The time has come to hunker down and make some progress on converting the PGC golf program to DotNetNuke.

Being brand new to DNN and pretty new to ASP.NET it looks like it will be a challenge!!

There a number of resources available. The ASP.NET forums for DNN look okay - they have been upgraded to use CS-forums and there have been some upgrade pains - the system was way slow yesterday and kept giving me a general page.

The question of the day  - is how to have mutiple view controls in a module? I am able to get a single control working fine, but I do not want to create 5 modules for my Golf Program!! The application should be one Module of logically related controls.

The newblog by  Hans-Peter Schelian at http://www.dnnportal.de appears to handle this well, but doing a code review of this still has me stumped.

A handul of users on the forums have suggested using  a main control and doing some form of dispatching, following an article at www.coder.com.

Time for a break and perhaps a fresh look later.

About Me

Thanks for stopping by. My name is Jim Bonnie and I have been writing software for over 20 years. After building financial data systems for Reuters for nearly 18 years I have started doing contract work and am excited about technology and currently focus on Microsoft solutions. DotNetNuke has helped provide a good introduction to ASP.NET web application development, and I am now starting to branch out into other areas. Data Access techniques and SubSonic is something that I am looking into now. This has helped me get an invitation to speak at Las Vegas at DNN Open Force 07. it was a great time. And I am looking forward to OpenForce08, where I wil be presenting on TDD for DNN.

 

Reading the codebetter blogs and attending a nothing but .net training class with JP Boodhoo helped spark my interest in ALT.NET. I attended the first conference in Austin Texas, and it was amazing to see Scott Guthrie introduce the ASP.NET MVC framework.
