The most recent submission to CodeShare comes from Applebee's International. Adam Zabel, Senior Software Engineer for Applebee's International, has contributed a code sample to CodeShare to help you use .NET controls for publish/subscribe panels. The purpose of this code sample was not only to allow you to do this with .NET controls but also to reduce, and sometimes eliminate, the code behind the controls which handle the inter-portal communication. Here is how it works:

"Analyzes controls placed in the publish container and automatically assigns a portlet session variable to it. An appropriate control (either implicit or explicit) causes an event to be raised. Another container (SubscribePanel) receives the raised event and maps session variables to SessionValue (based on HiddenField) controls. Options for inline refresh and postback are provided, allowing the user to bind to the SessionValue control."

If you are interested in this plugin, here are the code sample's details:

Thanks Adam for your submission.

Take care,

Jeremy
