  • C#: String.Inject() - Format strings by key tokens

    I generally prefer to use String.Format() instead of doing a bunch of string additions, but constantly find myself splitting the code onto multiple lines with an appended comment to keep track of the indices: string myString = string .Format( "{0} is {1} and {2} is {3}" , o.foo, //0 o.bar,...

  • .NET: What exactly does Trim() trim?

    I found myself using the character specific String.Trim(params char[] trimChars) overload to remove some carriage returns and tabs when I realized I was reinventing the wheel again.  Not content with the basic Trim() 's intellisense ( "Removes all occurrences of white space characters from...

  • Mutex Mischief

    To clean up an old farm from some setup errors, I recently rebuilt the farm from bare metal, re-attaching all the content DB's after the rebuild to prevent data loss. Imagine my horror when after 100% successful testing, and flawless installation, the first page I pull up shows this: Mutex could...

  • Image Changes on Hover

    It sees there are a lot of large javascript samples out there to change an image source on mouse over, but they all seem overly complex.  Here's a little one I made recently for a project I was working on: <script> function imgHover(imgObj,imgSrc){     imgObj.src=imgObj...

  • Security Trimming WebControls and ASP Objects

    I hadn't used this yet, and had cause to this week.  It works slick, and is pretty configurable... I used it to hide the SiteActions button on list pages for members, but not admins, as well as admin web parts embedded in a page.  It works with Web Parts, Web Controls, and other ASP.Net...

  • C#/MOSS: Extension Methods: For Good and For Evil

    Let me start with some good news: C# 3.0/ASP.NET 3.5 works beautifully with SharePoint 2007, thanks to the forward-compatible nature of the .NET framework from version 2.0 onwards. This compatibility opens up all sorts of avenues, one of them is the use of Extension Methods, replacing trusty old Utility...

  • Adding category titles to Blog sites (category.aspx)

    I recently found an application of the Blog template that was a great fit, but needed the Category title listed on the top of the page when you click a category from the default page. Normally, it is not visible anywhere except in the URL as a parameter, and in the categories of the posts listed. The...

  • SharePoint Connections - The Real Day 3

    Well, today was already scheduled to be a short day, but between a VPC failure (seems to be a common theme... a few presenters also has this issue) and some issues back in the office, it looks like I'll probably miss the rest of the day. It solves one challenge... Which presentation to go to at the...

  • SharePoint Connections - The Real Day 2

    I started off by trying out Veli-Matti Vanamo's Introduction to Web Part Development presentation. He was actually a substitute for his co-worker, Emer McKenna. The majority of the content was from their new book to be released in Dec, Microsoft SharePoint 2007 Technologies: Planning, Design and...
