2You could also use Fiddler to watch the requests. You will learn a lot by doing this.CrazyDart– CrazyDart2010-10-05 16:14:21 +00:00Commented Oct 5, 2010 at 16:14

There's also the Request.IsAjaxRequest if you're using a later version of MVC. I don't have version 1 anymore so I can't say if it's in version 1.
If you need this check in Global.asax.cs try this:
new HttpRequestWrapper(Request).IsAjaxRequest()

@BuildStarted I need this check in Global.asax.cs so this won't help me

@BuildStarted is not available in Application_Error

Yeah, you're right. It's because it's outside of MVC and doesn't utilize
HttpRequestBase. I haven't had a need for that so I didn't look too deeply. Thanks for the heads up.

BTW: If you are inside custom authorization filter use this to get IsAjaxRequest method on Request: filterContext.HttpContext.Request.IsAjaxRequest

All AJAX calls made by jQuery will have a header added to indicate it is AJAX. The header to check is X-Requested-With, and the value will be XMLHttpRequest when it is an AJAX call.
Note that AJAX requests are normal GETs or POSTs, so unless you (or your AJAX library like jQuery) are adding an additional header in the request, there is no way to know for certain whether it is AJAX or not.

@Omu:
Request.Headers["X-Requested-With"] or similar. Check MSDN. Headers are always related to requests.It works for me in ASP.NET MVC 3
if (Request.IsAjaxRequest())
{
// ajax request handled
}

In Global.asax:
new HttpRequestWrapper(Request).IsAjaxRequest()
