传授关于构建丰富Web 2.0风格的相关工作经验并非易事。本书提供微软ASP.NET AJAX 1.0实用而全面的介绍，与ASP.NET给服务器端开发带来的众多益处一样，该框架给Ajax开发也带来了诸多便利。拥有《ASP.NET AJAX编程》，你将学会如何使用Ajax快速创建专业的动态Web页面。

本书运用大量代码样例，全方位展现该框架的各个关键部分，不仅是那些想在应用程序开发中尝试Ajax的ASP.NET开发者，也是任何对ASP.NET AJAX感兴趣的Web开发者的理想读物，无论他们现在在使用什么开发技术。

《ASP.NET AJAX编程》为你提供：ASP.NET AJAX框架的高级概要；可剪切/粘贴用于个人应用程序的功能代码；JavaScript和Ajax的关键要点，以帮助你理解框架所使用的各项独立技术；反映框架软件包构成的内容编排，包含扩展、控件工具包、Futures CTP和AJAX程序库等；关于如何编写你自己的控件，以及如何向社区工具包贡献代码的说明；将标准AJAX程序库用于其他平台（如 PHP）的方法；用一整章的篇幅讨论使用更新面板（UpdatePanel）控件，让Web页面中的多个部分可以独立更新——该框架最重要的元素之一。

本书此前曾以《Programming Atlas》为名出版，涵盖该微软框架的beta版本，而如今已完全更新并扩展至ASP.NET AJAX 1.0正式发布版。

《ASP.NET AJAX编程》包含了很多难以发现的细节，并通过一些非正式途径完成任务。就这个新框架而言，本书是最理想的知识来源。
