Examples

The following code example shows a locally defined RenderWebPartForEdit method that renders a Web Part by calling the RenderWebPartForEdit method of the Web Part Pages service through a proxy. It then displays the Web Part properties, the property values, and the rendered HTML. This code example and the proxy are part of a larger example provided for the Web Part Pages service.
