A man after my own heart. There is nothing like opening a book first to play a computer game.

Pete, it is the later of the two examples. Thank you for the direction. I will do some research on dynamic typing. Thanks!

I mean can I access and view or modify the data programmatically from within C#. Ultimately what I'd like is to create objects on the fly and be able to add data to them. I liken it to dynamic web pages where I can add controls to any container. I'd like to use the object, or use my own I guess, to create a fully flexible object.

Darroll

I'm sure I know the answer but........ Is there a way to box an item without knowing or having access to the class defined in the type? I mean if I have an object can I see it's data items without boxing it to it's class? I would apreciate confirmation on my belief that this isn't possible or clarification on the issues with doing this. Thanks!

Recently I've been looking at the release of the extensibility framework and the new addin namespace in .Net 3.5. This has me wanting to play around with my own extensions for web apps. I know DNN has modules. I'm trying to wrap my head around how to implement my own extensions in my applications. Can I use an existing framework? How would I go about this. I'm sure I'm not asking the right questions. I've done some searching and cannot find any answers. Please help.

goosh.org[^] One question. What is it written in and how would I add that to my site. I'm not looking for the google interface but a command line interface to any web app. Thanks for the find though.

My main concern at the moment is how to manage objects between instances of the servers. The simulation takes multiple vehicles buildings and people. all doing various tasks. There will also be resources that get consumed and created. My thougts were to devide the work load via regions. This way I can segment the load based on the number of objects in a region by resizing the regions. The design of the object menagment and also the best way to transfer and manage objects is what I am looking for. Thanks! -- modified at 15:03 Tuesday 20th November, 2007

I've used the search function to look for articles but didn't find what I needed. I've been tasked with developing an application to run a simulation. The requirements are to allow one or more servers to run the simulation at the same time sharing the load. Are there any articles or books that can give me a headstart in designing this application? Thanks! - Darroll

Is there a way to change the user-agent string for VS 2005? I am trying to use the WSDL tools to connect to a web service but the local LAN denies outside access to any browser except IE.

American Airlines is the most sue happy company I have every heard of. They will sue anyone that thinks of their logo/name/URL. The flight sim community tried using their paint scheme on planes and the companies that did it got sued and a few individuals creating their content got cease and desist letters. There is something, imo, wrong with behavior such as this.

IF you are running IIS with both .Net 1 and .Net 2 you need to set a different application pool for both. You can share an application pool for all 1 and a seperate one for 2.0 but they cannot have the same pool.

Session["SomeVariable"] = someVariableIuse; Use session variables to store information like that about the current user. Just note that you have to cast the objects back out of the Session object string MySessionVariable = (string)Session["SomeVariable"];

A class library is a DLL.

Sounds like a permissions problem. Do you have view permissions to the root of the drive you are trying to view? Another option is to use classic asp style of debugging and output any errors, or even the path of the photos folder.

Darroll

If it isn't already migrate your asp.net site to a web application (at least that is where I have done it). Then File -> add -> new Project. Chose C# class library. Once that is added you can add it as a reference. This way you can put a bunch of your logic into a DLL and take advantage of its reuse.

If I am not mistaken this is because HTML removes any duplicate spaces. Try replacing spaces with & nbsp; to force them in there. -- modified at 17:05 Thursday 12th July, 2007

Hey guys, I'm writing an ASP.NET C# web application that needs to quickly (as possible) display trees that are on the order of thousands of nodes. I know there are commercial solutions out there but have been directed that they are off limits. I have also been told that freeware versions are also a no go. This is partly due to the legalities of using them as well as customer direction. I've tried building the nodes on the fly but my implementation didn't seem to speed up the rendering of the tree. It just seems like the tree control that is included is very bloated and was not built for VERY large trees. If you can point me into the right direction I would appreciate it. Thanks to everyone! This site rocks!
