[Solved] ComboBox AutomaticLoadOnDemand - multiple postbacks and detection of them

[Ryan]

Hi,

I am using the radcombobox with automatica load on demand:

<telerik:RadComboBox ID="cboSKU" runat="server"
        DataTextField="STCode" DataValueField="STCode" MarkFirstMatch="true" ShowToggleImage="false"
        EnableAutomaticLoadOnDemand="true" ShowMoreResultsBox="true" ItemsPerRequest="30"
        AutoPostBack="true" onselectedindexchanged="cboSKU_SelectedIndexChanged"
        >

 
this works as expected. This combo box is on an aspx page using a master page. On the master page I'm logging events - however I do not want to capture ajax postbacks. (I do want to capture non ajax postbacks, but not postbacks from, for example, the combo box repopulating values as you type)

i have tried:

if (RadAjaxManager1.IsAjaxRequest == false)
            {
                AddLogEntry();
            }

and

if (ScriptManager.GetCurrent(Page).IsInAsyncPostBack == false)
            {
                AddLogEntry();
            }

with no success.

Any advice would be appreciated.

Thank you, 
Ryan

Hi Ryan,

The following works fine when I test it locally:

protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
    if(IsAjaxPostback(this)){
        //Handle AJAX postback.
    }else {
        //Handle regular postback.
    }
}

public bool IsAjaxPostback(Page page)
{
    var sm = ScriptManager.GetCurrent(page);
    return (sm != null && sm.IsInAsyncPostBack);
}

<telerik:RadComboBox runat="server" ID="RadComboBox1" EnableAutomaticLoadOnDemand="True"
    DataSourceID="SqlDataSource1" DataTextField="Name" DataValueField="ID" ItemsPerRequest="10" AutoPostBack="true"
    ShowMoreResultsBox="true">
</telerik:RadComboBox>

Could you send over a sample page of your attempts, via a support ticket, so we will be able to troubleshoot the issue locally?
