I agree. OTOH, I just added AJAX to an existing .Net page, and it was
an almost trivial process to get it up and working. They've encapsulated
the AJAX functionality into a pair of controls, and all you have to do is:
- Add a ScriptManager control to your page (no options need be defined)
- Put all the controls you want AJAX to update in an UpdatePanel control
- Optionally, add an UpdateProgress control to request users wait while
you are "AJAXing" behind the scenes.
(McCarroll's corollary to Murphy's Law: Any statement that begins with
"All you have to do is ..." is a lie. ;-)
