Is there any documentation for Microsoft asp.net and mvc front-end scripts

Question

I use the Mvc2 and its native validation system. Some js files are included by default, for example: MicrosoftAjax.js MicrosoftMvcAjax.js MicrosoftMvcValidtion.js

I need to make some more complex validation procedures, which means I need to understand these scripts. Is there any documentation about these scripts? I searched thoroughly but find nothing... Microsoft doesn't document?

Answer 1

Sadly Microsoft's documentation is often lacking.

However, I would recommend several things:

Firstly, check out MVC Foolproof validation - it may provide you with all the extra validation that you require.

Secondly, if you can upgrade to MVC3 - validation has much better support.

Thirdly, I'd recommend using the jquery support instead of the MicrosoftAjax - you'll find it's much better supported moving forward.
