Property Value

ScriptMode

The enumeration value that indicates the current mode. The default is Auto.

Exceptions

ArgumentOutOfRangeException

The ScriptMode property is not one of the ScriptMode values.

Remarks

The ScriptMode property specifies whether the ScriptManager control should render debug or release versions of client script libraries. This value can be superseded by values that are set in the configuration file and in the page directive.

The following table lists the valid values for this property.

Value Definition
Auto Debug versions of client script libraries are used in the Web page when the retail attribute of the deployment configuration element is set to false. Otherwise, the release versions of client script libraries are used.
Inherit When applied to the ScriptMode property of the ScriptManager object, this value is the same as Auto.
Debug Debug versions of client script libraries are used in the Web page unless the retail attribute of the deployment configuration element is set to true.
Release Release versions of client script libraries are used in the Web page unless the retail attribute of the deployment configuration element is set to false.

Note

The debug attribute of the @ Page directive does not affect Ajax-enabled ASP.NET applications. The ScriptManager control uses only the settings in the Web.config file and in its IsDebuggingEnabled and ScriptMode properties to determine whether to render debug scripts.

For more information, see Debugging and Tracing Ajax Applications Overview.
