Error "The project type is not supported by this installation." while creating ASP.NET AJAX enabled Web Application

Last night I downloaded and installed ASP.NET 2.0 AJAX Extensions 1.0 on my home computer. When AJAX extensions are installed, ASP.NET AJAX Enabled Web Application project template is also installed.
I tried creating a new project by selecting ASP.NET AJAX Enabled Web Application and I got an error some thing like below.

The project file 'C:\Inetpub\wwwroot\.....\AJAXTest.vbproj' cannot be opened.
The project type is not supported by this installation.

Upon Googling a bit, I found that we need to install Visual Studio 2005 Web Application project.and VS 2005 hot fix to support Visual Studio 2005 Web Application project. The hot fix should be installed first.
Please follow the link to learn more.

Clear Validation Errors and Validation Summary messages

ASP.net built in validation does not provide us a straight forward to clear all the validation errors. This would be really helpful while resetting a form. The reset html button would simply reset the form values but will not clear the validation errors. The following javascript code snippet can be used to clear the validation error messages. Have a reset button on your form and call the following js function onclick. <input type="reset" onclick="HideValidationErrors();" /> function HideValidationErrors() { //Hide all validation errors if (window.Page_Validators) for (var vI = 0; vI < Page_Validators.length; vI++) { var vValidator = Page_Validators[vI]; vValidator.isvalid = true; ValidatorUpdateDisplay(vValidator); } //Hide all validaiton summaries if (typeof (Page_ValidationSummaries) != "undefined") { //hide the validation summaries ...

SharePoint: Comparing dates in XSLT

In one of my sharePoint projects, I had to compare a date with the current date in XSLT. As it turned out, there is no support for date comparision in XSLT. This is how I went about doing it. The trick involves converting the date string into a number Say the date is in ISO format YYYY-MM-DDTHH:MM:SSZ (for example, 2001-01-21T22:54:47Z). Say we have a variable DueDate <xsl:variable name="DueDate" select="'2001-01-21T22:54:47Z'"> Replace the dashes in the string with empty string Take the first 10 character in the date sring convert the string to number number(translate(substring(@DueDate,1,10),'-','')) On doing the above we get: 20010121 We can do the same thing with the date to compare. We can compare the duedate with the current date in SharePoint as follows number(translate(substring(@DueDate,1,10),'-','')) & lt; number(translate(substring(ddwrt:TodayIso(),1,10),'-','')) You can apply the same log...
