[Solved] Ajax update on parent form

[Matthew Roca]

I have a page that dynamically loads one of three web user controls based UI actions.  For one of the user controls, some actions are performed within the code of the parent page.  This is accomplished by declaring a public event in the user control and subscribing to it in the main page.  When the user clicks on specific parts of the user control, the public event is raised, the parent page catches the raised event and performs some actions, including the updating of some control values on the main page.  However, the updates are not refreshed to the UI?  How, from within the code on main page, can the main page ajax controls be forced to update?  If a button is created on the main page with the click event executing the same code, all works as expected.  But, if the code executed in response to the user control event calls the click method of the button, the related parent page controls are not updated.

Hi Matthew,

Based on the provided information, it seems to that some ajax settings are missing. For instance, I assume that you have a setting where the user controls parent container updates itself, am I right? And if you want the user controls to update any other page content, you need to add an ajax setting where the parent container updates this content as well.

Find more about RadAjaxManager in the below articles:

Additionally, you can try sending a stripped version of your project, or at least the problematic page so I could check it further.

Let me know how it goes.

Best wishes,
