I can't find any equivalent to the '

Author Name Status Posted Time Tzagustein Miereon 6/3/2008 3:30:21 AM Author is Offline Hi all, After reading the ASP.net website for a while, as far as I can tell (unless I am missing something here), Microsoft says that you should not use the AJAX Control Toolkit if you're using ASP.net 3.5, because they've implemented the AJAX functionality in ASP.net 3.5 itself.  Fine.  The problem is, I can't seem to find any equivalent to the '<ajaxToolkit:TabPanel' control built in to ASP.net 3.5.  IntelliSense gives me an '<asp:Calendar' control, but nothing like a '<asp:TabPanel' control.  Could anyone tell me whether there is an equivalent to '<ajaxToolkit:TabPanel' and, if so, what is it?  If there isn't, why is Microsoft claiming they have re-implemented this entire toolkit in ASP.net 3.5? Pls help. thanks Tzang.

Sanju Somasekhar 6/3/2008 4:30:44 AM ASP.NET AJAX is built into the framework 3.5 but t he toolkit is not. If you are using a 3.5 project then you'll want to have the 3.5 version of the toolkit installed.

Vargassa De'Silva 6/3/2008 4:31:14 AM Tzang, You no longer need to choose the "Ajax-Enabled Website" template because every website created with VS2008 is, by nature, Ajax-enabled.  The Toolkit is a separate set of tools that can be used or not used at the user's discretion.  They still need to be downloaded and installed if you do.  Just make sure you get the correct version for VS2008/.NET 3.5.  There are two separate versions now.  The other is the old one for VS2005.   Post Comments Re: I can't find any equivalent to the 'it:TabPanel' control built in to ASP.net 3.5. Velveit Royston 6/3/2008 4:33:13 AM There's no tab control built into .NET 3.5. You need the one in the toolkit (which works really well, by the way). As Disturbed Buddha suggested, the article you read sounds like it was referring to the fact that you don't need the Ajax Extensions anymore, since that is built into the 3.5 .NET Framework. The Toolkit, Ajax Futures, and a few other things are still separate downloads. To complicate things, they now come in different versions depending on your IDE and the version of the framework you are working with. A little bit of DLL Hell, risen from the grave. Post Comments
