Why would one want the EnablePartialRendering attribute to ever be ‘false’ if building AJAX functionality into pages? Seems counter-productive. I’ve read here and there some things one may want to do with the attribute being false. But what I’ve read makes no sense.
Thoughts?
I’ve used that attribute in testing before, to force a full ‘yellow screen’ for server-side errors. Much easier to debug a quick server-side issue that way, than to inspect the error in the Event Log or the XmlHttpRequest’s error response.
Also, one thing that it’s not good for is preventing MicrosoftAjax.js from being injected. I’ve tried that in the past, hoping I could use the ScriptManager’s script combining stand-alone. Unfortunately, no, it still injects MicrosoftAjax.js.
