Postback with button IN Update panel

Hello,

Q, I have 2 update panel's, one panel has 3 button's in it, say button1, button2, button3. Now i need to find a way to have a whole page postback with button1 (in update panel1) and a partial postback on button2 (also in panel1) . Is this posible.

Thanks in advange

Greetings Henk

hello.

well, you can try to add a dummy button outside the panel and then when the user clicks the button you'd call the click method over the other button...

In Atlas 1.0 we'll have a way to tell the UpdatePanel that certain controls should cause a regular postback even though they're inside the UpdatePanel. For now you'll have to use a workaround (such as the one described previously).

Thanks,

Hmm, I tryed that, but that did not sucseed. I get the error btnDumie does not exist or sumthing like that. the problem is (I think that the submit button is only visible after an panelupdate, so that panel can't acces other elements on the page??)

I hope there is another sollution.

If it's possible in your scenario you could try to divide up your page such that the regular-postback button isn't inside an UpdatePanel. Once Atlas 1.0 is released you'll be able to do this very easily, but it's not quite ready yet.

I am having the same issue. When is Atlas 1.0 due for release?

Thanks,

hello.

well, that post gives some clues, but no spcific date. btw, when are you guys start sharing the current versions you're developing with us? after all, i've been using atlas for months now and i've seen several posts where you guys say something like: "well, in v1.0 that problem is solved" or "you'll be able to do that easilly"...this just isn't enough!

according to the team's comments, it's as if you're changing several internal key parts of atlas. it's not that i'm against it, but you should also keep in mind that there are several people building applications with atlas and it' won't be a lot of fun to find out that v1.0 is out and that everything is completly different (when compared with the ctps!).

thanks.

I think the reason that we're not giving out a date is that there isn't a specific date chosen yet. What we will have is public previews of the new 1.0 Atlas (soon, but I'm not surehow soon). We'll also have a comprehensive document that describes the changes between the older Atlas CTPs and the new Atlas 1.0 CTPs so you can scan through it and identify any changes that you will have to make.

Thanks,

Eilon

PRB: Master Pages and Update Panels/Script Manager - AJAX Magic not working

I have a master page that has the script manager control and a content place holder

I have a content page that is using the above master page and with a gridview control wrapped in an update panel

When the content page doesn't use master pages and the script manager is placed within the content page along with the panel, everything works fine

The problem arises when the master page has the script manager and thhe content page just has the update panel with the gid view. It seems to be doing a regular postback and the ajax plumbing doesn't seemto have any effect..

I also tried adding a page initi handler and specifying the trigger in the code behind but with no luck..

generated page source with script manager in master page is listed below. Why does gettting a common master page scnario be so difficult to getv it working..Please point me in the right direction

<script type="text/javascript">
//<![CDATA[
Sys.WebForms.PageRequestManager._initialize('_ctl0:ScriptManager1', document.getElementById('aspnetForm'));
Sys.WebForms.PageRequestManager.getInstance()._updateControls(['t_ctl0:ContentPlaceHolder1:panel1'], [], [], 90);

//]]>
</script>

Genertated source when the script managersits on the page and the content page does not use any master pages

<script <script type="text/javascript">
//<![CDATA[
Sys.WebForms.PageRequestManager._initialize('ScriptManager1', document.getElementById('aspnetForm'));
Sys.WebForms.PageRequestManager.getInstance()._updateControls(['tpanel1'], [], [], 90);

//]]>
</script>

Hi Ajaxnewbie,

Could you please post your code, so we can see how you have implemented it. Thanks

Regards,

Good question... I have exactly the same problem. I wish there would be a valid answer for this post.

thanks!
