Gaia Ajax Web Widgets for ASP.NET 2.0

is the first Ajax library to not re-render HTML in update divs

  • Have most of the ASP.NET controls wrapped in derived controls
  • Also have some more advanced Ajax controls like AutoCompleter, Menu and Window
  • Compatible with both normal ASP.NET and ASP.NET Ajax
  • No JavaScript required to use
  • 100% WYSIWYG and RAD
  • Free to download (registering required)
  • Follows the complete ASP.NET Page syclus (in server code it will "appear" to be a normal postback)
  • Does not re-render the HTML in update divs

The last point is crucial in the design of Gaia Ajax Widgets since it's the basis for creating stateful controls which are also dynamically changeable. This is in most other Ajax framework an "either nor" option since mostly in other frameworks you'll have to choose if you want your widget to be updateable in Ajax Callbacks or if it should be possible to keep state. Gaia Ajax Widgets does not re-render HTML on return of your Ajax Request and therefor you can attach events to the DHTML controls on the client without being afraid of your event listeners being dropped when the server returns a "new set" of HTML and replaces your existing control with its attached events. This is crucial in constructing things like AutoCompleters where you want to be able to surfe the auto completion data from an event in your page and still be able to menipulate properties in other controls in that very same event handler etc...

Ajaxium - AJAX, ASP.NET 1.x/2.0 (from January 2006)

is the universal AJAX container for all ASP.NET pages and controls. In contrast to other AJAX-based approaches and huge , sites powered by Ajaxium remain accessible to all search engines and old browsers due to an automatic and silent degradation to the classic ASP.NET.

Ajaxium replaces ASP.NET postbacks by AJAX, transforming existing ASP.NET applications to Web 2.0 without JavaScript callbacks, callback-panels or server-side coding. Designed as an ultimate solution for ASP.NET developers, Ajaxium is compatible with all browsers supported by ASP.NET.

  • Enables AJAX for ASP.NET controls without using any additional panels or controls placed on the ASP.NET form.
  • Supports all browsers which lack required features owing to a graceful automatic degradation to the classic ASP.NET mode. Thus, Ajaxium-powered sites work even when JavaScript is disabled or the browser doesn't support the XmlHttpRequest object.
  • Ajaxium-powered sites are indexed by all search engines. This is achieved by a graceful degradation to the classic ASP.NET mode performed automatically for all remote clients who have no JavaScript support. Since search engines ignore all JavaScript code, they do not see Ajaxium at all. Being invisible and leaving HTML source untouched, Ajaxium helps search engines to index the website.
  • There is no need for developers to define explicitly which panels must be updated even for optimization purposes. Ajaxium automatically detects changed regions and performs an optimal update of single panels, multiply panels or the whole ASP.NET form. Ajaxium even automatically rewrites the entire document content if changes occur outside the form and document body (for example, in the document header).
  • Even if additional panels are used to reduce page flickering in old browsers, Ajaxium always analyzes the whole content of the web page. If updates must be applied outside all defined panels, Ajaxium applies them for the ASP.NET main form or rewrites the entire document.
  • Supports transition from one ASP.NET page to another.
  • Allows you to use traditional ASP.NET postbacks with AJAX in any combinations.
  • If a server-side error occurs or if the server returns an unexpected response (for example, a default error page), Ajaxium replaces the current document with a returned response, making the response accessible to the developer.
  • Supports all ASP.NET server-side features and technologies, including data binding, session states, authorization, etc.
  • Supports ASP.NET cookieless sessions. As a result, applications that do not use cookies can be just as well AJAX-enabled.
  • Capable to revert to a traditional ASP.NET - both at run-time and during each separate session.
  • While storing required information in the session state, Ajaxium gracefully handles session timeouts and all related pitfalls.
  • Compresses viewstate and reduces HTML traffic.
  • , and Downloadable Starter Kits available at

To date, Ajaxium enables AJAX on Internet Explorer 5 and above, Mozilla FireFox 1 and above (as well as other browsers which use Gecko engine), Opera 8.50, Konqueror 3+ and Safari 1.2+ (as well as other KHTML-based browsers). All other browsers view Ajaxium-powered websites as classic ASP.NET websites. Even if your favorite browser is Lynx you can access any page at an Ajaxium-powered site.

Anthem.Net for ASP.NET 1.x/2.0

is Jason Diamonds' new version of a long-established Ajax library, now a SourceForge open-source project.

  • Anthem.NET provides a set of ajax-enabled controls inherited from ASP.NET server controls, with most AJAX behaviours pre-built, avoiding lots of client Javascript. It supports Viewstate so that you can actually modify server controls (either Anthem controls, or ASP.NET controls inside an Anthem control, e.g. panel) in your serverside code, in C# or VB without having to mess about in JavaScript.
  • Unlike some other Ajax implementations the system supports callbacks for Anthem controls that are inside user controls, and even for wizards and master pages.
  • Binary versions for use in both .NET 1.1 and 2.0
  • Open-source license from Jason Diamond.

ASP.NET AJAX (codename prev. 'Atlas', from late 2005)

is Microsoft's in-progress AJAX project.

  • ASP.NET Atlas is a package of new Web development technologies that integrates an extensive set of client script libraries with the rich, server-based development platform of ASP.NET 2.0.
  • "With Atlas, you can take advantage of the best of ASP.NET and server-side code while doing much of the work in the browser, enabling a richer user experience."
  • Commercial (license terms unclear at time of writing) by Microsoft.

  • Known browsers: IE5+, Firefox1+, NS6
  • Server-side support: ASP.NET, Mono XSP, Cassini, Apache (modMono) .NET Framework 1.1+
  • Attribute Driven
  • Asynchronous and Synchronous methods mapped directly from Javascript proxy objects to the server
  • Supports all .NET Types and custom classes mapped to JSON objects on the client
  • Uses JSON instead of XML

ComfortASP.NET for ASP.NET 1.1/2.0 - AJAX for all

is an approach that lets Developers rely on pure ASP.NET programming while offering AJAX features.

  • Internally ComfortASP.NET is using AJAX (DHTML, JavaScript, XMLHTTP) to implement these features - but the Web Developer only implements pure Server Side ASP.NET!
  • Automatically transfers only changes between ASP.NET postbacks, this leads to:
    • Significant faster response for low bandwidth connections
    • Reduce HTML traffic (up to 90%, depending on new postback data)
  • Reduce page reloads and use hidden postbacks instead
  • AJAX / DHTML-like client experience (but without programming any AJAX / DHTML directly)
  • Keep browser history free of postback entries ("Back Button" no more irritates your users)
  • Auto disable form and prevent user input while postback or multiple form postbacks
  • Control web client scroll position and focus from server side code
  • Switch back at all times to original ASP.NET when you need it -- even dynamically at runtime
  • Not supported by Mono
