to see the customer’s orders whenever we click on a customer. In this post I’ll demonstrate how to do it using the dependentObservable function of KnockoutJS Let’s look at the following JavaScript code: var viewModel = { customers: ko.observableArray([]), selectedCustomer: ko.observable(), orders: ko.observableArray([])...
After binding the data into our page, we wish to be able to create an interactive page. This means that we want to be able to add some behavior to our view-model, triggered by an event on the page. (A button being clicked for example)....
After being introduced to KnockoutJS concept and go to know the
basics of data-binding with Observable and
observableArray, let’s move on to how to work with templates and our collection to them.
In this post I’ll explain how to bind a collection with template.

One of the things I’ve cherished the most about XAML related technologies development was the ability to completely decouple behavior and UI using MVVM. I didn’t know about any possibility to implement the same pattern on HTML & Javascript based applications. ...
A problem I’ve encountered at a customer I work for was very strange behavior regarding

Changing namespace in ASP.NET Web-Form When converting VS Web-Site to VS Web application One of the problem you might stumble upon is class name collisions. It is due to the fact that web-site, because of it’s compilation mode, can have the same class name (and no namespace) on different files because they will end up in different assemblies. On web-application though, it is a different story. All classes ends up in the same assembly and therefore we have to name them differently. You will encounter...
Long ago, I’ve written about Session Manager class. The class purpose was to wrap
session variables in properties and gain type safety to them.
In this class we’ve added a Session property with get accessor, which wraps the
HttpContext.Current.Session. Everything went well until I’ve encountered the need
to use this class on Session_End method in global.asax

A common and very misleading http error is the status with code 404.2 .
It is misleading because it belongs to the 404 family which may indicate
that the resource was not found, however this error indicates that the
server has blocked our request by it’s lockdown policy.

After coding our routing handler in our ASP.NET application (available in .NET 3.5 and in much easier way in .NET 4)
Since IIS-6 doesn’t use .Net as a natural part of it’s pipeline there is a
need to do some configuration.

One of the main issues regarding Silverlight was the navigation issue,
what commonly refers as “How can we support browser’s back button”.
Although Microsoft has standard solution for that is somewhat limited. It’s
limitation concerns two main issues:
1. Navigation requires as to use Page Navigation and not user controls
2. It won’t support scenario when pressing a link changes the internal state
but will replace the entire page instead.
In this post, I’ll demonstrate how we can overcome these issues.

I recently had the pleasure of having Elad Katz as a consultant for the customer SilverLight
I work for on Sela’s behalf. Elad’s job was to lead us migrating a “regular”
Silverlight project to MVVM .
This post is the first in a series discussing MVVM and it’s application in
Silverlight. In here I’ll discuss about what MVVM is all about and what are
it’s advantages....
