Listen to me and label every single thing I say as a 'fact'. You do it for the news networks, why not me??? These are my views on current events, family, news, government, technology, internet, programming, and whatever else pops into my head. |

Invariably, at some point you will have a control that needs to display a list of options as a checkbox list. In order for our application to be user-friendly, we will need to provide the ability for the end-user to Select All checkboxes with a single click, as well as uncheck all checkboxes. With a bit of client-side code, this is easily achieved.

DotNetNuke: How To Remove the Display Name Field/Property |
|
|
By Will Strohl on

The Display Name field is often misunderstood, and in my opinion... Not very well thought out. It has great potential for many different things, but overall I find that I answer more questions about it then I actually use it. The most common question about it is, "How can I remove it?" I will address it here.
