Getting 'Webform_Postbackoptions is undefined’ errors in ASP.NET 2.0

Getting 'Webform_Postbackoptions is undefined’ errors in ASP.NET 2.0
Issue
I recently got an issue where customer ASP.NET 2.0 website on IIS and on one of the aspx pages actually we are using Validatorcontrol on this page. Browsing to that aspx page was giving client side Java script errors ‘Webform_Postbackoptions is undefined’.
In our case there is problem for the linkbutton event that is not working.
http://pocketnerd.blogspot.com/2008/01/webformpostbackoptions-is-undefined.html
Cause
1.WebResources.axd was not getting downloaded to ‘Temporary Internet Files’ folder.
2.Main Cause behind it:The main cause behind this is the porting from asp.net 1.1 to asp.net 2.0.
3.Unavailability of the .axd extention in the IIS where your website is deployed.
Resolution
Step1:Check for the .axd extention in the IIS.
1.Go to IIS.
2.Right click choose property and the Home peoperty
3.Choose configuration
4.Check for the .axd extention. If does not exist the add it.
5.By clicking on the ADD button
6.Add the dll reference from the path of your system
C:\WINDOWS\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v2.0.50727\aspnet_isapi.dll
7.limit to text box should have: GET,HEAD,POST,DEBUG
8.And uncheck the check box of the option "Verify that file exist" and click on the
OK and apply.
If your problem has not been resolved yet the follow the second step
2.Now you have to copy the .axd file content.For this step you have to first DEBUG the Java script of your page and you will get the .axd content
I just renamed my WebResource.axd file or copy its content to YourFormName.js file and place this file as part of my project(root) and included this file in those pages which are giving problem. I included this file by simple tag. script language="" src="...." tag. in head section.

After this at least your link button event will work properly, but you may still get the syntax error.This was not the permanent solution.
If Still you are facing the problem then follow next step

3.If your project is converted from asp.net 1.1 to asp.net 2.0 then, Just simply
remove old page and add new page (with same code and then remove the validator that
is used(any type) and place then again in asp.net 2.0.
and run the project, your project will work properly and link button event will fire
properly.

Speed up Visual Studio 2005

• Make sure Visual Studio 2005 SP1 is installed.
• Turn off animation.Go to Tools Options Environment and uncheck Animate environment tools.
• Disable Navigation Bar.
• If you are using ReSharper, you don't need VS2005 to update the list of methods and fields at the top of the file (CTRL-F12 does this nicely). Go to Tools Options Text Editor C# and uncheck Navigation bar.
• Turn off Track Changes.
• Go to Tools Options Text Editor and uncheck Track changes. This will reduce overhead and speeds up IDE response.
• Turn off Track Active item.
• This will turn off jumping in the explorer whenever you select different files in different projects. Go to Tools Options Projects and Solutions and uncheck Track Active Item in Solution Explorer. This will ensure that if you are moving across files in different projects, left pane will still be steady instead of jumping around.
• Turn off AutoToolboxPopulate.
• There is an option in VS 2005 that will cause VS to automatically populate the toolbox with any controls you compile as part of your solution. This is a useful feature when developing controls since it updates them when you build, but it can cause VS to end up taking a long time in some circumstances. To disable this option, select the Tools Options Windows Forms Designer and then set AutoToolboxPopulate to False.
• Disable "Start Page".
  Go to Tools Options.
  In Environment Startup section, change At startup setting to Show empty environment.
• Disable splash screen.
  Open the properties of Visual Studio 2005 shortcut.
  Add the parameter /nosplash to the target.
• Close all unnecessary panels/tabs to prevent them from appearing when the IDE loads.

Left hand side will show the client machine and right side will show the server machine. Now you can simply select the folder from the client machine and transfer to the server.(For transfer you should have login credential of the server)

• Made changes in web config(or .aspx file) file then in this case you do not have any need to replace any other file simply replace web config file.
