How much overhead does AJAX add to a web application?
I want to use the AJAX ModalPopup Extender control on a few of my ASP pages to make some data entry tasks more user friendly. How much, if any, overhead does enabling AJAX in a web application create? Is there any reason I should avoid using AJAX in my application? Someone on my web team seems completely against AJAX and I'm trying to understand why.
In addition to that, use updatepanel only when you want to update parts asynchronously without having to send the entire page.
The only drawback is that it can cause lot of overhead on the client side
I haven't really used AJAX a whole lot so it's still new to me but I keep hearing bad things about it. So the only AJAX control to keep an eye on would be the UpdatePanel? Under what scenarios would AJAX cause problems in your web app?
