How to add the AJAX Control Toolkit to your project

AJAX Control Toolkit is an extension made for ASP.Net that you can install for using many different AJAX controls in your website. They don’t come with the basic Visual Studio installation so you have to install them if you want to use them (the AJAX core with update panels and timers comes with Visual Studio).

Copied from ajax.net, just to save a copy!

  1. Download AJAX Control Toolkit from here.
  2. Extract the files and place the folder with them in a safe place.
  3. Launch Visual Studio and create a new ASP.NET Web Forms project or website. Open Default.aspx in the Visual Studio editor.
