Update panels in SP sandboxed solution

[Bhanu]

Hi Team,

We are currently migrating an application developed as sharepoint farm solution to sandboxed solution. I have used update panels to avoid the postbacks in my farm solution. Knowing that ajax/telerik controls are not supported in sandboxed solution, do i have any alternative to replace the update panels functionality in sandboxed environment. I want to avoid un necessary post backs.

Thanks,
Bhanu.

Hi,

 I don't think there can be an easy alternative to this issue. The sandbox solutions themselves limit the use of ScriptManager and script controls as a whole. So asynchronous calls in the sense of the MS Ajax framework indeed cannot be realized in sandbox solutions. Alternatives can be client-side operations or web service calls.

All the best,
