Very slow and unresponsive AJAX (Calendar + Tabs)

i just installed the toolkit into Visual Studio 2005, and managed to create some sample projects

I've implemented the Tabs and Calendar onto an existing project, in the believe that Ajax would provide faster (or as fast) access then the existing solution.

in order to make the Ajax work in the project, I've copied nearly all needed elements into the web.config ( http://codebetter.com/blogs/jay.kimble/archive/2006/10/26/How-To_3A00_-Enable-Microsoft-Ajax-Beta-over-on-an-existing-site.aspx )

now - the Ajax Calendar and Tabs works, the old server side asp.net have been fitted to the new controls...

but very very slow !?!? - the calendar takes 3-4 seconds to show and a single action in it takes 1-2 seconds ?

Hi Montago,

Your program works pretty well after I removed all the UserControls. So we suggest that you should use an exclusive method that remove the controls one by one until find out the exact root cause. Also, Some helpful debugging tools will make your work easy. For example,IE WebDevelopment Helper,HttpWatch,Firebug etc.

If your problem cannot be resolved , please let me know with more information.

Best regards,

Joanthan
