Anyone know of a link to a good article/tutorial for getting started using jQuery for AJAX calls rather than ASP.NET AJAX? I'm trying to avoid using UpdatePanels entirely in this app, which I haven't been able to accomplish in the past.

Is there a specific reason you do not want to use Update Panels? I am in the same boat and am just wondering your reasoning. Trying to determine ASP.Net AJAX vs jQuery (which I love) or a combination of both... – Andy Brudtkuhl Oct 14 '08 at 21:04

I was just going through Risk's backlogs and found an awesome article using JavaScript serialization to pass the data. I'm coding it right now. Thanks! – Mark Struzinski Oct 15 '08 at 0:21

Damien Edwards just gave an awesome talk on this topic at the recent MIX11 conference. You can watch the video online and download his code. He developed a jquery-UI extenders project that works the same way that ASP.NET AJAX toolkit works, but just extends normal controls/tags/elements with jQuery functionality. The project is on CodePlex.

The most complete article I've ever found about this topic

http://www.codeproject.com/KB/ajax/AjaxAndAspNET.aspx

It avoids update panel, script manager and viewstate.
