Hi e,
Basically RadMenu is created and implemented so that only ajaxified web sites can use it. That's why it belongs to the ASP.NET AJAX Suite. If you need to use it for search engines that don't support Ajax then you need to use the ASP.NET Classic Suite and use the RadMenu from there.
Kind regards,

In that case, would it be possible to supply the frameworks that the controls need, but manually? For example, can I put the XmlHttpRequest object on the page and have the controls work correctly?
The problem I'm running into is that the AjaxControlToolkit creates relative urls to it's resources. But the urls need to be fully qualified for our search appliance to work. It's on it's own subdomain within our system. And we can't host any files on the search subdomain.

Could you please be more specific on what that means: "supply the frameworks that the controls need, but manually"?

I guess I was hoping you would know what was involved with that. I know if I want to do Ajax with other technologies like PHP or JSP, I would use the XmlHttpRequest object as the framework or plumbing to handle the requests.
Also, what is the licensing like for the classic version of your controls? Is there a page on your site I can see that?

Hi e,
Thank you for the clarification.
In the first direction - sending a request to the page that will be handled by a RadControl - using a plain XmlHttpRequest object will do the work. However, on the way back, someone has to receive the response and update the respective control(s), which requires initializing and prior to that disposing of the control(s). This is something the AJAX framework is built for and one would have to do the same operations in order to use our controls in this peculiar setup. All in all using the XmlHttpRequest object for these purposes is not supported (whereas for smaller and simpler tasks it is perhaps better than a full-blown framework).
Then to answer your last two questions, you can find more info about the license agreement of RadControls for ASP.NET AJAX and the different packages and support options we provide here:
Best wishes,
