file explorer causes exception in jquery when used inside a tab of ajax tabcontainer

[Ronen]

{if(T==null){throw"Syntax error, unrecognized expression: "+ad}else{break}}

  this function calls the jquery:
 _find: function _find(selector, context, single, filter) {
            var found = [],

            if (typeof(selector) === "string") {

                selectors = selector;
            }
            var includeSelf = context instanceof Array,
                simpleNonTag = /^([\$#\.])((\w|[$:\.\-])+)$/,
                tag = /^((\w+)|\*)$/;
            if ((typeof(context) === "string") || (context instanceof Array)) {
                context = Sys._find(context);
            }
            if (context instanceof Sys.ElementSet) {
                context = context.get();
            }
            foreach(selectors, function(selector) {
                if (typeof(selector) !== "string") {

                    else {

I found out you can't use ajax controls along with telerik controls.

[Fiko]

Hi Ronen,

The scenarios where the RadFileExplorer control is updated using AJAX are not supported. The RadFileExplorer uses a UpdatePanel internally and when two or more nested AJAX requests are initiated, then the result becomes unpredictable. This is why, I recommend you to exclude the RadFileExplorer from the partially updated region. The most efficient way to do this is to use a RadAjaxManager control and explicitly specify the controls to be updated.

I hope this helps.

Best wishes,
Fiko
