It says "This sample code is the basis for the following sequence of videos that can be found on the ASP.NET Web API home page" and proceeds to list the six videos.

Maybe because I have Windows XP...

This tutorial works in Firefox, but in IE8 when I browse to api/values it tries to download a file. Spent the entire day trying to figure out why and so far no luck.

But it would be nice to talk more about the use scenarios of this API. In which cases using this would be nice option, etc.

It's a little more involved, which is why I stuck with the IE9 developer tools. See Scott Hanselman's walkthrough blog post on how do use Fiddler to test ASP.NET Web API callse: www.hanselman.com/

You will need to configure routes to map to your ApiControllers.

However, i have one comment. I have been programming .net for quite few years now and i'm seeing getting more complex in each release.( My opinion).

It is a great technology, but i'm still debating if i need to invest time to learn that much detail especially when it comes to the HTTP protocol.

Maybe, you can elaborate on the worth of this technology or is it good to know as another option in asp.net .

Thank you

I know there is only so much time in a day, so I do not want to seem as to ask to much. But if at all possible, PLEASE give us something on strongly typing between client and server.

It would be sooooo nice to have a nice demo focusing only on client javascript data being passed to the server and right from the parameter start working with the client data on the server as strongly typed.

Just a real life usage.

I havn't used the repository or knockout.js, so i was lost from the 2nd video on. It was just 'magic'. I vagely under stand and could proabley figure it out. Next time teach web api and use simple stuff for the rest that way i can learn what the vedo is about.

I'm assuming this is considered a cross-domain connection.

In my mobile client application, I can see that the JSON data is being returned, but it is never displayed in the page. Any ideas why this occurs?

264797c6-1140-4b92-841b-e86f605c7fbb.wmv.

Please ... let's have a useful name scheme that's consist across

the ASP.NET web site.

TIMTOWTDI =. there is more than one way to do it

just one of many possible suggestions:

have a short video id that's useful to getting back to the video page, for example:

fc3e_YourFirstWebAPI.wmv

the idea is to use the part before the underscore to easily get back to the video's page, in this case, www.asp.net/, while have at least part of the file name human friendly ... 264797c6-1140-4b92-841b-e86f605c7fbb.wmv is not very human friendly, for that reason, i end up renaming it:

1_YourFirstWebAPI_264797c6-1140-4b92-841b-e86f605c7fbb.wmv

the "1_" is because this video is part of a series of six videos from here: www.asp.net/

ideally, for a series, the file names should group nicely in a folder when saved locally for offline reading.

FWIW
