The easiest solution is to switch to the DataGrid. Since that was released, creating GridViews isn't really an approach I do very often.

If you have to use a ListView, I could see using a Multibinding and a converter to get that done. Basically setup a Multibinding to bind the width of the column you'd like to stretch to the width of the ListView and the widths of every other column. Then, whenever any of those change, the converter can set the width of the stretch column equal to the total width of the ListView minus the widths of each column. That should make it fill the remaining space.

It's not technically a column, it's just the extra space. This ListView doesn't have a direct means to make the columns fill the available space. The DataGrid does however. If you set the width of a DataGridColumn to "*", that column will expand to fill the remaining available space.

The best reason to use events is to eliminate unneeded dependencies. If we were to use a direct method call, then the Car class would have a dependency on another object - the one that defines the method.

If we wanted to use the Car class is several different projects and by several different consumers, the Car class doesn't need to know anything about them. All it has to do is fire an event - any object can then attach and be notified.

Most objects in the .NET framework are implemented this way. The Button class has a Click event. This allows the Button class to be used in a million different projects by a million different developers.

You could try:

I believe you're running into a security violation. The javascript is making a callback to a local resource (file://). Browsers don't typically like doing that because then any website can start reading files from a visitor's computer.

To test your application, you may have to run it in an actual web server. If you're on Windows, you can install and setup IIS fairly easily on your local machine.

Does the Javascript error console say anything?

1. Use GetProcessByName to get a Process object for the each name the user entered in the textbox.

2. For each Process object, set EnableRaisingEvents to true.

3. Hook the Exited event on each Process object. When all of them have exited, shutdown the computer.

If you enter the URL in the address bar, you are directly instructing the browser to request that resource - just like any other website. When javascript is doing it, the user visiting the site has no control over what is being requested. This is, more often than not, an annoying security restriction, but there are legitimate reasons why it exists.

Here's a Wikipedia article on the same origin policy, but there are tons of other articles out there as well.

Both types are in the System.Windows.Forms namespace. If you created a Windows Forms applications, you should already have the reference. If you're creating a WPF application, then you should use the WPF DataGrid. This tutorial does not apply to WPF applications.

There are mechanisms that will allow cross-domain requests to be made. These are typically on the server-side. Yahoo allows cross domain requests to be made and Google does not.

We've used Yahoo Pipes for a couple of tutorials here to act as a proxy to APIs that do not allow cross domain access.
