[Solved] ajax refreshing a simple listview

[James]

Hi everyone,
hope everyone is well...
I have a problem refreshing my listview.
I have the following function which i call from my telerik popup.
The popup closes and I can confirm this function gets called by the alert("");

The problem I am having is that the $find() line returns null.

 <script type="text/javascript">
        function test() {
            alert("");
            $find("testlistview").ajaxRequest("Rebind");   // returns null
        }
    </script>


<div id="testlistview">
    <asp:ListView ID="ListView1" runat="server">
          ...
    </asp:ListView>
</div>


Can anyone please help me?

Many thanks,

[James]

am I missing something
(Can provide further code if needed)

[James]

the error message is: $find("testlistview") is null

James ,

As you may know $find  method is actually a shorthand of MS AJAX's Sys.Application.findComponent method, which as stated in documentation, retrieves a Component object. However from the code you have pasted it is clear that you are trying to access a div html element instead, which is causing for the error you are getting.

Also please note that ajaxRequest is method of RadAjax control, therefore you should call it on RadAjaxManager or RadAjaxPanel instances.  Please review this online help article.
