I’m building a view engine for ASP.NET MVC 2 that locates views based on the type names of the controllers. To unit test the bits that construct a path from a namespace, I needed to have a bunch of different types of controllers, and using actual types was clearly going to get messy, so I synthesized...

In my last post , I talked about how convenient it is to use MVC 2 templates to display data. I’ve been trying to use similar ideas to construct generic forms, but I’m running into a problem that I’m hoping there’s an easy way to fix. I’ve built a very simple example to...

Even as Web Single Sign On is gaining more and more traction, there’s still churn.

I picked up a new Motorola/Verizon Droid over the holiday weekend and WOW do I love this phone!! From a user perspective I'm finding the Droid to be useful beyond anything I've used in the past. In just the 5 days I've had it, it has become part of my day-to-day lifestyle like no other phone...

I was doing some work last week developing some iPhone targeted content that includes several maps created through the Google Maps API. As is pretty much always the case when I'm creating iPhone-targeted content, I was using the iUI Framework to help with the app's UI. As you may know, one of...

If you’ve been doing much iPhone-targeted web development, you’re probably familiar with the iUI framework . It’s a great tool that makes producing iPhone-targeted web content that looks and feels like native iPhone apps relatively easy to create. For the most part, the iUI Framework...
