In ASP.NET Core 2.1, we brought SignalR into the ASP.NET Core family. Many of our users have asked what this means for the previous version of SignalR: ASP.NET SignalR. As a reminder, ASP.NET SignalR is represented by the NuGet package and runs on applications using .NET Framework and System.Web. ASP.NET Core SignalR is part of the ASP.NET Core p...

We finished generating a new VSDoc for the latest update of jQuery.  You can download it from the jQuery Downloads page.  A refresher on how to use the file can be found here or here.  Happy coding!Jeff KingProgram ManagerVisual Studio Web Tools

jQuery 1.3 was released a little over a month ago.  The 1.3 release adds exciting features such as selector performance improvements, "live events" where events can be bound to both current and future elements, and more.  Version 1.3.2 was released a few days ago and fixes some bugs include one involving selector performance in IE.

I've been reading through the 70 or so comments on our last 2 jQuery posts.  There have been a lot of great questions.  Apologies for not being able to answer them sooner (I was busy preparing for Dev Connections).  Instead of answering them inline with the comments, I'll try to paraphrase the popular issues here and answer them cent...

Problem You have a user control that has a "link" tag to an external style sheet or a "style" tag with local styles...

Ext is great framework for adding rich AJAX interactivity to your web application.  Unfortunately, JScript IntelliSense currently has difficulties processing the script and it's not uncommon to see this message: I just wanted to let everyone know that we've investigated and fixed the issue.  This fix will be available in the next servi...

The feature I'm most excited about in Internet Explorer 8 Beta 1 is ironically one you might not notice at all. Problem If you're reading this, you probably know (and are still untangling the double-negative logic of) the "Disable script debugging" option in IE.  Say you just spent 10 hours debugging script.  It's time for a break.  ...
