I’ve been pulling out my hair for the last 30 minutes trying to get an HTML table with height 100% to work in my ASP.NET 2.0 application. I’m trying to render a block of HTML in the center of my application page.
I finally found the solution to my problem – it seems that turning on [...]

Embedding Windows Media and Quicktime into ASP.NET pages
Posted in Everything, Software Development, tagged ASP.NET, Web Development, Windows Media on February 25, 2006 | 14 Comments »
I know there are numerous web sites and blogs about this subject. Since I had to write some code for “Fred” to render on-line video, and embedding video in web pages can be somewhat fiddly to get right, I figured I’d blog the C# code for my future reference. If hosting on-line video in your [...]

Winform applications have been using resources (embedded images etc) for some time. .NET allows developers to embed binary files into assemblies, which can later be retrieved by code at runtime. ASP.NET is no exception. How many times have you written a web control, which requires images, and you’ve had to rely on the client web [...]

HTML to XHTML using SGMLReader
Posted in Everything, Software Development, tagged Code, Web Development on August 9, 2005 | 6 Comments »
Chris Lovett wrote a wonderful .NET library called SGMLReader, which,

unformatted HTML.
I’ve been playing with Chris’s library this

Let’s say you have the following snippet of code below. The code
dynamically
