AJax not firing

[John]

I've got my RadAjaxManager and  RadAjaxLoadingPanel on my master page. My RadMenu is being registered. I have two panels on the page, one is initially hidden. when the RadMenu item is selected, the two panels swap visibility. Ajax is not firing and I get a full post back each time a menu item is clicked.

It looks like it should be working, at least to me. Here's my code...

Thanks!

Hi John,

Note that you could not add control which is initially invisible on the page, to the RadAjaxManager settings. The initiator or the updated control should be always placed in a visible container so that the manager can locate it when necessary. See the help topic below for more information on this matter:
http://www.telerik.com/help/aspnet-ajax/ajax-tips-and-tricks.html

Also please add a setting in which the RadMenu updates itself in order to ajaxify it properly.

I hope this helps.

Kind regards,
