I meant how you got from the image source (which is http://www.codeproject.com/KB/Articles/994310/Untitled.png[^] for me) to that other article at http://tutexp.com/angularjs-datagrid-paging-sorting-filtering-using-asp-net-and-mssql/[^] ?

The first version didn't host it on CP - so it was a giveaway! Laugh | :laugh:

I've never had any real luck with image searches - they don't work to well in my experience.

The first version doesn't show any image for me - probably a case of your timetravel shenanigans again! Laugh | :laugh:

If you go to the "reposted" version and look at the revisions, then compare the first one with the latest, you can see the URL in the HTML. It's about one inch down on the scroll bar for me.

Alright - Firefox only shows the alt-text there so I thought there'd be no image at all but I found it in the source Smile | :)

When it was just the one (Ryan) posting that link in the lounge, it was believable.
But two members? Nah - it's spam... Thumbs Up | :thumbsup:

I realy don't believe how gullible you can be.
That URL didn't look anything like it would belong to Microsoft and neither did the content.

Nice try, I'm not so gullible to actually believe you wouldn't know exactly what that word meant!

What do you get when you cross a joke with a rhetorical question?

The metaphorical solid rear-end expulsions have impacted the metaphorical motorized bladed rotating air movement mechanism.

Do questions with multiple question marks annoy you???
