onkeyup event handler for radtextbox

[newbie]

I have a page with a search textbox and a grid.
As the user types into the textbox i want to display the results in the grid based on the value in the textbox.

I have hooked up the onkeyup event for the textbox to do a postback.

My code is:

aspx:

<

script>

function

movetoend()

 

{

 

var range = document.selection.createRange();

 

range.moveStart(

"textedit");

 

range.select();

}

 

 

</script>

 

 

<telerik:RadTextBox ID="RadTextBoxName" runat="server" TabIndex="1" onfocus="movetoend()"

 

 

OnTextChanged="RadTextBoxName_OnTextChanged">

 

 

</telerik:RadTextBox>

aspx.cs code:

 

protected

void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)

 

{

 

if (!Page.IsPostBack)

 

 

{

 

RadTextBoxName.Attributes.Add(

"onkeyup", "setTimeout('__doPostBack(\\'" + RadTextBoxName.ClientID.Replace("_", "$") + "\\',\\'\\')', 0);");
}

 

 

}

 

 

 

protected

void RadTextBoxName_OnTextChanged(object sender, EventArgs args)

 

{

soNameSearch(RadTextBoxName.Text);

RadTextBoxName.Focus();

}

 

The problem is with the postback there is a page flash each time the grid reloads.
How can i avoid the page flash?

Can you guide me towards the right approach to achieve the desired functionality?

Hello,

One possible option in this case would be to use the Ajax manager to both ajaxify the grid control, and make an ajax callback to the server as needed, from the client side api of the control.
