    A great read. A must read for AJAX developers! ASP. NET AJAX is a free framework for quickly creating efficient and interactive Web applications that work across all popular browsers. This book will teach you: 1) Create next-generation interfaces with reusable AJAX components. Enhance existing pages using powerful AJAX controls with support for all modern browsers. 2) Access remote services and data from the browser without tons of complicated script. 3) Take advantage of the improved efficiency and ease of use in Visual Studio 2008, with its built-in support for ASP. NET AJAX, improved JavaScript support, and a new Web page designer interface. It starts you off with a intro into asp. net AJAX library and moves into a light introduction with JavaScript. Then moves into the core of the AJAX functionality with using several examples of xmlhttprequest object and transferring data using both JSON and xml. It then leads you to the next logical step of the calling web services and makes great use of the inherit asp. net members and profiling functionality ALL THROUGH JAVA SCRIPT. Amazing really no more calls backs to the server to find out if they are a member. It then leads you into the Next big step of the asp. net AJAX functionality which is the control toolkit. This is a absolutely free web controls that just work and christen does a great job at showing you how to do this in easy steps. It wraps with showing the the asp. net futures section that is iffy at best. It uses an xml based approach to forming JavaScript and although very cool I don’t believe will reach the production release. Overall this book rocks and should be read by all interface designers

    This is a great book if you just started learning AJAX and wanted to get a good overview of all the aspects of it. This book touches very lightly on all subjects of how AJAX is implemented in the real world. I would recommending starting with this book, but If you’ve already been working on AJAX I would recommend ASP. NET AJAX Programmer’s Reference.
