In my previous post regarding an Angular file upload directive, I mentioned that I would also show how to upload to a WebAPI endpoint from that directive. Here we go..

AngularJS Date Range Selector
posted on March 4, 2017 by long2know in angular, JavaScript, plunker
It’s funny how the simplest things crop up that I’ve not had to develop previously. One such thing is a calendar picker that lets a user select a date range. Typically, I would handle this as two separate data selectors, but using a single calendar seemed like a better experience in this particular case.
Angular File Upload Directive
posted on February 24, 2017 by long2know in angular
There have been times when I wanted a really simple file upload mechanism in my Angular 1.x apps. HTML standards provide a simple input button for file uploads. Not only is this typically not easy to style, like making it appear to be a Bootstrap button, it doesn’t lend itself to a stateful JavaScript framework like Angular. However, it’s possible to achieve the desired result with an Angular directive that wraps the standard HTML mechanism.
Angular Table Component

I said it before, but I’ll say it again. Writing web-based line of business applications entails creating a lot of views with tables. I wrote a (imho) a pretty nice table directive for Angular 1.x, and now it’s time to move that directive, in concept, to an Angular2 component.
Angular tri-state checkbox
posted on January 31, 2017 by long2know in angular, plunker
While I’m in the process of converting my Angular 1.x directives into Angular2 components, the tri-state checkbox reared its head. This is a pretty common mechanism and is something I needed to have working before moving along to converting other components.
Angular Http Interceptor and Loading Indicator
posted on January 25, 2017 by long2know in angular
Long, long ago, I blogged about Angular 1.x Request Interceptors and how they can be used to display a loading indicator. I really liked that mechanism. You could intercept any request whether you made it or it was made by the framework. Fast-forward to today, and things are significantly different with Angular2.
Angular Menus, Navigation, and Dialogs
posted on January 19, 2017 by long2know in angular
In my previous post detailing how to create a DialogService for Angular2, I provided a simple service to display a confirmation dialog. The idea that I had in mind when writing that was to incorporate it into Angular2’s Routing lifecycle with a Menu system. Ultimately, it would be used to determine dirty states and display a dialog to the user asking if they want to keep or discard their changes.
Angular DialogService – Exploring Bootstrap (Part 2)
posted on January 19, 2017 by long2know in angular
An important aspect of any web application is displaying messages to users based on events. I like to use modals for this. Angular2’s Bootstrap components provide some basic functionality to facilitate the creation of Modal Dialogs.
Angular Custom Form Validation

It’s been a while, but I had some time today to work a bit more on my Angular2 multiselect implementation. The next aspect that I wanted to implement is validation.
Yet another IE11 bug..
posted on December 17, 2016 by long2know in JavaScript
Recently I posted about a method I use in JavaScript (Angular specifically) to transform posted Date objects to transmit the local DateTime. It’s a simple method that uses JavaScript’s “toLocaleString” method while intercepting POST requests. Everything worked fine except when IE11 was introduced into the equation.
