ASP.NET Ajax Preview 5 and Application Services
Recently there was an issue posted to the ASP.NET customer forums where somebody was having problems using Profile Services with ASP.NET Ajax Preview 5. The reason is that the scripts for Application Services have been moved to a separate script file (to improve script download size). We did not include the script in the Preview 5 release however, so if you want to use Preview 5 with Application Services features, you need to work around by taking the Sys.Services code and merging it into the Preview 5 MicrosoftAjax.js file. For your convenience and at Dave Reed’s suggestion, I’ve gone ahead and done this, so if you are targeting this scenario, use the new versions of MicrosoftAjax.js and MicrosoftAjax.debug.js that are included in the zip file attached to this post.

ASP.NET Ajax Preview 5 and UpdatePanel
Many of you have probably heard that we’ve released ASP.NET Ajax Preview 5 on Codeplex, and it’s available here. Aside from all the cool updates to the codebase, Preview 5 also includes some updated samples, as well as support for UpdatePanel when using ASP.NET 3.5 SP1.

Coding QA Podcast and ASP.NET AJAX
The kind folks over at Coding QA Podcast (www.codingqa.com) did an interview with me yesterday, where I talk about some of the challenges with testing and building Microsoft AJAX and talk a little bit about myself. There’s also a brief discussion of the Lightweight Test Automation Framework, and the new IE8 Debugger. I forget what the questions are every so often, but in my unbiased opinion it’s a pretty good listen ;). Click here to jump to the Coding QA Podcast site.

ASP.NET AJAX Preview 4 Samples
Politian has posted a lot of samples on using the new ADO.NET Data Services features in ASP.NET AJAX Preview 4 (in fact, at the time of this posting, the entire blog is dedicated to Preview 4!). He walks through some basic scenarios, but then goes into detail about interesting sample topics as he builds his MIX Presenter Application. Highlights thus far:

ASP.NET AJAX 4.0 New Features and Video Walkthrough
10-4 and Jonathan Carter just did a great episode where they walk through creating a sample with ADO.NET Data Services, and showcase some of the things that have changed since we released ASP.NET AJAX Preview 3. There's some great coverage on DataView, AdoNetDataContext (formerly AdoNetDataSource), and bindings. Jonathan also goes through command bubbling and item selection integration with master-detail DataViews. The cool thing is that Jonathan uses imperative code, as opposed to the declarative syntax that I've gone over before in my ADO.NET post. The choice is largely a preference, but both methods are perfectly valid. The video is about 27 minutes long, but is well worth it. Silverlight is required, click here for the video.

Working with ADO.NET Data Services in AJAX
If you haven't heard, we've shipped ASP.NET AJAX CodePlex Preview 3. It's live and available here. I'm really excited about this release because it includes client-side support for ADO.NET Data Services, replacing the AJAX Client Library for ADO.NET Data Services that we had on CodePlex before.
