    I recently came up with an approach to wiring up some jquery plugins that modify the behavior of standard input text boxes.

I also did not want to reinvent the Editor t...

    One of the biggest challenges of a web-based business application developer involves presenting data to the user in a fast, useable fashion. Sortable, pageable grids solve this dilemma by introducing the arduous process of creating them. Leveraging and extending MvcContrib and jQuery to provide fast, asynchronous updates (from data sorted and paged on the server) to the user is a win....
