UserControl with AJAX in RadMenuItem

[Fit2Page]

I have a RadMenu in Mega Drop Down mode.
A childitem is added, and a UserControl is added to the child.

Code for adding the UserControl dynamically:

e.Item.GroupSettings.ExpandDirection = ExpandDirection.Down
e.Item.GroupSettings.OffsetX = "-476"

childItem = New RadMenuItem()
childItem.CssClass="MenuSlide"
e.item.Items.Add(childItem)

Dim uc_Products As products = DirectCast(LoadControl("~/includes/products/products.ascx"), products)
childItem.Controls.Add(uc_Products)

In the userControl there is a Repeater which must be Ajaxified so that it can be updated while the menu item is expanded.
I try it like so:

<telerik:RadAjaxLoadingPanel ID="RadAjaxLoadingPanel1" runat="server" Skin="Default" />

<telerik:RadAjaxPanel ID="RadAjaxPanel1" runat="server" Width="600px" EnableAJAX="true"
LoadingPanelID="RadAjaxLoadingPanel1" EnablePageHeadUpdate="True"
HorizontalAlign="NotSet">

<asp:Button Text="productlines" id="btn_productlines" runat=server />

<asp:Repeater id="rpt_Footer" runat="server" OnItemCommand="UpdateProductGroups">
<HeaderTemplate><ul class="ProductFooter"></HeaderTemplate>
<ItemTemplate>
<li style="float:left;">

<asp:Literal runat=server id="ltl_rewrite" Text='<%# Container.DataItem("rewrite") %>' />

<asp:ImageButton
ImageUrl='<%#FormatThumbnail(Container.DataItem("foto"))%>'
Tooltip='<%#Container.DataItem("description")%>'
id="btn_Type" runat="server" />
</li>
</ItemTemplate>
<FooterTemplate></ul></FooterTemplate>
</asp:Repeater>
<asp:Label runat=server id="aa" Text="aaa" />
</telerik:RadAjaxPanel>

And in the CodeBehind:

Sub UpdateProductGroups(ByVal Sender As Object, ByVal e As RepeaterCommandEventArgs)
aa.Text = "bbb"
End Sub

When I click in the Repeater a full Postback is occuring instead of an Ajax update.

Any suggestions?

Thanks,
Marc

Hello Fit2Page,

I tested the scenario that you describe but I am not able to reproduce the issue that you encounter. Please take a look at the attached page and let me know if I am missing something. For the simple test i bind the menu item to a simple array. I also set AnimationDuration property, so that the ajax update animation can be visible.
