I have some scenarios where I have to use AjaxManager.ajaxRequest() for various purposes. As per the documentation, after ajaxRequest(), whatever controls I am expecting to update should be put inside the AjaxManager's ajaxSetting.
<AjaxSettings>
<telerik:AjaxSetting AjaxControlID="RadAjaxManager1">
<UpdatedControls>
....
<telerik:AjaxUpdatedControl ControlID="pnlButtons" />
<telerik:AjaxUpdatedControl ControlID="ucQueryFieldSelector" />
....
</UpdatedControls>
But I want to use ajaxRequest() with different parameter arguments, sometimes updating one set of control and sometimes updating some other set of controls. For above example, I may want to update pnlButtons sometime and then only ucQueryFieldSelector in some other case.
Are there any javascript calls that we can use to update particular Control after ajax response is received?

Hello Piyush,
As all the controls are added to the same ajax setting UpdatedControls collection, all of them would be refreshed on every ajax request invoked with the ajaxRequest() method.
To overcome this behavior by adding different ajax settings with different set of updated controls and for initiator control, add a real ajax initiator but the RadAjaxManager. Then you can invoke ajax requests manually with the ajaxRequestWithTarget() method instead.
Please find more information on how to achieve that here.
Give it a try and let me know how it goes.

That could be one scenario. But what I wanted was some feature, where I don't have to add anything inside AjaxManager. I just want to call makeAjaxRequest() and then after response, I want to call some Javascript methods to update any control I need.
For example, when the AjaxSettings are
<AjaxSettings AjaxControlId="someControl">
<UpdateControls>
<AjaxUpdateControl ControlId="targetControl" />
</UpdateControls>
</..>
Here internally AjaxManager knows that when there is an event from [SomeControl], it got to update [targetControl] and this part it must be doing via some Javascript calls.
How to achieve the same thing via Javascript if I wanted to do it myself. I am ok declaring the AjaxManager on the page. But I want to programmatically decide what controls to update at response time. Do you think this is possible?

Hi Piyush,
Please find attached a sample project illustrating how you can update different controls based on the different ajaxRequest() method arguments.
Note that the different controls are in different settings.
