I have downloaded the AjaxControlToolkit 3.5 dll and added it to my module, which is also residing in DotnetNuke's bin directory.  I register the assembly in the page like so:

<%@ Register assembly="AjaxControlToolkit" namespace="AjaxControlToolkit" tagprefix="act" %>

<asp:TextBox ID="MessageTextBox" runat="server" Width="200" autocomplete="off" />&nbsp;

 

<act:FilteredTextBoxExtender ID="ftbe" runat="server"

TargetControlID="MessageTextBox"

FilterType="Custom, Numbers"

ValidChars="+-=/*()." />

Without the ajax control references in the module, it loads up just fine.  With it, I keep seeing this script error: "AjaxControlToolkit requires ASP.NET Ajax 4.0 scripts. Ensure the correct version of the scripts are referenced. If you are using an ASP.NET ScriptManager, switch to the ToolkitScriptManager in AjaxControlTollkit.dll"

I have even tried to add a ScriptManager and a ToolkitScriptManager and get "Object reference not set to an instance of an object"

What is getting to me is the DNN book they released on modules does not include an example of getting this to work, they just say it does.  I have found on multiple forums people cannot get it to work, or people make suggestions without even trying it out and seeing the error for themselves.

Is DNN flexible enough to use the AjaxControlToolkit?!?  If so, what am I doing wrong?

I have the exact same problem and can't seem to get it working. I've been using an older version of AJAX just fine, but when I try to use the newest version, 40412 on DNN 5.2.3. I get the same errors described above. I really wish someone from DNN would respond to one of these posts. There are at least 3-4 similar post with no answer.

Thanks. All help is appreciated.

Hey Joseph, are you been able to resolve this issue? i am having similar issue while trying to implementing the extender control in dotnetnuke 05.02.x.
