I'm using a tabstrip control with 3 tabs.

- tab 1 is static content - works fine

- tab 2 is a RadGrid (data loads fine, paging is fine, details all fine, however commanditem export doesnt work.
- note i put the same grid in a page by itself (no tabs) and export work just fine.

- tab 3 is a form of user fields with a submit button (in buttonclick event, data is saved to sql db). When debugging form seems to work fine. i can set a break point on ButtonClick and it gets called everytime and data is properly saved. When the page is put on production server buttonClick event doesnt seem to fire. I put the exact same code outside the tabcontrol and it work perfect on production server and debug. buttonclick always fires.

I'm using whatever the newest version of rad controls is, as of this post.

thoughts?

Hi Jason,

In general there should be no difference whether the RadGrid is placed in a pageview with tabstrip or not. I presume that the reason for the problem you are experiencing is due to the fact that the RadTabStrip is ajaxified.

The export functionality of the RadGrid is not supported when ajax is used, as described in this help article.

Regarding your problem with the button click event, please try to open a support ticket and provide a sample page demonstrating the issue so we could examine it locally. The current information provided is insufficient to determine what might be the reason for this behavior.

All the best,

After several hours of testing i finally figured out why my page is acting strange.

The page i'm working on is the root site page and when visiting the page as:

http://mypage.net/index.aspx

everything works fine. (ie i have tabs with grids in tabs and a tab a submit form). Paging, sorting, ajax - everything works (except for export but i can live with that)

however when visiting the exact same page as

http://mypage.net

nothing works (paging, sorting, tabs, submit form doesnt work). This took forever to figure out bc almost everyone access the page as http://mypage.net. it took some time before i realized that everything work correctly when the URL is http://mypage.net/index.aspx

Problem is, I still dont know how to fix this. I guess i could use a blank page with a redirector to index.aspx. This seems lame. I tried a URL mapping in the web.config file but that didnt do anything.

ideas?

thanks
