.net resources

for an excentric world

Welcome...
Welcome to Excentrics World .NET resources.  This site was designed to provide information about me and the different .NET projects that I work on.  I have also included the different custom controls I've created and released for public use.  Once I get around to writing some articles, I'll post some of them, as well as gather resources for other .NET developers.
Source Code
Find more information about the source code for my custom controls on the Custom Controls Page.
Custom Server Controls
Below are the controls that I've been working on, find out more information by clicking on the control name. If you wish to download the controls immediately, head over to the downloads page.

Control Name: Description:
Calendar Popup Allows you to easily create a popup calendar that does not require a postback to the server.
Collapsable Panel Allows you to easily create a section of content in your web form that can be collapsable.  Support for IE 5+ and Netscape 6+.
Faq Repeater This new data-bound templated control will allow you to add a Faq style listing of question and answers similar to what is found at Microsoft'sWebsite.
Masked Textbox Add a masked textbox control where you can define what you want your users to type in.  Javascript support for IE 5+ and Netscape 6+.  Built in RegularExpressionValidator that you can turn on and off, which helps for validation of data.
Multi-text List Controls These controls extend DropDownList and ListBox, allowing for the developer to add a second data-bound column to the List Item Text.  Also adds new methods for easily selecting list items.
Numeric Box Allows you to easily add a textbox to your webform and only allow numerical data to be entered.  Javascript support for IE 5+ and Netscape 6+.
List Transfer This control extends my Multi-Text List Box control, allowing you to order the List Items by moving them up and down in the control. You also have the ability to move List Items from one Ordred List Box control to the other via PostBack or client side Javascript.
Time Picker Allows you to easily create a popup time picker for easy selection of times throughout the day.

New Website Design Live
Wednesday, April 23, 2008, 9:46 PM

I've just released my re-designed website and blog. I finally decided it was time to give up the blue and yellow look for a more inviting green and orange look. Below are some notable changes:

  • The major structure and content has stayed the same, but I have made some perks to drive more traffic to portions of the site. All incoming links remain the same.
  • I have also decided to ditch the full width of your browser to a more appealing 1024px width. This gives me the opportunity for placement of information.
  • I've added a quicklinks and a quickblog section to the right sidebar allowing for quick access to the most important information easily.
  • There's no more "ideas" page - mainly because it was just a page that didn't get looked at or where I wouldn't take ideas from anymore.

If you come across any issues, please contact me or leave a comment!


New Beta of Website Live
Sunday, April 13, 2008, 1:23 AM

Beta ScreenshotJust wanted to share the beta of my re-designed website. Please kick the tires some for me and give me some honest criticism. The first thing you'll notice is the ditching of the yellow & blue with a more fun green & orange.

You'll also notice that I did a bit of re-organization within the menu, but for the most common tasks - I added a "quicklinks" section that hopefully has the most common tasks one is looking for. I've also tied my blog in with the new design, displaying the last 10 entries, hoping to drive more visitors to the site.

Again, please enjoy this and comment on what you like, don't like, whatever!
