Very weird error. Ajax controls call default.aspx

I have a few pages in my site... and for some reason, if there's any ajax controls on the page, it calls default.aspx and runs the code every time any aspx page with an ajax control exists on it. Problem is, default.aspx resets my session variables.

Why does Ajax call the default.aspx page code? It only runs the CS file... it doesn't actually show the default.aspx page.

I doubt it calls it. Do you have a component in your site somewhere that's got a url of "/" attached to it somewhere, and that's invoking the default page?

it only seemed to only happen when I have Certain Ajax controls on the page. Note, it only does it with Internet Explorer 6 and 7. Firefox seems to be fine.

For example, I have a collapsible PAnel in each row of a Gridview. That is in an UpdatePanel. When the Gridview is populated (and I have a breakpoint on the default.aspx.cs file), it goes through that code. Well, I set my session variables on that page, so in essence it resets them.

It seems like it does this AFTER the page is loaded, because the labels that show content based on those session variables aren't updated until I go to a new page.

It only does this when I have a collapsible panel in IE. The panel is set to collapsed.

Actually, it appears that AJAX is clearing the Session Variables. I don't know where it's doing this, though.

VS 2005/MS Ajax Beta Application no longer runs on Live server but does in Dev. Help!

I have just migrated from Atlas to MS Ajax Beta and after a lot of hassle to get the application working I decided to publish to our test web server. When I go to the URL for our test server all I get is a blank page but the IE progress bar (the bar at the bottom that show the page loading status) just flickers like crazy. It works fine on my dev machine but as soon as I publish it, no joy!

I really need some help on this as I don't really have a clue and I don't really fancy having to roll back to Atlas just to get this to work live.

Ignore me, I'm stupid!!

I hadn't checked if the extensions were installed on the server!! DOH!!!

hello.

well, you must install ajax extensions on the live server and configure your site to use asp.net 2.0. have you done that already?

VS cant recognize all tags from AJAX framework.

For some reason starting from Beta VS marks all tags that represent AJAX makeup as invalid even though page compiles and runs OK.

Did anybody see this?
Thanks
