    I have a spare copy of the best selling ASP.NET Ajax book on Amazon.com ;) If you want I can send that to you.

    You have, what I would term, a very formal turn of phrase not seen in these isles since the old King passed from this world to the next. martin_hughes on VDK

            True:) After a virtually unknown programmer from Australia wrote a nice review and gave a 5 star rating, the book sales rank improved 10 folds. ;)

              I have used Michael Shwarz's api, and examples with success.[^] Actually downloading the API and working with the examples is best way to learn it. For ASP.NET >2 I have found Bob Tabor's[^] videos very helpful. I am not a video person ordinarily but the videos are succinct and get right to the point. 2 cents..

                I found Rama's book to be great. I used that and ajax.asp.net to lean ASP.Net Ajax. There are some great intro videos on that site also.

                    Use the Gaia toolkit (http://ajaxwidgets.com[^]) instead. It will give you everything you need on the codebehind.

                    Cheers, Daaron

                      As it turns out, Rama's in Atlanta - didn't realize that. I knew Nish had moved out here. Methinks a lunch is in order. :)

                              Chris, I found the asp.net/ajax site to be excellent. The videos were all I needed and then some.
