Whenever I add a domain tag to the web.config Forms section it makes my menus disappear from my application.

<authentication mode="Forms">
  <forms name="appname" loginUrl="login.aspx" domain="localhost" />
</authentication>

Has anyone experienced this before?

This prevents all requests under this application from passing unless you authenticate. For aspx pages this is fine and dandy, but for the webresource requests AJAX controls needs this is a problem, because IIS does not return the scripts/stylesheets, but the error page.

So, add a location element to provide access to the needed handlers:

<configuration>
...
<location path="Telerik.Web.UI.WebResource.axd">
   <system.web>
     <authorization>
       <allow users="*"/>
     </authorization>
   </system.web>
 </location>
...
</configuration>

Or, turn on the CDN so webresources are used as rarely as possible: http://www.telerik.bg/help/aspnet-ajax/scriptmanager-cdn-support.html and http://www.telerik.bg/help/aspnet-ajax/stylesheetmanager-cdn-support.html. The MS AJAX scripts, however, will still be taken from webresource, I think. Take a look at the requests in the browers and let the needed ones pass.
