Is AJAX supported in ASP.NET 1.1 ? [SOLVED]

Is AJAX supported in ASP.NET 1.1 ?

I just started today researching about AJAX and I've see that there's 3rd party custom wrappers for AJAX support. It's not included in the framework 1.1? Is AJAX technology that new?

Another question, If I have an ASP.NET site developed in VS 2003, does it work if I open it with VS 2005? (I don't have one arround yet to try it myself).

Thanks

Its not built into the framework, but there's no reason that you can't use AJAX in ASP.NET 1.1

2. Yes, the solution gets converted to VS 2005 format.

Thanks guys, I'll have to play arround with both questions.

I myself have been researching this implementation model. There are two fantastic links that give a ton of info plus free tools to implement AJAX in 1.1. The second link is referred to in the first Microsoft link as the main building block with an AJAX.dll file. But you can jump directly to it if you want.
