AJax newbie
-
I'm reading up on the ajax documentaiton and had a question on partial page updates... 1) So do partial page updates only target controls that reside within an Update Panel? 2) Even if a partial page update occurs, isn't a postback really truely occurring behind the scenes? Your browser doesn't appear to do a full postback and blink, but I'm guessing it is still doing a postback. Thanks

I am confussed by what you mean with this.

That's the point and beauty of Ajax is that it is behind the scenes. To view the 'response' from the server when an Ajax is being used use a Firefox add-on called Firebug. Example Screenshot.[^]
hmmm pie

Ajax will target whichever html tag you want it to. I would recommmend looking at javascripts innerhtml before trying to dive into ajax.
