application, regardless of the framework (for example, ASP.NET AJAX) you end up using. For
completeness, though, let’s briefly review the steps required to use the object in a sample
ASP.NET 2.0 page. The same code can be used with ASP.NET 1.x as well. The following code
represents the minimal engine you need for building homemade AJAX solutions.
Note : Although a homemade AJAX framework might not be recommended, it’s not impossible
to write. The fact that more than 100 AJAX frameworks have been counted just demonstrates
that writing AJAX homemade solutions is not a mission-impossible task. Personally,
I would consider it only as a way to enrich existing applications with quick and dirty AJAX
functionality limited to placing remote, non-browser-led calls.
