What is the MS version of "Ajax techniques"?

I know that the new Ajax techniques(used by Google Map, http://maps.google.com/) can provide rich user experience directly on browser and easy deployment.  As I know, MS smart-client need to be install out of browser.  I therefore want to know the Microsoft version of Ajax.
Thanks.

    Sorry about that.

    Jokes aside. If any of the the two first methods work for your scenario, I think they are the best way. Secrets just complicates things...

    Happy scripting

    MSFT has some pretty good & simple walkthroughs on getting started in Atlas...you should be up and running quickly!

    It is called ATLAS, and you can do it with Visual Studio 2005. Since this is the first release, I would handcraft a solution myself. I have used "AJAX"/lookalikes for years.
    I have used a few different ways. Here is two.

    1) Have an IFRAME show the contents that is differing
     - Open http://www.firmakatalogen.com/, type microsoft in the box and see the results coming without reloading the page

    2) Have contets loaded with an <IE:DOWNLOAD> control

    3) My secret

  • Wai Loon

    No, that is called Client Script Callback.
    Please follow the link of Google map and experience Ajax.
