I recently found out, to my surprise, that the TreeViewDragDropTarget (found in the Silverlight 4 Toolkit), doesn’t have an “EnableDragDrop=true/false” property. 
So how do you enable / disable the drag’n’drop mechanism?

After I googled for this error for some time, without any luck, I decided t o write a quick blog post about it, just to help others which might have the error due to the same reasons as me.

Today I got this error “XAML Namespace http://schemas.microsoft.com/expression/blend/2008 is not resolved.” in a Silverlight 4 project. I happened right after I added some VisualStates in Blend 4. I could remove the VisualState XAML and everything would then build again fine. As meantioned I googled the error but couldn’t find a solution.

When you have a web site, for instance an installation of BlogEngine, you often want to be able to know about errors on it and if it is down. There are a lot of tools to help you out here, but in this post I will talk about using a build-in ASP.NET feature called Health Monitoring and a tool I wrote called WebMonitor.

Some time ago I decided I wanted a new theme on my blog as I got tired of the old one. So, I started looking/searching for a nice theme for BlogEngine that I could use. After about 15 min. I had found ALL themes for BlogEngine on the web…very disappointed! I don’t know why, but there is very few themes for this blog engine out there. Why? I really don’t know, because it’s actually pretty easy to make them. Basically what I found was this: http://www.dotnetblogengine.net/page/themes.aspx which have 4 links to sites that have some themes each. It’s NOTHING compared to Word Press.
As I got through the first 3 links on the link above I got more and more sad. Then I got to the 4. one http://www.jankoatwarpspeed.com. This blog didn’t had a nice theme as a download, but it had a really nice looking theme on the blog it self. Through Twitter I contacted Janko Jovanovic which is the owner of the blog and creator of the theme. I asked which theme the theme were based on and he told me it were made by himself. Dammit, were my first thought :) I then asked if he would share the theme with me and he said that I could get inspired by it. So I did. :)
