Accessing a ServiceStack RESTful API using jQuery with CORS

The following applies to jQuery version 2.0.3 and ServiceStack version 3.9.59 My latest project is using ServiceStack.net  to create a REST-ful API for an existing data interchange format. There are a few gotchas that are important to understand: REST API DELETE Methods and jQuery The specification may be a bit vague, but most server frameworks (including ServiceStack) ignore any parameters passed to DELETE methods in the body. Only parameters passed on the URL are sent into the method. This behavior is similar to a HTTP GET. That is okay, but when you call an $.ajax method using jQuery, it doesn't serialize and attach the data to the URL, but instead puts it in the body...where the server promptly ignores it. In order to handle this apparent disconnect, and use the same semantics in $.ajax, you need to move the parameters from the body into the URL. The following ajax prefilter code does the trick: $.ajaxPrefilter(function (options, originalOptions, jqXHR) { if (options...

ATLAS AJAX Control Toolkit AutoCompleteExtender with Key Lookup

I like the ATLAS AJAX Control Toolkit. It integrates with Visual Studio and has useful if not basic javascript functions that can help a website be much more interactive. The AutoComplete Extender is used to provide auto-complete functionality to a text box. To use it, you simply add an extender and a web service method that provides a list of strings based on the text that the user started typing. So, if you are trying to provide the exact string that the user is typing (ala google search help), you can use it out of the box. However, sometimes you want more list-ish functions, that is, you want to present the user with a list of valid choices that represent objects, not just the descriptions. One alternative is to use a Listbox with a ListSearch Extender. This extender is used to find an existing value within the listBox. The downside to this approach is that every item you are looking for has to be in the list. This can be rather unwieldy if the list has more than a couple dozen i...

It's all about presentation...

My last post, you may notice has code snippets that look somewhat professional. I found a cool online tool called Code2html It turns this: using System; using System.Collections.Generic; using System.Linq; using System.Web; using System.Web.UI; using System.Web.UI.WebControls; using System.Net.Mail; public partial class _Default : System.Web.UI.Page { protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e) { } protected void Button1_Click(object sender, EventArgs e) { MailMessage message = new MailMessage("FROM@domain.foo", "TO@domain.foo", "SYNCHRONOUS MESSAGE", "MESSAGE BODY"); SmtpClient smtp = new SmtpClient(); smtp.Send(message); } protected void Button2_Click(object sender, EventArgs e) { MailMessage message = new MailMessage("FROM@domain.foo", "TO@domain.foo", "ASYNCHRONOUS MESSAGE", "MESSAGE BODY"); SmtpClient smtp = new SmtpClient...
