Over the course of this tutorial, we’ll look at how to create a custom ASP.NET AJAX server control as a wrapper for the Google Maps JavaScript API. The server-side code will be written in C# (which I highly recommend), but it could just as easily be written in VB.NET. The focus will be on creating the control, and we’ll take a good look at the whole process of creating a custom ASP.NET AJAX server control, with client side functionality as well.
