FIX: Web clients may have several problems when you access an ASP.NET 2.0 AJAX-enabled Web site

SYMPTOMS

When you access a Microsoft ASP.NET 2.0 AJAX-enabled Web site, Web clients such as Windows Internet Explorer may have several problems. For example, the process may exit unexpectedly, or you may receive the following script error message:
Microsoft JScript runtime error: '__pendingCallbacks[...].async' is null or not an object
This problem occurs most frequently when multiple callbacks call the WebForm_CallbackComplete function at the same time. This problem occurs especially when one of the callbacks that is executed displays a modal dialog box, such as an alert dialog box or an error message.

RESOLUTION

Community Feedback System

Very often, it takes hours to solve a problem. Very often, you've looked high and low, and have tried a lot of solutions. When you finally found it, chances are, it was because someone else helped you. Here's your chance to give back. Use our community feedback tool to let others know what worked for you and what didn't.

Please also understand that the community feedback system is not warranted to be correct, it's simply a system that we've built to let people try and help each other. If something in a feedback response doesn't make sense to you, or you're not comfortable making changes that the feedback talks about (like registry edits), please consult a professional.

Thank you for using kbAlertz.com Feedback System.
