PP: AJAX Control Consumption

[prabhupr]

Hi Folks

For me to use Ajax (Ajax Control) do I need to download something in
particular, any framework and speicial assembly....

Can somebody please point me to some basics on AJAX, on how to use it
(may be sample code)

"AJAX" is basically a marketing - driven acronymn that really refers to
remote scripting using XMLHTTP. There are several "Frameworks" that make it
easy to use with ASP.NET. One poster already gave you a link to the ATLAS
framework; this works only with ASP.NET 2.0 and is not in release yet
(although you can certainly use it on a web site).

Two other frameworks I would recommend, both of which preserve the stateful
page model, are Anthem.net, and MagicAjax. Both work with either ASP.NET 1.1
or 2.0, both are easy to learn, and both a free, open-source offerings. They
can be found on Sourceforge.net
