AJAX with Grid

[Dave]

Maybe you guys can help me understand why Ajax does not appear to be working on my page.  I created a page that has a RadGrid with a NestedViewTemplate using the Grid / Hierarchy with Templates demo.  My grid and hierachry (3 sub grids on a tab with multipage) works perfectly the way I want it to.  I decided to try and ajax enable this page (which only contains the grid and its sub grids) and when I expand the main grid's items the page still appears to perform a full post back as the main grid dissappears, the spinny loading panel appears for a short period, then the main grid reappears.  I am not sure if this is happening because the grid is the only item on the page.  Below is my code for the page:

    <telerik:RadAjaxManager ID="RadAjaxManaer1" runat="server"
        DefaultLoadingPanelID="RadAjaxLoadingPanel1">
        <AjaxSettings>
            <telerik:AjaxSetting AjaxControlID="gridActivities">
                <UpdatedControls>
                    <telerik:AjaxUpdatedControl ControlID="gridActivities" LoadingPanelID="RadAjaxLoadingPanel1" />
                </UpdatedControls>
            </telerik:AjaxSetting>
        </AjaxSettings>
    </telerik:RadAjaxManager>
    <telerik:RadAjaxLoadingPanel ID="RadAjaxLoadingPanel1" runat="server" />

Hello Sam,

Based on the provided code I think the AJAX functionality works as expected in your project. I would suggest you to set the Skin="WebBlue" of the RadAjaxLoadingPanel (matching the main grid skin). Now it will get its transparency from the skin and when a regular postback action inside the AJAX-ified grid is taken you should be able to notice more clearly if AJAX callback is performed instead.

I hope this helps.
