Does the ASP.NET MVC AjaxHelper deal with degradation?

Question

Hi,

Does anyone know if the AjaxHelper in the ASP.NET MVC framework deals with degradation?

For example, if you have an ActionLink that updates the content of a div, if JavaScript unavailable, will the page do a full postback by renderubg the page (via an action on a controller) and call the action specified in the ActionLink?

If not, how would you suggest making a page function correctly for browsers with JavaScript enabled and those who have it disabled within the context of an MVC app?

I had a similar question the other day see here

Answer 2

One thing you could try is in your controller, override the OnActionExecuted method and change the filerContext.ActionResult for non-JavaScript enabled browsers. You can also add you own ActionFilters to different actions in the controller.
