Well, my latest contract is forcing me into the antique world of .Net 1.1. 

Since I have been using jQuery and Rails for quite a while AJAX like solutions to problem keep on popping into my head and I can't help writing them. 

So my fairly straight forward problem is that I have 3 actions I need to perform on a record (insert, update and delete) I can handle index and show using ASP.Net controls and javascript. 

I am using jQuery for all my AJAX stuff. 

The way I thought of doing this is introducing a simple ASPX page that acts as a controller for these three actions, giving it an anemic view and handling all rendering of return data using string concatenations. Is there a better pattern to use here? How did you hack ajax into ASP.Net 1.1? 

I saw this post on [ajaxprojects](http://www.ajaxprojects.com/ajax/tutorialdetails.php?itemid=12) that is using a somewhat similar technique except they are doing 1 page per ajax action.
