Check if Popup Window Closed

Sometimes you will want to use a popup window for an antiquated system and need to maintain a reference to the popup window so that when the popup loses focus you can bring it back in focus with a click of a button. The following script will allow you to do that.
In brief, the script opens a window when a button is clicked, if it loses focus you just need to click the button again to get it back. The script also deals with the fact that the user may close their browser window, navigate away from the main page or refresh the current browser window.
Enjoy!

ASP.NET MVC - Set custom IIdentity or IPrincipal

Here's how I do it. I decided to use IPrincipal instead of IIdentity because it means I don't have to implement both IIdentity and IPrincipal. Create the interface interface ICustomPrincipal : IPrincipal { int UserId { get ; set ; } string FirstName { get ; set ; } string LastName { get ; set ; } } CustomPrincipal public class CustomPrincipal : ICustomPrincipal { public IIdentity Identity { get ; private set ; } public bool IsInRole ( string role ) { return false ; } public CustomPrincipal ( string email ) { this . Identity = new GenericIdentity ( email ); } public int UserId { get ; set ; } public string FirstName { get ; set ; } public string LastName { get ; set ; } } CustomPrincipalSerializeModel - for serializing custom information into userdata field in FormsAuthenticationTicket object. public class CustomPrincipalSerializeMode...

linq orderby multiple columns dynamically

So, it's been a while, but I thought I take moment and do my annual blog post ;). I've been playing around with  ASP.NET MVC  and the Linq stuff for  NHibernate  recently. I was in need of an OrderBy extension method that could take a SQL-Like OrderBy string and sort a IQueryable<> or IEnumerable<> collection. I wrote up an implementation that worked, but I just wasn't satisfied with its internals (quite a bit of reflection to get the correct type to construct a LambdaExpression, etc) At any rate, I couldn't leave well enough alone, and, after a bit of Googling, I ran across this  StackOverflow  answer about Dynamic LINQ OrderBy . The extension method wasn't exactly what I was looking for, but that ApplyOrder method is slick, and solved the portion of my implementation that was bothering me. So, I though I would post up my version in case anybody finds it useful. It handles the following inputs: list.OrderBy( "SomeProperty" ); list.Ord...
