Getting Started with Ajax

I'd like to start working with Ajax in VS 2008 Pro., but it's important that
I not use anything that is not standard with VS 2008 Pro. (with all
installation options selected).

Does anyone have suggestions of good resources I can check out that keep the
extras separate from the standard VS product?

Gee thanks for the help Mark. I didn't know that asking a question about
the default features of VS 2008 would warrant such a response. Did it ever
occur to you that sometimes development is done in environments that are
dictated by the Enterprise and that developers are not free to just add new
software because someone in a newsgroup told them to?

as adding extras is not an option in my business environment.

Even if those extras are partially written by (and fully approved by)
Microsoft, and specifically designed to be added into VS.NET...?

Yes.

Well, best of luck to you, then - you're really going to need it...

Why are you not writing your apps in Notepad, AAMOI...?

>What is so terribly difficult to understand about that?

Because it's unbelievably short-sighted...
Perhaps, but it's not my decision to make and it is counter prodcutive to
tell me what I "should" install when I've already told you that I can't.
>
The AJAX Control Toolkit is specifically designed to be an add-on to
Visual Studio.NET to make development of AJAX solutions easier - how on
earth can that possibly be a bad thing...?
I don't know, but as I've said repeatedly, it's not within my control, so
the point is mute.
>
What about Web Deployment Projects? Are you not "allowed" to use those
either...?
No, as a matter of fact, I'm not since all deployment is done via Tivoli
pushes.

Then I would respectfully suggest that you find another job ASAP, as whoever
has imposed this laughable restriction on you is seriously hindering your
career...

There's a world of difference from installing some 3rd-party add-on that
you've found on tucows and installing a companion toolkit made by Microsoft
specifically to be used in conjunction with another Microsoft product...

You, as a developer, are being prevented from developing the best solution
because you are not allowed (by someone who clearly hasn't the remotest
understanding of any of this) to use the tools specifically designed for the
job...

That would be akin to preventing XP users from installing the latest service
pack because it didn't come with the original release...

Then you obviously don't comprehend English Bruce. I did not say that I
wanted to keep the extra features separate, as you say, I said I wanted
resources that keep the extras separate.

Now, you can sling insults all you want, but that doesn't change the simple
question I asked and the fact that you haven't provided anything that
resembles an answer to it.

And, what part of "but it's important that I not use anything that is not
standard with VS 2008 Pro." did you not understand?

It's obvious that you are just going on the offensive here because you have
no defense. You screwed up and posted a reply that has no bearing on the
question and you would rather call people names than be of any genuine help.

It was a simple enough question.

Sorry, got the name wrong. It's Barrie that has not understood English,
been rude, and of no help.

My apologies to the Bruces out there.

Hi! I have a pretty simple AJAX request that just GETs the content of a page depending on a name that is fed to it. I'm parsing the page in quite a complex way, so I'm using the DOM to make it a bit easier. Having created my parser, I realised that document.getElementById() doesn't work (>.<), because I'm trying to use it on the AJAX response, which isn't the document. So I tried just referring to the AJAX response variable, then realised...
