Woohoo! I did it! It took a week but I just migrated from ASP.NET AJAX to jQuery
- by Scott Whigham on May 7, 2009 4:23 PMI’m so happy. ASP.NET Ajax Control Toolkit’s controls are very handy and a gentle introduction to Ajax but they are:
- Slow
- Unreliable and unstable (search for ScriptResource.axd error returns over 12,000 hits and a common assembly error has 18,000)
- F-A-T
I’ve known for a while that I wanted to use jquery but I have lots and lots of pages that were using the old Ajax Control Toolkit and I’ve procrastinated lol. I’m rewriting the world’s best online video training company’s site now (shameless plug – I work for LearnItFirst).
Now look – I didn’t do this on a whim. I tried everything I could to boost performance of ASP.NET Ajax Control Toolkit and to increase it’s stability – but it just wasn’t good enough. I used the ToolkitScriptManager, for example, but it didn’t make a huge difference.
While I don’t agree with Adam Kahtava who wrote, “As a ASP.NET developer I'm embarrassed by the ASP.NET AJAX Framework”, I am more than a little unhappy with it.
Good luck to you
If you want to replace the ASP.NET Ajax Control Toolkit, good luck! Since Microsoft announced the jquery was shipping with ASP.NET MVC, you’re be lucky to find anything that doesn’t feature both jquery and the toolkit. I found it quite difficult to piece it all together. I ripped out the Toolkit completely; just jquery for me!
In the future, I plan to blog (and post jquery training videos) about how to replace the ASP.NET Ajax Control Toolkit with jquery. I have lots and lots of lessons learned!
