Atlas, AJAX and InfoPath

I am working on the architecture of a new application based on Sharepoint Forms Libraries and InfoPath. There are several features of Atlas and AJAX that could be benificial in the contruction and interaction of these forms. So the promary question here is, Is there a way to use Atlas and AJAX in an Infopath form?

TIA

Infopath is a rich client, which basicly means that you can do a lot more in infopath than in a web browser. I'm not sure why would you want to use AJAX with infopath, and I highly doubt that you can use it in infopath.

Also to add to that. Atlas can work on ASP.NET v1.1 (Which is what the current Sharepoint version runs on), however it is designed to work better with ASP.NET v2.0. Microsoft Office Sharepoint Server 2007 (MOSS 2007) will run off of ASP.NET v2.0. Also InfoPath won't just be a Client Application/Windows Application any longer... you will the ability to load the Forms created into a browser with most of the same features that would exist in InfoPath. However, MOSS 2007 and InfoPath 2007 won't be release till the end of this year and possible next year in coordination with Vista.

Good luck!

Thank you for your prompt response. The reason for considering this scenario is primarily for the UpdatePanel and the Autofill objects. I was thinking that these could minimize network traffic. Also, thank you for the URL.

Thank you. I am anticipating on having SMS push .NET v2 to all of our client machines. The infopath forms will ba carrying v2 code behind and my thought was include AJAX for the data comunication for lists and lookups.

Just a thought.
