I would like to create a user interface like the iGoogle or facebook profiles where the end user can customize the layout. Move components around, resize e t c
Do you have any suggestions on resources/code examples in order to create something like that?

http://jqueryui.com/demos/sortable/#portlets - i think it will be good starting point for pure AJAX solution.
If you're using ASP.NET, as you say you are, look into something like ASP.NET Web Parts or dropthings. The codeplex site for dropthings is here.
Before making any decision do checkout extjs Layout Managers from the left navigation.

I´m starting to develop a application with Xamarin.forms we have the mockups and we need to implement somethink like a pull up menu / accordion menu. This component have to show over the content of the main page. I found a sketch from someone who wants to make the same as I, but no one give him a solution
This is the mockup of the component that I want to implement
I´ve searched a lot but i can not find something similar to the component that I want. Can some one please tell me if is possible to have components like this in xamarin? maybe using a external library
Thanks in advance
I would like to show some forms in my Drupal Website in a popup or accordion. I have tried popup module but it shows only for viewing nodes and not adding/editing. How can I do that?
Thanks for your help
This can be done with https://drupal.org/project/popup_forms, but you need to do some programming in order to apply it (i.e. it can't be just configured via admin interface).
maybe this module help you Modal forms
In my personal opinion Popups API is a very good module.You could show the necessary contents that suites your purpose .It is quite easy to use.I think you just need to read the documentation.If you really change this module there are other modules available like Modal forms,Modal Frame API,colorbox, Chaos tool suite etc.You can find a lot of modules needed for your purpose. The following links might help you:
https://drupal.org/project/colorbox
https://drupal.org/project/modal_forms
https://drupal.org/project/modalframe
i'm not sure how to call that. i'm looking for some samples guiding me how to implement a automatic page extend. i'm mean something like the friends list on facebook. first only a few friends are loaded. after you scroll down, some others get loaded.
thx in advance
The solution to your problem relies more on AJAX then anything else.
I suggest using jQuery Ajax, and here is a nice article that will get you started with calling ASP.NET web services via client side script.

If you don't have experience using ajax this will probably be a lot for you to grasp. Especially if you're going to dive in with a feature like you described above.
Edit: It may be more practical to use a plugin to achieve this:
scrolling jQuery plugin
just wondering is there any free tool which can aid in making the GUI/interface layout of asp.net/html forms ? My forms mostly end up in being less user friendly and not good looking at all.
I have been using Bootstrap framework to get my design up to speed in no time. You can use this tool to get forms created in minutes. http://bootsnipp.com/forms?version=3
Why don't you try downloading the Firefox Web Developer Toolbar and use it to reverse-engineer some simple, good looking sites that you come across?

You can use it to grab the entire CSS of any site, or hover over areas of a page and see the various divs and their associated CSS rules highlighted.
Yes that sounds backwards. I want to create an area or frame in my Silverlight app to host another page from my site. I've seen it done before but I can't seem to find any examples.
This way I can control the entire page layout using SL but still use existing aspx pages.
thanks
Yes, it can be done and its quite easy to do. I plan on blogging about my HtmlBrowser control and posting the source. The basics are to make sure the Silverlight control is hosted with the isWindowless parameter enabled and then you can at runtime through the HtmlPage class create an IFRAME element and set the src attribute to the HTML page location. The fun part is getting the sizing right, but its not too difficult.
Follow my blog http://craign.net/ over the next couple of days as I'll post my control.
Will frame break out code break out or not when using this technique.
