Since this is my first post, let me introduce myself shortly. My name is Noam Lampert. I am leading the Grasshopper R&D team.

A few weeks ago, we have begun implementation of the ASP.NET AJAX API. This will enable Grasshopper users to develop ASP.NET applications that also use the ASP.NET AJAX extensions and control toolkit.

We have begun by developing an initial implementation for the infrastructure and basic atoms: ScriptManager, UpdatePanel, UpdateProgress, and Timer controls.

Using this implementation we have also ported the AJAX Control Toolkit (source available at CodePlex user the Ms-PL) and have begun running the sample web site. As you can see below, the sample web site is beginning to work and we are currently continuing to iron out the bugs. 

 

As usual, the development of this library is shared with the mono project. You can download the source code and view our progress at

 svn://anonsvn.mono-project.com/source/trunk/mcs/class/System.Web.Extensions

We still have much work remaining on stabilization and QA but I will be hope to see this exciting feature released soon with the next release of Grasshopper.
