Runtime Executed Ajax Manager Does Not Postback or Update RadGrid

[Andrew]

I have a RadGrid on a page that contains a custom ImageButton control in the first column of each row. When I press the button I call the following javascript function:

    function AddDetailRowButtonClicked(id)
    {
        var ajaxManager = $find("<%= RadAjaxDetailManager.ClientID %>");
        ajaxManager.ajaxRequest(id);
    }

What I want to do when this button is pressed is a) save any data that may have already been entered into the grid and b) add a row based on the saved data to the RadGrid's DataSource and rebind it.

So if the table has two rows and they click the button I want to add a third row on the server and have that be added to the grid after the partial page postback.

I'm having two problems. The first is that the data entered client-side is not accessible from the server-side instance of the grid so I cannot save that data. The data does appear if I put a simple button on the page that forces the whole page to postback. Why does it not work here?

The second problem is that when I rebind the grid server-side with a new row those changes are not reflected on the client. Is there something special I have to do to update the grid when using the Ajax Manager?

Thank you.

Hi Andrew,

You maybe missed the setting in the RadAjaxManager where the manager updates the grid:

<telerik:RadAjaxManager ID="RadAjaxManager1" runat="server">
    <AjaxSettings>
        <telerik:AjaxSetting AjaxControlID="RadAjaxManager1">
            <UpdatedControls>
                <telerik:AjaxUpdatedControl ControlID="RadGrid1" />
            </UpdatedControls>
        </telerik:AjaxSetting>
    </AjaxSettings>
</telerik:RadAjaxManager>

Was that the issue?

Thanks,
