    How to use Ajax Controls with umbraco 4.5.x?

    We have successfully migrated a website developed in 4.0.3 to 4.5. But since we have used Ajax Controls in few forms (eg. ValidateCalloutExtender) & as Umbraco 4.5 doesn't support AjaxControlToolKit What will an alternative solution?

    I included the latest and greatest AjaxControlToolkit in an Umbraco 4.5 installation and didn't ran into issues?

    Did you even try to use it?

    Hi Ratish,

    When you say migrated from 4.0.3 to 4.5 - if it was an upgrade, then you should still have the AjaxControlToolKit assembly in your \bin folder?

    If not, then as kipusoep suggests, try adding it back into the \bin folder.

    The reason it was removed from v4.5 was because it was no longer being used in the Umbraco back-office.  The DLL was quite large, over 1Mb - which was 20% of the overall Umbraco release ... that's a LOT of bloat.  The core team found that they could use alternative jQuery methods/plugins to achieve the same results (plus better performance and smaller filesize)

    Cheers, Lee.

    Hi,

    I was getting empty tree symptom when I migrated from 4.0.3 to 4.5, So I had removed the AjaxControlToolKit assembly from the bin folder as suggested here

    http://our.umbraco.org/wiki/about/roadmap/umbraco-45/upgrading-to-umbraco-45

    Now as per your suggestion, I have added assembly back to the bin folder & it works like charm.

    Thanks

    Ratish
