RadAjaxPanel _doPostBack (HOW?)

[Xaverian]

I'm currently converting a working appplication and integrating Telerik into it for a school capstone project.

What I need to know is how do we perform a postBack call on the RadAjaxPanel?

For instance, with MS AJAX I can enter the following Javascript into the head of my page:

<script language="javascript" type="text/javascript">
    function connectLogin() {
        var prm = Sys.WebForms.PageRequestManager.getInstance();
        prm._doPostBack('UpdatePanel1', '');
    }
    setTimeout("connectLogin()", 10000);
</script>

that code will cause my UpdatePanel to basically refresh!

<div>
    <asp:UpdatePanel ID="UpdatePanel1" runat="server">
        <ContentTemplate>
           ...
        </ContentTemplate>
    </asp:UpdatePanel>
</div>

Any help with this would be great, I've looked over numerous pieces of code on the site here, tried several things and I'm not getting anywhere!

Thanks!

Hello Xaverian,

You can initiate an ajax request from the client-side via the RadAjaxManager/RadAjaxPanel's ajaxRequest() method. Please refer to the following article for more details:
