web-optimization

I've had an A/B Test running in Google Web Optimizer for six weeks now, and there's still no end in sight. Google is still saying: "We have not gathered enough data yet to show any significant results. When we collect more data we should be able to show you a winning combination." Is there any way of telling how close Google is to making up its mind? (Does anyone know what algorithm does it use to decide if there's been any "high confidence winners"?) According to the Google help documentation: Sometimes we simply need more data to be able to reach a level of high confidence. A tested

I'm trying to use the new .net 4.5 webforms control to render bundles in my materpage. I have a scriptbundle defined in my BundleConfig.cs like this: bundles.Add(new ScriptBundle("~/bundles/app").Include( "~/Scripts/underscore.js", "~/Scripts/backbone.js", "~/Scripts/app/app.js", "~/Scripts/app.validator.js", "~/Scripts/app/views/home.js", "~/Scripts/app/views/about.js", "~/Scripts/app/views/contact.js", "~/Scripts/app/controls/hello.js", "~/Scripts/app/init.js")); I then try to render the bundle using the new <webopt:BundleReference> control: <webopt:BundleReference ID="AppBundle" runat=

So I was persistently getting this error on the System.Web.Optimization package Could not load file or assembly 'System.Web.Optimization' or one of its dependencies. The located assembly's manifest definition does not match the assembly reference. (Exception from HRESULT: 0x80131040) I finally found the solution after much trying. The key was in the Assembly load trace. LOG: Redirect found in application configuration file: 1.0.0.0 redirected to 1.1.0.0. Here are the steps I took to resolve the issue. It might be possible to skip some of these but this worked for me: Uninstall the nuget

I'm ASP.NET MVC v4 for my application, and I'm using the web optimization features (bundling and minification of scripts and styles). Now, what I understand is (please correct me if wrong), the optimization framework will look at the included files at the time of compilation and configure them. It'll create a version number (v=something) based on the contents. Every time the contents change, it'll recreate the version hash, and the client will get updated files. Now, is there a way to get the following done [1] Update something inside a js file in my server, and serve the updated one to the

Is there a way that I can Programmatically set an Expires Header in code with ASP.NET? Specifically I need to set it on an entire folder and all sub-folders, and the folder contains only static files (JavaScript, CSS, Images etc.) and not aspx files, so I can't just add some code to an aspx code-behind page_load. I can normally set this directly in IIS. But the server is locked down by the client (I only have FTP access to web app directory for deployments), and getting the client to set the Expires Header on IIS would take an ice age (it's a public sector/government site). I'm doing this for
