Microsoft officially released ASP.Net MVC 1.0 a few days after I unsuccessfully tried to install ASP.Net MVC RC2. I thought maybe the official version would work where RC2 failed, but alas, I got the same error from installation of 1.0.

ASP.Net MVC installation failure
I thought I should do some self-improvement by reading up on ASP.Net MVC framework. Step 1, download and install ASP.NET MVC Release Candidate 2.

WebForm_PostBackOptions is undefined
Lately fellow developers had been experiencing "WebForm_PostBackOptions is undefined" JavaScript error when they access the web application that I am working on. This happened both in IIS and Cassini (VS2005’s test web server). While resources from the Internet told me that it’s a problem with accessing ASP.Net 2.0’s WebResource.axd, none of the suggested solutions (e.g. [...]
