Atlas July CTP...

In case you haven’t seen there is a new release of the Atlas Framework for July (just barely July, IMO)…   With each release I test my instructions for enabling an existing site which can be found here.

Hopefully they have fixed my Safari issue (of course, it might help if I told them about it).


BTW, I recently had to do some work on a 1.1 site which was using Ajax Pro which sadly has no update-like panel.  The site notoriously has postback all over the place, so I went in search for something to replace this evil behavior.  I’m sure you’ve all heard about it by now, but there is an open source project called Magic Ajax which has an AjaxPanel which operates very similar to the UpdatePanel.  If you are like me and can’t live without the UpdatePanel, but can’t use Atlas then check out this tool.  It is very nice!  Here’s the URL.  It hasn’t been updated for a bit, but it worked absolutely awesome for me.

It seems as though the guys over at Magic Ajax heard your call and have released an update today!

Hopefully they haven't broken the fact that they work with Ajax.Net Pro (My very brief testing shows that both projects will co-exist in the same project rather nicely).

Check out Anthem http://www.anthemdotnet.com/ Its smarter than Atlas if you talk about just make out-of-band requests. Its has UpdatePanel style component but much simpler to use. In fact I found Anthem more stable and with more cross browser capabilities than Atlas for 1.1 and 2.0 apps.

I'm well aware of Anthem and will be playing with it shortly....  I just choose to work with MS stuff because it will eventually be the one everyone uses...
