Release Notes
Version 1.0.10920.0
It has two flavors that work against two versions of the .NET Framework:
- ASP.NET AJAX version 1.0 and .NET Framework 2.0
- .NET Framework 3.5 Beta 2 (includes ASP.NET AJAX), details
below
The TemplateVSI project has a dependency on vjslib.dll which is a part of the Visual
J# Redistributable Package. If you would like to build that project successfully
then please install the package from
here.
General fixes:
- Controls with Embedded styles (Calendar, Tabs and Slider): Toolkit
controls no longer need explicit style references when loaded asynchronously. For
example, if a Calendar control is placed inside an UpdatePanel and made visible
on an UpdatePanel postback, the embedded styles are now loaded properly.
- PopupBehavior positioning (AutoComplete, Calendar, DropDown, HoverMenu,
ListSearch, PopupControl and ValidatorCallout): PopupBehavior now respects
the position of its parent element even when the browser window is very narrow or
the parent element is close the window edge.
- Focusing extended controls (Accordion, CollapsiblePanel, DropShadow, Tabs):
Pages that use Toolkit controls which re-parent DOM elements can use a workaround
to focus a specific element on page load. The new method Utility.SetFocusOnLoad ensures
that the desired control receives focus.
Control specific fixes:
- Calendar: Property to specify the position of Calendar, a default
date feature that allows the calendar to start out with a selected date, and a consistent
show, hide and focus story that makes the Calendar user experience more intuitive.
- ModalPopup: Ability to disable repositioning of the ModalPopup in response
to window resize and scroll.
- ConfirmButton: ModalPopup functionality now supported in addition
to the regular windows alert dialog.
- MaskedEdit: Extended Textbox no longer uses Invariant culture if
no CultureName is specified and falls back to the Page Culture.
- AutoComplete: Allow users to associate additional
data with the AutoComplete suggestions.
- Slider: Slider can be easily customized using its various CSS properties.

Known Issues:
Toolkit for .NET Framework 3.5 Beta 2 and Visual
Studio 2008 Beta 2:
This is the second Toolkit version that also has a flavor that is supported on .NET
3.5 Framework Beta 2 and Visual Studio 2008 Beta 2. If you are trying out Beta 2
then you can also try out the Toolkit with it.
Note: This Toolkit flavor is
only for users who are using
Beta 2. If you are not using Beta 2 and you attempt to use this flavor of the Toolkit
against .NET Framework 2.0 and Visual Studio 2005 it is
not supported and
will not work.
Setting up the environment to use the Toolkit with Beta 2:
- Follow the instructions to download and install Beta 2 from
here.
- Download the AjaxControlToolkit-Framework3.5.zip or AjaxControlToolkit-Framework3.5-NoSource.zip
from the
Toolkit Releases page.
Features:
- JavaScript IntelliSense support: We have added
reference tags to all Toolkit JavaScript files that enables you to take advantage of
new features in Visual Studio 2008 Beta 2. With the multi-targeting support in
this Visual Studio Beta, IntelliSense will be available for the ASP.NET AJAX 1.0
flavor of the Toolkit as well. This
article discusses the reference tag feature in detail.
- Extender designer support: Enhanced designer support for Toolkit
controls using the new "Add Extender" user interface.
Known issues with the Toolkit and Beta 2:
- Pages with controls using Toolkit Animations may not work properly if edited in
design mode. This is a known issue with Beta 2 and should be fixed in future releases.
