All rights reserved.The main disadvantage of the inbuilt pager in GridView control is, it is not simply a hyper link to a page but they are associated with javascript which makes a postback to bind the current page records and thus making it not search engine friendly pager. A link is search engine friendly if it has a target page associated with it through href property. Search engines will automatically reach the target page and will index those pages in this case. http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/CodedigestLatestArticles/~3/V4uqc1FnW5M/271_SEO_Friendly_Custom_Paging_and_Jump_To_a_Page_Functionality_in_GridView_Control_Using_LINQ.aspx7/16/2009 9:19:18 AMhttp://www.codedigest.com/Articles/ASPNET/271_SEO_Friendly_Custom_Paging_and_Jump_To_a_Page_Functionality_in_GridView_Control_Using_LINQ.aspxApart from inbuilt server controls and HTML controls, ASP.Net offers us the flexibility to create our own custom control which can be reused across our project. This is because, not every time the inbuilt asp.net controls will satisfy all our needs. To overcome this difficulty, asp.net infrastructure allows us to create our own custom control and user control to build our own functionalities.http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/CodedigestLatestArticles/~3/I0a9Ci9_sGA/269_User_Controls_and_Dynamic_User_controls_in_ASPNet.aspx7/10/2009 11:37:50 PMhttp://www.codedigest.com/Articles/ASPNET/269_User_Controls_and_Dynamic_User_controls_in_ASPNet.aspxDateTime is one of the most frequently used objects in any project we work. Most often, we get requirements to do some basic operations like formatting, adding, comparing on the datetime objects in our projects. This article will help us to understand the DateTime object and other operation we can do with datetime object.http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/CodedigestLatestArticles/~3/cxAt10iynvU/264_Working_with_DateTime_Object_and_Formatting_DateTime_Object_in_ASPNet.aspx7/2/2009 5:42:49 AMhttp://www.codedigest.com/Articles/ASPNET/264_Working_with_DateTime_Object_and_Formatting_DateTime_Object_in_ASPNet.aspxRepeater control is one of the light weight control when compared to the other databound controls. It provides more flexibility on the layout of data displayed and the control itself will not render any additional HTML like GridView and DataList control do. Repeater control as such will not provide edit/update functionalities for the data. In this article, we will overcome this difficulty and provide an edit update feature similar to GridView control using the powerful jQuery library and Ajax. http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/CodedigestLatestArticles/~3/UFbaYIcB2BU/261_GridView_Style_Edit_Update_in_Repeater_Control_Using_jQuery_and_Ajax.aspx6/26/2009 11:05:54 AMhttp://www.codedigest.com/Articles/jQuery/261_GridView_Style_Edit_Update_in_Repeater_Control_Using_jQuery_and_Ajax.aspxThis article demonstrates using the windows API FileOpen Dialog to get a user's file selection.http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/CodedigestLatestArticles/~3/YiYlEtXnQ8c/258_How_to_call_the_Windows_API_FileOpen_Dialog_.aspx6/26/2009 10:42:40 AMhttp://www.codedigest.com/Articles/CSHARP/258_How_to_call_the_Windows_API_FileOpen_Dialog_.aspxArrays are an extremely important part of any programmer's code library. There are static and dynamic arrays. This article discusses these two types of arrays and includes examples of each.http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/CodedigestLatestArticles/~3/paKRKxNnveE/257_Declaring_static_and_dynamic_arrays.aspx6/26/2009 10:16:36 AMhttp://www.codedigest.com/Articles/CSHARP/257_Declaring_static_and_dynamic_arrays.aspxWhat is an array?In simplest terms, an array is an organized collection. It can be a collection of anything. The important thing to remember is that it is a collection. This example uses an array of system.drawing.color.colors to change the background color of a windows form.http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/CodedigestLatestArticles/~3/HIzrkIIn0Vg/255_Introduction_to_Arrays_in_C_Sharp.aspx6/20/2009 11:07:24 AMhttp://www.codedigest.com/Articles/CSHARP/255_Introduction_to_Arrays_in_C_Sharp.aspxOne of my previous article Building Cascading DropDownList in ASP.Net Using jQuery and JSON discussed about constructing cascading DropDownList control using jQuery and JSON.

LINQ is a data querying methodology that provides querying capabilities to .Net languages which have similar to SQL query syntax. Moving forward, we will build custom paging for GridView control using LINQ to SQL classes.http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/CodedigestLatestArticles/~3/tnfgSlt5OTc/153_Custom_Paging_for_GridView_using_LINQ.aspx6/11/2009 9:09:55 AMhttp://www.codedigest.com/Articles/ASPNET/153_Custom_Paging_for_GridView_using_LINQ.aspxSOA is an architectural design pattern by which several guiding principles determine the nature of the design. Basically, SOA states that every component of a system should be a service, and the system should be composed of several loosely-coupled services.WCF is the acronym for Windows Communication Foundation.

Normally, we can do this with a textbox and asking user to input the date in a particular format using a help text near by the textbox. This article will help us to build this control ourselves and also some of the other options available.http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/CodedigestLatestArticles/~3/LI7Vd_Qguds/247_DatePicker_Control_in_ASPNet.aspx6/4/2009 6:19:19 AMhttp://www.codedigest.com/Articles/ASPNET/247_DatePicker_Control_in_ASPNet.aspxInput validation is one of the important things we should implement in any project. From ASP days, we write our validation code using javascript wherever necessary. With the introduction of .Netframework, we have set of inbuilt validation controls which help in validating our inputs easily and which take very less time when compared to ASP days.

Most of the times, we will also have number of roles to provide different set of permissions to different users. The ASP.Net AJAX Extensions 1.0 released for ASP.Net 2.0 does not have an inbuilt service like authentication service that provides roles support.
