Ajax communication between a user control and a RadGrid

[Alexandru-Anton]

Hello,

I have a Radgrid bound to a data source:
<radG:RadGrid ID="grdOthers" runat="server" DataSourceID="odsOthers"...>
..and a user control which contains a complex popup for adding a new record to the data source
<ucAutreActivite:AutreActivite ID="PopupAutreActivite"...>
In the user control the button which does the job:
<asp:ImageButton ID="btnValiderPopupAjouterActivite"...>

I also manually set in the user control the Ajax context between the button and the parent grid (which is a property of the user control), and it seems that it appears well in the View Source code:
window["RadAjaxManagerPlanningGrid"] = new RadAjaxManager(...{InitControlID : "PopupAutreActivite_btnValiderPopupAjouterActivite",UpdatedControls : [{ControlID:"PopupAutreActivite_AjouterActivitePopup",PanelID:""},{ControlID:"grdOthers",PanelID:""}]}...)

The problem is although that, after pressing the button which inserts a new value (and this works OK), the grid is not refreshed.
Am I missing something?

Thank you

Hi Alexandru-Anton,

Note that in scenarios where UserControl is used as edit form for RadGrid control the whole RadGrid should be ajaxified instead of explicitly ajaxify controls form the UserControl. See the demo below which demonstrates similar approach:
http://demos.telerik.com/aspnet-ajax-beta/grid/examples/data-editing/edit-form-types/defaultcs.aspx

I hope this helps.

Yes, I set Ajax between RadGrid and RadGrid and between the button and RadGrid.
Only that I use another control for the popup, in the grid that I use (from Telerik.WebControls) and a version from 2009, there is no EditMode = Popup for the grid/ MasterTableView

Thanks.

Hello Alexandru-Anton,

The version you are using is rather old and most of the current features and improvements int he controls is not implemented in it. therefore I would suggest you to update to the latest version of the controls and test the required features which should work properly.
