Since all ASP.Net AJAX components require a ScriptManager you need to either add one to the MasterPage or do it dynamically. I chose to do it dynamically so only the pages that had ASP.Net Ajax components would have it (making the pages a little less bloated). To get a ScriptManager to dynamically add for your web part, add a ScriptManager declaration to your class: ScriptManager _scriptManager; then add this code to your CreateChildControls method: if(_scriptManger == null) { //first check to see if there is a ScriptManager loaded on the page already _scriptManager = ScriptManager.GetCurrent(this.Page); if(_scriptManager == null) { //since there wasn't one on the page, we create a new one and add it to the controls collection _scriptManager = new ScriptManager(); this.Controls.Add(_scriptManager); ...
