Using the WebClient.DownloadFileAsync() requires you to write Async="true" in your directive and it's slightly unpleasant. On the other hand, for an unknown reason -to me- the AJAX Timer won't simply work! The request goes to the server, Download will start asynchronously and the events for ProgressChange and DownloadComplete will fire really nice on the server, but the page never gets back to the client before the file is downloaded and therefore thre will be no Timer_Tick()s! Do you suggest anything? Hello
