My Latest Articles From Around the Web

Published 01 March 11 04:01 AM | Scott Mitchell

In addition to my regular articles on 4GuysFromRolla.com, I’ve recently authored a number of articles that have appeared on other websites:

  • Use ASP.NET and DotNetZip to Create and Extract ZIP Files - This article shows how to use DotNetZip to create and extract ZIP files in an ASP.NET application, and covers advanced features like password protection and encryption. (DotNetZip is a free, open source class library for manipulating ZIP files and folders.)
  • Creating a Login Overlay - Traditionally, websites that support user accounts have their visitors sign in by going to a dedicated login page where they enter their username and password. This article shows how to implement a login overlay, which is an alternative user interface for signing into a website.
  • 5 Helpful DateTime Extension Methods - This article presents five DateTime extension methods that I have used in various projects over the years. The complete code, unit tests, and a simple demo application are available for download. Feel free to add these extension methods to your projects!
