RadMultiPage without Tabs

[Hans van Rijnswoud]

Hi,

Is it possible to implement a RadMultiPage (load on demand) without tabs.
I have already tabs on my page to manage aspx page.
I would like to manage the RadMultipage with ASP button.
It's working but it is very slow (to slow) and i have problem with the postback.

Here is my code inside the aspx page:

protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
   if(!Page.IsPostBack)
   {
       AddPageView("VacancyAddStep0");
       btn_NextStep.Visible = true;
       btn_PreviousStep.Visible = false;
   }
}

private void AddPageView(string pageViewId)
{
   var pageView = new RadPageView { ID = pageViewId };
   RadMultiPage1.PageViews.Add(pageView);
}

protected void RadMultiPage1_PageViewCreated(object sender, RadMultiPageEventArgs e)
{
            string userControlName = "~/Views/" + e.PageView.ID + ".ascx";
            Control userControl = Page.LoadControl(userControlName);
            userControl.ID = e.PageView.ID + "_userControl";
            e.PageView.Controls.Add(userControl);
}

protected void LoadOfActiveRadPage(string pageName)
{
            var multiPage = RadMultiPage1;
            RadPageView _pageStep = multiPage.FindPageViewByID(pageName);
            if (_pageStep == null)
            {
                _pageStep = new RadPageView();
                _pageStep.ID = pageName;
                multiPage.PageViews.Add(_pageStep);
            }
            _pageStep.Selected = true;
}

If it's possible? Do you have maybe a samples?
Of do I need to implement this with other control ( like update panel) ?

Any help and suggestion would be appreciate.

Thanks,

Edwin.

Hello Edwin Blom,

RadMultiPage is in most cases used with RadTabStrip. Using it on its own has the only benefit of changing views on the client-side which seems not to be the case with your scenario. I recommend you use an UpdatePanel and load your controls on demand (using the button) in it.

HI Albert,

Thanks for this.
It was to much work to change everything with updatePanel.
I found a "solution", I manage the postback of the ascx control with a bool in the ViewState and it's work perfect.

Edwin.
