How to use the same control

[Andy Ho]

I have created 2 docks which load the same .ascx file.

In the .ascx, there is a button to set the object "tblInput" visible (a table object). But when I click the button on the second dock, the table in the first dock make visible. How to prevent this?

Hello Andy,

I suppose you are making the table visible with some JavaScript function, and this function resides in the user control. If this is the case, when the user control is added to the same page more than once the same JavaScript function will be added to the page more than once, so the previous definition of the function will be overridden by the last definition. To show this please click the "Alert" button on both docks, and one and the same value will be alerted, when in fact they should be different.
You can avoid this from happening by dynamically registering the client script from the server. I have implemented this approach in the attached project.

First of all, thanks for your reply.

I'm not using Javascript to do so, I use server side to make it visible:

tblInput.visible=true

I use RadContextMenu, right click "Edit" and then show the Edit table.

Hi Andy,

I modified the project from my previous reply to show/hide the <div/> on the server side, using the Visible property, and everything seems to be working fine. The modified code is attached to the thread.
I am not sure what might be causing the issue on your side, so please give us more information about the problem. A sample project that demonstrates the issues will help us a lot in finding and providing a working solution.

Pero,

Thanks for your reply. Your solution works ok! I've checked the problem exists because I used a GUID as the Dock's ID.
