Michael Washington from the Southern California DotNetNuke Users Group will be presenting "Creating an Expense Report Application in DotNetNuke Using Silverlight 4 and View Model (MVVM)" - Wed August 11, 2010
Silverlight MVP, and DotnetNuke Core Member, Michael Washington, will build a Silverlight expense report application from scratch. The application will allow members of the portal to create expense reports and attach large files (usually scans of receipts). An administrator will be able to retrieve each expense report and print them using the new Silverlight 4 printing capabilities.
The application will be created using the View Model (MVVM) design pattern, which allows a designer with no programming ability to easily re-create the entire user interface using Microsoft Expression Blend

June 2010 Meeting - SocalDUG Member Roundtable Meeting - June 9, 2010 Long Beach, CA
This month, bring your technical questions and have a open discussion with other members. It's always good to get a second opinion / approach / advice on how to tackle programming tasks.
No formal speaker this month.
DNN and jQuery - Wed July 14, 2010
Chad Nash Chief Developer from DataSprings, a successful DNN Module Vendor in Southern Ca. will speak about the DNN and jQuery.
Boost your modules with jQuery
As jQuery gains popularity, it makes sense to find ways to integrate this into your modules and/or allow users to plug their own. This topic will include a summary of the new enhancements within ASP.NET. Tips and examples on how to integrate jQuery into your development via code-behind will be discussed, along with debugging techniques for quality control. Sample jQuery plug-in examples will be presented including items such as Lytebox, Date Pickers, Masked Editors, and several others.
