There's a download with ASP.NET AJAX 1.0 project templates for Visual Studio 2008 so you don't have to mess with the Web.config.

Microsoft ASP.NET 2.0 AJAX Templates for Visual Studio 2008

Have fun with it!

Hey man, you are a star.

I poked aroung Google after your previous post and have got it all working now with help from the following page.

http://asp.net/ajax/documentation/live/ConfiguringASPNETAJAX.aspx

Basically re-iterating what you have posted above with some added goodies.

I assumed (incorrectly) that when the site was created, you got all the web.config bits set up for you. In VS2005 when you created a special ASP.NET AJAX enabled site, your web.config was updated correctly, now in VS2008, you dont get the option to create an AJAX enabled site, so I guess you have to hack the web.config file yourself.

All good learning stuff.

Thanks again

Mike

At a minimum, you need to reference the ScriptResource handler at least so that ASP.NET will know how to get the ASP.NET AJAX scripts from the System.Web.Extensions assembly.

Reference: Configuring ASP.NET AJAX [ASP.NET AJAX Documentation]

IIS 6.0-style Web.config (add to configuration/system.web)

<httpHandlers>
  <remove verb="*" path="*.asmx"/>
  <add verb="*" path="*.asmx" validate="false" type="System.Web.Script.Services.ScriptHandlerFactory, System.Web.Extensions, Version=1.0.61025.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=31bf3856ad364e35"/>
  <add verb="*" path="*_AppService.axd" validate="false" type="System.Web.Script.Services.ScriptHandlerFactory, System.Web.Extensions, Version=1.0.61025.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=31bf3856ad364e35"/>
  <add verb="GET,HEAD" path="ScriptResource.axd" type="System.Web.Handlers.ScriptResourceHandler, System.Web.Extensions, Version=1.0.61025.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=31bf3856ad364e35" validate="false"/>
</httpHandlers>

</httpModules>

IIS 7.0-style Web.config (add to configuration)

<system.webServer>
  <handlers>
    <remove name="WebServiceHandlerFactory-Integrated"/>
    <add name="ScriptHandlerFactory" verb="*" path="*.asmx" preCondition="integratedMode" type="System.Web.Script.Services.ScriptHandlerFactory, System.Web.Extensions, Version=1.0.61025.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=31bf3856ad364e35"/>

Thanks again.

No I am not referencing any HTTP Handlers or Modules explicitly is the web.config.

I have noticed that is added an Assembly into the <Compilation> section in the web.config itself,

file as shown below.

xml version="1.0"?><configuration>

appSettings/>

connectionStrings/>

system.web>

<!--

Set compilation debug="true" to insert debugging

symbols into the compiled page. Because this

affects performance, set this value to true only

during development.

-->

compilation debug="false">

assemblies>

add assembly="System.Web.Extensions, Version=1.0.61025.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=31BF3856AD364E35"/></assemblies>
</compilation>

<!--

The <authentication> section enables configuration

of the security authentication mode used by

ASP.NET to identify an incoming user.

-->

authentication mode="Windows"/>

<!--

The <customErrors> section enables configuration

of what to do if/when an unhandled error occurs

during the execution of a request. Specifically,

it enables developers to configure html error pages

to be displayed in place of a error stack trace.

</customErrors>

Are you referencing ASP.NET AJAX HttpHandlers and HttpModules in your Web.config? It takes more than just adding a reference to the server-side ASP.NET AJAX controls to enable ASP.NET AJAX on a Web site.

You're referencing ASP.NET AJAX 1.0 with your Register directive. Is the site you've developed targeting 3.5?

Thanks,

I am targetting ASP.NET 2.0 presently, does this make a difference ?
