XMod let me create modules in no-time. With Xmod's easy to use interface and short development time i simply cannot find any reason to stay in visual studio.net for developing small modules.

Leverage Third Party Scripts to Make Your XMod Modules Dance One of the great things about XMod has always been its flexibility. Version 5 takes it to a new level. One key new feature is the Repeater template type. This allows you to fully control the HTML that is sent to the browser. This, along with XMod's support for Javascript and stylesheets, makes it possible to leverage 3rd party libraries to achieve some spectacular effects, with very little work.As an example, this page contains a script that enables you to create a news ticker - or, very easily, a slideshow. If you hover your mouse over it, the ticker will pause, so your visitors can read the text. Purchase XMod or Upgrade Today

Basic Ordered List (<ol>) Agave Beargrass Bird of Paradise Cactus Calceolaria Carnege Hyacinth Chick Hen Chrysanthemum Cineraria Coneflower Daffodil Dahlia Daisy Ice Plant Lily Primula Polyanthus Pulsatilla Rose Tulip Verbena	Paged Ordered List In this example, we're still working with a basic Ordered List, but the page size has been set to 10, resulting in 2 pages of data. We're also using an XMod feature to display the record number of each item, relative to the full resultset - i.e. it's position within the results. This is not the record ID - rather, its the number of that record as it appears in the list. That number appears in parentheses. Notice when you change pages that the ordered list numbering is reset while the position number in parentheses is not. (1) Agave (2) Beargrass (3) Bird of Paradise (4) Cactus (5) Calceolaria (6) Carnege Hyacinth (7) Chick Hen (8) Chrysanthemum (9) Cineraria (10) Coneflower 1 of 2 << Prev 1 2 Next >>

Basic Definition List (<dt>) In this example, we're using the HTML Definition List tag. The primary purpose of the <dl> tag is to display a set of name/value pairs. Here we have added the flower's definition to the output. For the sake of space, we have limited the output of this module to only 3 flowers. Agave Chiefly Mexican, they occur also in the southern and western United States and in central and tropical South America. The plants have a large rosette of thick fleshy leaves generally ending in a sharp point and with a spiny margin; the stout stem is usually short, the leaves apparently springing from the root. Along with plants from the related genus Yucca, various Agave species are popular ornamental plants. Each rosette is monocarpic and grows slowly to flower only once. During flowering a tall stem or "mast" grows from the center of the leaf rosette and bears a large number of shortly tubular flowers. After development of fruit the original plant dies, but suckers are frequently produced from the base of the stem which become new plants. It is a common misconception that Agaves are a cactus. Agaves are closely related to the lily and amaryllis families, and are not related to cacti. Beargrass Xerophyllum tenax (syn. Helonias tenax) is a grasslike perennial in the family Melanthiaceae, closely related to lilies. It is known by several common names, including bear grass, squaw grass, soap grass, quip-quip, and Indian basket grass. It can grow to 15-150 cm in height and grows in bunches with the leaves wrapped around and extending from a small stem at ground level. The leaves are 30-100 cm long and 2-6 mm wide, dull olive green with toothed edges. The slightly fragrant white flowers emerge from a tall stalk that bolts from the base. When the flowers are in bloom they are tightly packed at the tip of the stalk like an upright club. The plant is found mostly in western North America from British Columbia south to California and east to Wyoming, in subalpine meadows and coastal mountains, and also on low ground in the California coastal fog belt. It is common on the Olympic Peninsula and in the Cascades, northern Sierra Nevada and Rockies. Bird of Paradise Strelitzia reginae is a monocotyledonous flowering plant indigenous to South Africa. Common names include Strelitzia, Crane Flower or Bird of Paradise, though these names are also collectively applied to other species in the genus Strelitzia. Its scientific name commemorates Queen Charlotte of Mecklenburg-Strelitz, wife of King George III. The plant grows to 2 m (6½ ft) tall, with large, strong leaves 25-70 cm (10-28 in) long and 10-30 cm (4-12 in) broad, produced on petioles up to 1 m (about 40 in) long. The leaves are evergreen and arranged in two ranks, making a fan-shaped crown. The flowers stand above the foliage at the tips of long stalks. The hard, beak-like sheath from which the flower emerges is termed the spathe. This is placed perpendicular to the stem, which gives it the appearance of a bird's head and beak; it makes a durable perch for holding the sunbirds which pollinate the flowers. The flowers, which emerge one at a time from the spathe, consist of three brilliant orange sepals and three purplish-blue petals. Two of the blue petals are joined together to form an arrow-like nectary. When the sunbirds sit to drink the nectar, the petals open to cover their feet in pollen.
