I don’t write much, as you can see by the dates on my posts. But I want to make sure to register this here, so people can easily find a solution to this problem instead of spending hours trying different things.For some reason, my modal popup was not displaying in Safari/Chrome.The fix is to replace ScriptManager with AjaxToolKitScriptManager.Replace:<asp:ScriptManager ID=”scriptManager” runat=”server” />With this:<ajaxToolkit:ToolkitScriptManager ID=”scriptManager” runat=”server” ></ajaxToolkit:ToolkitScriptManager>I hope this helps,

Man, was Europe fun or what? It was my first to trip back to Europe since I was born. Besides the fact that Europe is awesome, I was traveling with my parents, my oldest brother and his wife, my wife and another brother of mine. I think having your family sharing an experience like that makes everything even better.

Today I came across an unusual request, I had to query the database and return the values in a pivot table format (variable columns). That’s kind of easy to do if you are using Sql Reporting, but I had never had to display a gridview in this format. After some research, I was able to find and article on Uma Chandar’s site doing just this: here
create table #tb (record_id int, obj_id char(4), reference char(10))
insert #tb values(1, ‘Btn1′, ‘forward’)
insert #tb values(1, ‘Btn2′, ‘backward’)
select
record_id,
min(case when obj_id = ‘btn1′ then reference end) as btn1,
min(case when obj_id = ‘btn2′ then reference end) as btn2
from #tb
group by record_id
I hope this helps.

After spending almost 2 hours investigating the following problem with a Ajax dropdown extension object:
‘Error: Sys.ArgumentTypeException: Object of type ‘AjaxControlToolkit.PopupBehavior’ cannot be converted to type ‘AjaxControlToolkit.PopupBehavior’.
I finally realized the page was using the smartNavigation directive. This directive has become obsolete with .NET 2.0, you can now use Page.SetFocus() and
Page.MaintainScrollPositionOnPostBack() instead to obtain similar result. However, during the upgrade process from 1.1, the wizard didn’t flag this directive as a problem, so
I was not aware of its presence until I came across the problem above.
Anyway, I was not surprised that upon removing this directive, the page was no longer throwing the javascript exception.
Lesson learned.
