I wanted to include an old SiteMap project of mine in a new Visual Studio solution for a project I am working on, but ran into a bit of trouble wanting to add NuGet packages to it. I…
I wrote a small extension method for retrieving the URL to an input model endpoint in FuBuMVC together with my collegue Christer Bermar today. What we wanted to achieve was to have the relative address without the leading…
I have been a little bit dry on coding inspiration lately, until the other day when my collegue Karl Ahlin gave me an interesting idea concerning monitoring of configuration files. While I enjoyed coding it, I will leave…
As I have been playing around with using ControlAdapters to change the rendering of built-in EPiServer properties lately, I got curious on what else I could possible do to modify them. As it turns out, the EPiServer PropertyControlClassFactory…
For quite some time now I have been thinking of creating some sort of sample project to show how a Model-View-Presenter approach may be used in an ASP.NET WebForms project. Lots of what is out there on this…
I came across another Internet Explorer feature today as I was debugging a piece of code related to adding referrer URLs when submitting input forms. It worked perfectly on all versions that I tried of Firefox and Chrome,…
I have always missed a way of supplying arbitrary input parameters to EPiServer scheduled jobs through the Admin Mode scheduled job interface. As Stefan Forsberg laughingly pointed out to me when I told him about my POC for…

The short answer would be, “Create a control adapter, add it to your .browser file and have it applied using browser recognition”. If you want the longer verion, you will have to continue reading. First, let us start…
The other day, I got a question from a former collegue of mine who was having trouble styling the ASP.NET FileUpload control, as it renders into a particulary nasty bit of HTML; i.e. an <input type=”file” /> tag.…
I got this exception when setting up an old website on a new 64-bit Windows Server. The system was using an old Access database for keeping statistics information, which did not seem to like the new environment. As…
When a customer wants to move their site from version 4 of the EPiServer platform to a later one, the URLs will change. It is very likely that so will the ids for the migrated pages. Here is…
A customer asked me to see what I could do for their XForm order notification e-mails today. Apparently the department handling their incoming orders was receiving really long e-mails with loads of superfluous information; this as every field…
I was working with dynamically added TextBox controls in an unknown structure of recursively nested Repeaters the other day, and needed to loop through them after they were posted back to the server. Since I had no idea…
