  • ASP.NET developers will learn to add Ajax techniques into the ASP.NET applications by prebuilding some of the underlying components and using a standardized tool-set


From the Back Cover

ASP.NET programmers are familiar with the rich server-side programming in the ASP.NET/.NET Framework. ASP.NET AJAX adds many similar client-side features giving ASP.NET developers a feature-rich client-side framework for the first time. This book explains how ASP.NET AJAX simulates many of the rich programming features of the ASP.NET/.NET Framework on the client side. Packed with extensive real-world examples, in-depth descriptions, and code walkthroughs—all tested with both ASP.NET 2.0 and ASP.NET 3.5—this book provides thorough coverage of both the ASP.NET AJAX client-side and server-side frameworks. You'll learn how these frameworks harmonize to meetyour AJAX-enabled application needs. This hands-on approach gives you the skills and knowledge you need to develop real ASP.NET AJAX applications.

User Review:

The ASP.NET Ajax library is more than UpdatePanel. UpdatePanel gets you up and running in Ajax quickly, but it is not true Ajax. Ajax is about re-emphasize client, empowering modern day browser to take up more work of user interaction. In one word, Ajax is about JavaScript. Microsoft's ASP.NET Ajax library, like any other mature Ajax libraries out there, provides a rich framework of client side JavaScript. And if you build on top it, you need to understand this layer to be able to fully leverage it. And this book provides much-needed help with understanding this library. Clearly author understands it and covers a lot of ground. MSDN is still catching up on this library, so if you are living on the cutting-edge of ASP.NET Ajax, get a copy of this book.
A caution though: This book is not for beginner of JavaScript. You need to have fairly good understand of JavaScript as a language to fully appreciate the help this book provides.
