Installation Requirements

In order for the ASP.NET Client environment to support AJAX, it requires the AJAX Web extensions to be installed. Refer to the section on Installing the ASP.NET Web Forms Generator for more information on downloading and installing these extensions..The support for AJAX builds on top of the existing ASP.NET Generator. As such, it replaces some existing files with updated versions and include new files required for the Ajax functionality. Below is a list of new files that have been added for the AJAX support in the ASP.NET Client Environment.

A new default startup page has been added which contains the ASP.NET tags for AJAX

support. The following files are installed to the <Client Tools Installation Directory>\ASP.NET Generator\Common\User directory:

A new image file has been added for the ProgressUpdate control defined in the DefaultAJAX.aspx startup page. It is installed in the

<Client Tools Installation Directory>\ASP.NET Generator\Images directory and is called ajax-loader.gif

When the ASP.NET setup script (SetupASPNet.vbs) is executed, these files are copied to the required location in the virtual directory.

Note that the original Default.aspx Web Form is still installed with the product and can be used if you do not need an AJAX capable application
