AJAX has been in shadows for a decade now but it started buzzing right after the launch of the Google Earth. This article shows how to create an AJAX Repeater control with item, header, footer, alternative item, and seperator item templates using AJAX and ASP.NET.
XMLHttp and AJAX can really make your application do tricks which were not possible with plain vanilla HTML, but your code can become messy very quickly if you do not plan your approach properly. I still remember the days when I was writing spaghetti code with classic asp to render tables. Things changed with the entry of data controls like repeater and datalist in asp.net making code cleaner and easy to write.
AJAX is going through phase similar to classic asp of 1999-2000, lot of guys are working with there own version of patterns and frameworks to make development with AJAX easy. JavaScript library that looks ahead of all is prototype's library for Ajax (http://prototype.conio.net/) but there is still no such utility that will help you to display tabular data with ease that you get when you use control like repeater control of asp.net so I decided to make one and share with community.
