Don't use Cassini if your doing AJAX by pjones@hot.co.nz

Yet another reason to use IIS and not the built in web server in Visual Studio (Cassini). I have some PageMethods I'm calling from the page that tell me the progress of a search. In Cassini these calls queue up while the async search methods are running becuase it does not know how to handle multiple requests concurrently.

Also, Cassini always has Windows Auth turned on. It ignores the NTLM Auth setting in your project.

I do find Cassini fine for simple web pages though and I use it on my notebook for small site development without problems.
