Use Peter's Business Logic Driven UI ("BLD") to keep your business logic separated from your user interface. It simplifies Web Form development by eliminating business logic code traditionally written into the Web Form. Instead, business logic is where it is preferred: in the Business Logic Layer. Utilizing technologies introduced by ASP.NET MVC and ASP.NET Dynamic Data, BLD gives you the tools to build your a Business Logic Layer and create the user interface that utilizes it. BLD's Web Controls read from the Business Logic Layer to establish validation, formatting, and a multitude of other features that belong in the Business Logic Layer. BLD includes advanced DataAnnotation attributes for your business rules and Data Access Object classes to build your CRUD for your business layer. It includes 25 Web Controls and a templating system to build a rich, flexible, and business logic aware UI. BLD fully utilizes the rest of Peter's Data Entry Suite, reducing the code you write for your data entry web forms. It is designed to be very expandable, with a well designed API and complete source code.  Details and Demos for Peter's Business Logic Driven UI

ASP.NET comes with validators: controls which detect and report errors in data entry controls. So why do you need a replacement to them? Since ASP.NET 1.0 shipped, thousands of programmers have confronted numerous limitations with the validators forcing them to write custom code, hacks, or in some cases, drop a planned feature for their user interface. Peter's Data Entry Suite introduces second generation validation that is so feature rich, you rarely write any custom code, and it gives you compelling ways to add polish to your user interface. The Suite has 27 validator controls to cover most situations, of which 14 are in the Peter's Professional Validation module. Its ValidationSummary control, which summarizes the errors found, has numerous desirable improvements over the one that comes with ASP.NET. All of the validators provide extensive cross-browser support.  Details and Demos for Peter's Professional Validation module

The Peter's Data Entry Suite contains 27 validator controls. If you purchase individual modules, the Peter's More Validators module provides 13 of its validator controls. These validators are designed to handle more specialized situations like validating credit card numbers, word count limits, and duplicate entries amongst several fields. They have some of DES's most complex validation logic carefully implemented for both client and server-side validation.  Details for Peter's More Validators module

Peter's TextBoxes module provides 6 TextBox controls with client-side techniques to really enhance your user interface. It starts with a direct replacement for the TextBox supplied with ASP.NET that is loaded with new features. Plus there are textboxes for integer, currency, decimal, percentage, and filtered keystroke entry. Peter's TextBoxes also includes the MultiSegmentDataEntry control. It is like a power-user's masked textbox. MultiSegmentDataEntry uses multiple textboxes and dropdownlists to handle a single field that has a distinctive pattern, such as phone numbers, IP Addresses, and credit card numbers. You supply it with the text, it splits the text across its textboxes, handles filtering, auto tabbing, and validating. On post back, it reassembles the textboxes into your data value.  Details and Demos for Peter's TextBoxes module

Peter's Date and Time module provides 18 controls used to collect date and time oriented information from your users. Originally called Peter's Date Package, it is one of the most popular date and time entry solutions on ASP.NET web application today. It includes a DateTextBox with popup calendar, a calendar that blows away the native ASP.NET calendar, a multiple selection calendar, two time entry textboxes, validators, and nine other controls.  Details and Demos for Peter's Date and Time module

There are numerous ways to make your web forms more interactive and user friendly through JavaScript. Peter's Interactive Pages module provides your site the same techniques used by JavaScript experts just by setting properties on web controls or calling methods. Peter's Interactive Pages provides 10 controls and 4 technologies.  Details and Demos for Peter's Interactive Pages

Hackers attack your web site through its inputs – data entry controls, query strings, hidden fields, and cookies – to access your database (called SQL Injection) and modify your pages with scripts (called Script Injection or Cross-Site Scripting). These attacks can be very damaging to a business, destroying data, exposing private customer information, or exposing customers to content that you would never want on your site. Validators play an important role in blocking these attacks. However, they have their limitations. Peter's Input Security introduces specialized Validators to detect and block attacks. It also provides a "best practices" framework to protect your site against attacks.  Details for Peter's Input Security

• Supports the CultureInfo object to localize these controls. This means it supports localized numbers and dates.
• Includes a string lookup system that permits localization of most textual properties throughout these controls. You use it to can define standard strings in one place, such as in a .resx file or database. Your controls will use the same text for the same situation, and you can change the text from one place.
• Detects that javascript is disabled on the browser and scales down to server-side only functionality. (This requires at least one post back before it learns the user's javascript settings.)
• Uses TrueBrowser technology. That means it creates controls based on the real browser requesting the page instead of allowing the ASP.NET page to fool it with the clientTarget property. This guarantees the end user the best experience for their browser. With TrueBrowser technology, you can extend support to new browsers and those not previously tested.
• Extensive design mode support for Visual Studio and Visual Web Developer. More
• Javascript files have been compressed for faster transmission.
• Style sheet driven. Style sheets are also compressed for faster transmission.

• Compatible with ASP.NET 2.0 and higher. It includes assemblies compiled for ASP.NET 2. ASP.NET 1.x users can use Peter's Data Entry Suite v4, which is still available.
• Compatible with Visual Studio 2005 and higher.
• Supports most browsers. Some browsers do not support enough of javascript and DHTML or DOM to support the client-side features of these controls. These controls gracefully scale down when the browser has limitations. Client-side support of:
  
  
  • Internet Explorer v4+ for Windows
  • FireFox for Windows and Macintosh
  • Apple Safari (Macintosh and Windows)
  • Google Chrome for Windows and Macintosh

• Includes free Email and messageboard support, even if you are a trial version user.
• Numerous client-side (JavaScript) functions have been documented to allow JavaScript programmers to interact with these controls.
• Object oriented software should not get in your way when you want to extend it. Both server and client-side code have been carefully designed, so when a feature is not built into this product, there are straightforward ways for you to extend this product. A free Developer's Kit with extensive instructions, an MSDN-style help file, and code samples is available.
• DES source code is available through a separate licensing procedure, but is free of charge.
