What is the "proper" tag prefix for the AjaxControlToolkit?

Question

I've seen many examples where they just use the "asp" prefix. Is this a good practice?

(The reason I'm asking is because the templates that create the default for a new website appear to be problematic. There's an apparent naming collision on the BulletedList control.)

Answer 1

I think there's no "best practice" for that. I usually use the company name for the control sets. For the MS Ajax and AjaxToolKit I use "ajax" as prefix, because it's short and different that "asp".

For the controls I develop where I work, I use "esi" because that is the abbreviation. That's the only one reason.

Answer 2

I like the prefix act.

I would definitely recommend against using asp as the prefix for anything other than the base ASP.NET WebControls.
