Server-side code & javascript

[Roshawn Dawson]

Hi,

Is it possible to perform a server-side operation, and return the
results of that operation to the client via Javascript without a
postback to the server?

Forgive me if I sound stupid but I'm a newbie.

Thanks,
Roshawn

A lot of people ask, and it is possible via XmlHttp which is supported by
most browsers. A good place to start is:

ASP.NET 2.0 will have much improved support for this kind of thing.
The technology is called Script Callbacks.
Here's more information:
