Module Development Overview
DotNetNuke is a framework. You implement this framework by extending it's classes and implementing it's interfaces. One way to do this is by creating modules.
For most DotNetNuke is a solution because they use modules that already extend the classes and implement the interfaces. However, in those instances where you are unable to find an existing module that provides the functionality you desire, you can easily create your own modules.
Essentially, a DotNetNuke module is a collection of user controls that are configured to work together. These user controls inherit from either PortalModuleBase or PortalSettingsBase.

Demo Sample ASP.NET AJAX Application
Using Web Services with DotNetNuke®
The DotNetNuke Framework injects the Script manager for you and only one script manager can be placed on a page at one time. Use code such as this to add services:
Demo Sample Web Services Application
IWeb Framework Use IWeb (http://IWEB.ADefWebserver.com)
Common web service methods Authentication and encryption Portal and User Information
Secure web services The DotNetNuke password is never displayed on any page
or transmitted over the network. The encrypted password changes each time the page is
accessed so a page will contain a password that has either been changed, expired, or due to expire soon (the last username / encrypted password combination expires after 1 hour. This can be set to a lower number for greater security).
