Ever had controls that need to add to the Query String but not duplicate or erase what’s already there? This is a little utility I dug out and just changed to use a generic dictionary recently. Just use it as you would a normal dictionary. When you instantiate a copy it picks up the current query string. There are two ToString() methods, one just return the query string and the other appends another string to the end and takes care of the ? & issues.

{
if (HttpContext.Current != null && !String.IsNullOrEmpty(path))
{

{
if (context != null && !String.IsNullOrEmpty(path))
{
return "/" + path.Replace(context.Server.MapPath("/"), "").Replace(@"\", "/");

To convert to string:
Jayrock.Json.Conversion.JsonConvert.ExportToString([object]);

([object])Jayrock.Json.Conversion.JsonConvert.Import(typeof([object]), result);
It’s been a bit quite round here recently! Don’t be fooled! The CMS is more or less finished. Just refactoring and preparing bits and bobs.
The actual core itself hasn’t really changed in 6 months and is independent from the CMS, it handles all the page, content and control creation with a single base class that you can implement to create page renderers for any page type. Current renderers are the LiveEdit renderer, Content Block, File Include and Rss (Mobile next).

Whilst working on the CMS I needed to be able to pass back the html a control will render when the user first adds it. The control doesn’t exist on the page yet as the sections are added via javascript. It was very easy to pass in StringWriter to the render function to get the html
