Welcome to the AJAX Control Toolkit! The AJAX Control Toolkit is a joint project between the community and Microsoft. Built upon the ASP.NET 2.0 AJAX Extensions, the Toolkit aims to be the biggest and best collection of web-client components available. The Toolkit addresses three needs. First it gives website developers a place to get components to make their web applications spring to life, second it gives a set of great examples for those wishing to write client-side code, and third it is a place for the best script developers to get their work highlighted. Interested in contributing? Click here to find out how. Check out some Community controls that provide solutions for Toolkit wishlist items. Need more info on the Toolkit?
- Sample WebSite: Interactive sample pages for all the Toolkit components be found here
- Forum: Questions about the Toolkit can be asked at the ASP.NET Forums.
- Toolkit Bugs: If you're using the Toolkit and have found a bug, check out the "Issue Tracker" section. Here are some guidelines on how to open bugs:
- Users opening bugs should add a simple code repro, specify toolkit release number, browser information and forum post links if applicable for quicker and easier resolution of bugs.
- Questions revolving around tailoring controls to perform specific actions should be posted on the forums before opening a bug under issue tracker. This will allow the community to participate by providing suggestions and workarounds if possible. In addition to that, the community and the toolkit team will be able to point you to known issues and work items if applicable. If the forum thread comes to a consensus that there is an underlying problem/need for support in the toolkit for that particular issue and it is not being tracked, then a work item should be opened with a link to the forum post.
- Latest Toolkit bits: If you're wanting to download the latest stable bits, use the "Releases" tab, and if you want to get the latest source code bits, check out the "Source Code" tab.
- Prerequisites: Downloading the Toolkit project requires that you have installed the VS 2005 Web Application Projects (WAP) update, available at (note there are two downloads, a VS 2005 update and the main WAP update). However, if you install Visual Studio Service Pack 1 then the WAP update is included in it and need not be installed separately.
