Gaia AJAX Widgets, The Alternative To ASP.NET AJAX


Gaia Ajax Widgets is an Ajax library which is far easier to use, way easier to extend and consumes A LOT less bandwidth than most other Ajax libraries including ASP.NET Ajax. It comes with a free (as in free beer) version and a free (as in freedom, Source Code distro) version though is still a commercial library living of license earnings. The company creating Gaia is called Frost Innovation and is a VERY small company (3 employees) and is located in Norway.

It is the first Ajax library for ASP.NET that doesn't send HTML over its Ajax Request but have created Client-Side implementation of the WebControl class hierarchy in JavaScript and can therefore update specific properties of widget "objects" on the client instead of sending HTML to UpdateAble Controls or "UpdatePanels".
