Hi

I want to display the latest message from database server.So is it possible to refresh the rotator every 5 minutes, without reload the page.
Please provide the code for refresh the control.

Hi Nagabooshanam,

One suggestion is that you can use a timer inside the UpdatePanel to refresh the RadRotator. Following is the sample code that I tried to achieve your scenario.

ASPX:

<asp:UpdatePanel ID="up" runat="server">
  <ContentTemplate>
    <asp:Timer ID="Timer1" runat="server" Interval="300000" OnTick="Timer1_Tick">
    </asp:Timer>
    <telerik:RadRotator ID="RadRotator1" runat="server" Width="470px" Height="364" ItemWidth="470px" ItemHeight="230" RotatorType="Buttons" DataSourceID="SqlDataSource1">
       <ItemTemplate>
         <telerik:RadBinaryImage runat="server" ID="RadBinaryImage1" DataValue='<%#Eval("Picture") %>' AutoAdjustImageControlSize="false" Width="90px" Height="110px" />
       </ItemTemplate>
    </telerik:RadRotator>
  </ContentTemplate>
</asp:UpdatePanel>

C#:

protected void Timer1_Tick(object sender, EventArgs e)
  {
    RadRotator1.DataBind();
  }

Hope this helps.

Regards,
Princy.

Hi,

I am using RadRotaor with load on demand webservice and would like to refresh data on reaching the end of message rather than looping through the data, how can I achieve this?

I tried to modify the function in webservice to  get latest data if item index  reached the end of record set, but once the item index reached an end it never sent any request to webservice.

Hello Prava,

I have prepared a sample page that shows a possible approach for implementing the functionality you want to achieve. You can find it in the the other forum thread that you used for describing your case. Please examine it and let me know if it meets your requirements.

I would suggest using a single forum thread when reporting problems in the future. This way the information on the discussed scenario will be easier to track.

All the best,
