NestedViewTemplate - I have a user control in there... postbacks don't work

[Joshua]

Hey Telerik community!

First off, I've done a lot of research on this topic. Seems I'm not the only one having trouble getting things to work inside a NestedViewTemplate. But all the posts I read dealt with having another RadGrid inside a NestedViewTemplate. My situation is a little different...

Problem

I have my own custom user control. It's very simple. If I put it INSIDE the NestedViewTemplate the postbacks don't work. If I put it OUTSIDE it works as expected.

Attached are some screen shots.

Here is the code for the simple user control:

ascx:

<telerik:RadTextBox OnTextChanged="First_Name_TextChanged" ID="tb_first_name" Width="120px" runat="server" AutoPostBack="True" />

code behind:

protected void First_Name_TextChanged(object sender, System.EventArgs e)
{
    if (!string.IsNullOrEmpty(tb_first_name.Text))
    {
        Profile.SetPropertyValue("profile_first", tb_first_name.Text);
        Profile.Save();
        ico_first_name.Text = CHECK_ICON;
    }
}

So my question is this:

How do I get that postback to actually do something, when it's inside the NestedViewTemplate?

Need a little help here guys :-)

I've been fiddling around with different solutions but nothing has seemed to work.

How do you get postbacks to work in a user control inside a nestedviewtemplate?

Hello Joshua,

I assume that you should recreate the dynamically loaded user control in order to overcome that issue. For that purpose, you can handle the ItemCreated event, and if an item is expanded, load the user controls in the nested item. Check it out and let me know how it goes and is I missed something out.
