If you’ve done any serious Web Forms development you have almost definitely run into issues with the HTML that is generated. There’s a bunch of options for cleaning this up but one of the simplest is to use JQuery (or I suppose even pure JS if you are a masochist) to remove the offending elements […]
Read MoreLast week I was forced to resort to ISQLQuery to solve a problem using NHibernate (the application in question is stuck on v1.2 and what I needed to do is only possible in 2.0+). It’s been a long time since I stepped outside the bounds of ICriteria. Therefore I had to use Google in an […]
