ASP.NET 2.0 AJAX 1.0 Extensions allows you to develop custom client controls that function purely on the client-side. Those controls are developed mainly by Javascript and some server-side coding. Once the custom client control is rendered on the client-side, all the functionalities involved in it will be executed on the client-side only. Any required resource from the server will be retreived asynchornously.
To learn more about developing custom client controls in the AJAX 1.0 Extensions, here is a set of useful links for articles and webcasts:

The ASP.NET Wiki was started by Scott Hanselman in February of 2008. The idea is that folks spend a lot of time trolling the blogs, googlinglive-searching for answers to common "How To" questions. There's piles of fantastic community-created and MSFT-created content out there, but if it's not found by a search engine and the right combination of keywords, it's often lost.
The ASP.NET Wiki articles moved to CodeProject in October 2013 and will live on, loved, protected and updated by the community.
