I recently started using Nokia's X2-00 handset (it is my sister's handset :-) ) And from the day one I started facing problems with the phone. It used to get hanged now and then. I did a soft reset, followed by hard reset, restore factory setting etc but still no improvement. Then I searched on google and found many articles saying that this is due to the memory card. The memory card Nokia

Today, I am going to write review of Motorola ex 115, also known as ‘Startling’.  You might be wondering why the hell I am writing review of a mobile phone suddenly and that too of simple phone Motorola ex 115. The reason is simple, I just purchased this phone a week before :-) You will lot of sites on the internet that have reviewed this phone, but all of them mostly talk about the phones

              In Silverlight, when you’re binding data to controls there will be times when the data needs to be modified when it is binded to the control or when it goes back to the source property (during TwoWay binding).  You can always write code to change a given value, but in many cases it’s much easier to write a simple value converter instead that can be re-used. Although a separate

v  One of the useful language features of C# is the ?? "null coalescing" operator.  This provides a nice, short way to check whether a value is null, and if so return an alternate value. v  The ?? operator returns the left-hand operand if it is not null, or else it returns the right operand. v  ?? operator in Action //If userId is not null then it will return userId value //If userId is null

                In Silverlight, all the WCF service calls are asynchronous. After the call to the WCF service is completed, a Completed event is called at the Silverlight UI side.Sometimes it becomes necessary to determine which task raised the Completed event.In this case you can use the "UserState" property to determine this. For Example:                You want to download files from the

The Windows Authentication can be implemented in two ways, First is by making a WCF service call and second is using JavaScript. The First method, with detailed steps can be found on this link http://rouslan.com/2009/03/20-steps-to-get-together-windows-authentication-silverlight-and-wcf-service/ The second method (which I feel is mush better/faster than first) is described below.

The process of reading a feed is as simple as reading a RSS feed using the WebClient class, loading the stream into the SyndicationFeed class and binding it to the Silverlight UI.

Styling in Silverlight is similar to styling in HTML with CSS. It helps you keep your markup (HTML, XAML) code clean by putting all the properties into a separate file. At runtime, both the markup and the styles defined in the external style sheet are merged and give the look to the application as it was intended. Styling was already available in Silverlight. However, up until Silverlight 4,
