    The Ajax Papers: Part II

    The Ajax PapersPart II: Updating the PageDownload formatted PDF version for easy readingIn part one of this series on Ajax we looked at Ajax basics. What it is. How it works. Where it executes. We learned that Ajax communication (in its most basic form) only takes a few lines of JavaScript to work. If Ajax is so easy, what’s all the fuss about Ajax being so hard? Even though Ajax in its purest sense just defines a method for communicating asynchronously with the server, it is relatively useless unless you do something with the information returned from the server. That “something” usually means that you need to...

Many of us (“us” being ASP.NET developers) probably decided to use Ajax because Telerik’s radAjax component made it very easy to add Ajax to our existing projects. We figured what the heck?

    radControls and ASP.NET AJAX RTM

    As some of you probably know telerik was very quick to ensure that radControls for ASP.NET are fully compatible with the official v1.0 release of ASP.NET AJAX. (The full announcement) We have had the opportunity to follow the development of this new framework quite closely and to hear a wide range of comments on the new extension for the ASP.NET platform.

    .NET 1.x support in radControls for ASP.NET

    The time has come when we need to make a decision that may affect some of you (most of you) - we need to make a decision whether or not to stop adding new features and products to the .NET 1.x version of rad Controls for ASP.NET.
