Conventions

In this book, you will find a number of styles of text that distinguish between different kinds of information. Here are some examples of these styles, and an explanation of their meaning.

Code words in text, database table names, folder names, filenames, file extensions, pathnames, dummy URLs, user input, and Twitter handles are shown as follows: "Now let's create an action method in MoviesController.cs, which calls the GetMovieList BLL method."

A block of code is set as follows:

public class TrailerBO
{
    public string MovieName { get; set; }
    public string VideoUrl { get; set; }
}

When we wish to draw your attention to a particular part of a code block, the relevant lines or items are set in bold:

<!-- Movies main view --->
<div data-role="view" id="mt-home-main-view" data-title="Movies"
        data-init="MovieTickets.movieList.initialize"
        data-model="MovieTickets.movieList.viewModel"
        data-layout="mt-main-layout" class="no-backbutton">

Any command-line input or output is written as follows:

customEvent fired
customEvent fired with data: Kendo UI is cool!

New terms and important words are shown in bold. Words that you see on the screen, in menus or dialog boxes for example, appear in the text like this: Two buttons, Open Left and Open Right, are placed on the NavBar widget in the layout of the views, which can be clicked to open the Drawer widgets as shown in the following code:
