group, is to have a big number of events focusing on the various .NET and
related technologies and especially on Microsoft .NET Framework 3.5 and SQL
Server 2008. To this end, regular monthly events will be scheduled and be

from within our user group and also with invited guest speakers, we will try to
cover many interesting topics.
This
twelfth event will be featured in one interesting session. The topic is “Intro
to AJAX .NET” with level 100-200. The duration of the event will be two hours;
an hour for the presentation and another hour for questions/answers and further
discussion.
Intro to AJAX .NET
(by Karl Davies-Barrett)
AJAX
stands for Asynchronous JavaScript and XML. It allows the web developer to make calls from client-side to
server-side without a complete Postback. With AJAX .NET the web developer can
easily create interfaces with reusable AJAX components and enhance existing web
pages with the use of powerful AJAX controls, thus providing a richer
experience for the user.
Our invited guest speaker for this community event is Karl
Davies-Barrett, Developer Platform Evangelist for Microsoft Malta & Cyprus.
The level of this session is 100 – 200, that is from introductory to
intermediate. It assumes basic knowledge of ASP .NET. Karl will provide an
introduction to AJAX .NET by going through its main features and then by moving
to a more intermediate level, he will show us how we can create fast and
interactive web applications from within Visual Studio 2008.
An event will take place on Wednesday, February 11th at the
conference room of Microsoft Cyprus, with start at 19:00.
