Trouble getting AJAX Extension 1.0 to work in VWD

I have installed the ASP.NET 2.0 AJAX Extension 1.0 on my computer. I tried creating an AJAX enabled web application in Visual Web Developer and the UpdatePanel controls along with all the other new AJAX keywords were not recognised even though the toolbox had been updated with the controls. I thought it might be my errors in the code, so I downloaded the sample code for the ToDo list application tutorial onwww.asp.net/ajax and I had the same problem.

That way I can be sure that it is my computer! I have Microsoft .NET Framework 1.0, 1.1, 2.0 and 3.0 installed. I have tried a reinstall of AJAX Extension 1.0 and have made sure that I have selected 'AJAX Enabled project' at the start up screen.

What is the problem?

Check out this link

Sorry but that really wasn't that helpful! I just have the AJAX Extensions 1.0 NOT The Control Toolkit. I can't get the first bit to work so I can't use the toolkit anyway! When I tried installing the vsi file for the toolkit it didn't install the components properly.

What is the problem?

I think because you r using VWD, you will not be able to install vsi template.

and to use Microsoft AJAX Control you will have to download the toolkit

After downloading the toolkit just follow steps from above link

in "Configure Visual Studio 2005 and Visual Web Developer" section

I hope it helps.

I realised the problem.

I needed to install Service Pack 1 for VWD before it would fully recognise the AJAX Extensions. That solved it and I could then install the control toolkit

Trouble with Control Toolkit

Hello,

I am using the ASP.NET Ajax Control Toolkit with Visual Web Developer. I am not able to see the controls from the toolkit when I drag and drop. The only way to see the object is to find them in the properties box and adjust properties but not be able actually see them.

It would be appreciated if someone could explain how to install the control toolkit in Visual Web Developer. B/c i feel i have installed in the wrong manner.

Hi,

Everything sounds like it was setup correctly. Most of the components in the Toolkit areExtenderControls which just add new properties to the controls they extend in the designer.

Thanks,
Ted

Thank You that is what I was looking for!
