A Simple AJAX control in ASP.NET 2.0 and C#
Introduction
In this article I will explain how you can easily create an AJAX enabled web site within Visual Studio 2005 utilizing C# and how to utilize the AJAX framework to add a simple control from the list of controls available in the AJAX Control Toolkit.
The AJAX control we will be working with in this article is the “PasswordStrength” control. As mentioned above this control is in the AJAX Control Toolkit we installed in the previous article of this series. We will also learn that the PasswordStrength control can easily secure passwords as they are being entered and notify the user real time as to what else they need to add to their password in order for it to meet your requirements.
In the previous article we learned the following about AJAX and what you can with it?
“ASP.NET AJAX is a free framework for quickly creating efficient and interactive Web applications that work across all popular browsers.”
ASP.NET AJAX:
- Create interfaces with AJAX components that can be reused.
- Upgrade your existing pages with AJAX controls.
- AJAX comes with support for all modern browsers
- AJAX comes as part of Visual Studio 2008 and does not need to be downloaded and installed as in Visual Studio 2005.
What we will learn in this article:
- How to Create an AJAX enabled Web Site
- How to utilize the PasswordStrength control
Please Note:
AJAX functionality is integrated in ASP.NET 3.5 and does not require any additional downloads. If you are using ASP.NET 3.5 this article does not apply to you.
Getting Started with our AJAX Application
Before we begin coding we will need to download the AJAX framework and install it onto our system in order to have the framework available for us to create our first AJAX web project.
In our previous article titled “Getting Started with AJAX, ASP.NET 2.0 and C#“ we went through the steps involved to install AJAX and how to AJAX enable Visual Studio. We explained where to go to find out about AJAX and that you could download step by step tutorials that will guide you through using every control within the AJAX Control Toolkit.
Here is the AJAX web site for you to add to your bookmarks in your favorite browser:
