I'm using SharePoint 2010 Foundation with Visual Studio 2010 Ultimate. I developed a Web Part with extensive use of JavaScript and Ajax call.
I deploy application by Visual Studio correctly, enable feature without problem but when I try save a page that include my Web Part I receive this error:
Invalid postback or callback argument. Event validation is enabled using in configuration or <%@ Page EnableEventValidation="true" %> in a page. For security purposes, this feature verifies that arguments to postback or callback events originate from the server control that originally rendered them. If the data is valid and expected, use the ClientScriptManager.RegisterForEventValidation method in order to register the postback or callback data for validation.
Description: An unhandled exception occurred during the execution of the current web request. Please review the stack trace for more information about the error and where it originated in the code.

If I disable EventValidation I haven't this problem, but in production environment I would avoid disable this feature. Recently I change static html JavaScript reference with SharePoint:ScriptLink element. Can this cause the problem? I use this syntax:
<SharePoint:ScriptLink ID="ScriptLinkJquery" Name="~SiteCollection/MyLibrary/Scripts/Example.js" runat="server"></SharePoint:ScriptLink>
Can you help me?
Thanks
