In this article, we'll talk about the flow of installing, upgrading and uninstalling a module.

PowerShell By revindex on 8/14/2007 3:33 PM

Global Catch All Exception in .NET Winform and Console Application
.NET By revindex on 8/6/2007 2:49 PM
You normally want to catch all exceptions at the highest tier in code so that your program has the chance to display the error message to the user or log it to the appropriate location. Under ASP.NET, you can do so easily by overriding the Application_Error event in Global.asax file. In a windows form or console application, the equivalent global catch all is available by listening to the ThreadException and AppDomain UnhandledException events. (winform, .NET, C#, VB.NET)

Nested Form in ASP.NET Page
ASP.NET By revindex on 7/24/2007 4:09 PM
It's common practice on the web to copy and paste a third party HTML code to add functionality to a page. To embed this kind of code is normally a breeze for even non-programmers. What appears to be easy is actually quite complicated to do on ASP.NET pages. The reason is because every ASP.NET page is wrapped in one big HTML Form.
