Updatepanels and user controls

<asp:UpdatePanel ID="uptPnlMain" UpdateMode="Conditional" runat="server">
<ContentTemplate>
<table>
<tr style="padding-top: 7px">
<td>
<table width="100%" border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" class="tab">
<div>
<tr>
<td width="979" align="left" valign="middle" class="pnav" style="padding-left: 15px;
padding-top: 5px; padding-right: 4px;">
<asp:LinkButton ID="lnkCorporate" runat="server" CausesValidation="false"
OnCommand="lnkCorporate_Command" Text="Corp ID |"></asp:LinkButton>
<asp:LinkButton ID="lnkPersonal" runat="server" CausesValidation="false"
OnCommand="lnkPersonal_Command" Text="Personal |"></asp:LinkButton>
						 </td>
</tr>
</div>
</table>
			 <tr id="trCorporateRow" visible="false" runat="server">
<td>
<ucCorporate:CorpId ID="CorpIdTab" runat="server" />
</td>
</tr>
<tr id="trPersonalRow" visible="false" runat="server">
<td>
<ucPersonal:Personal ID="PersonalTab" runat="server" />
</td>
</tr>

protected void lnkCorporate_Command(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
		trPersonalRow.Visible = true;
trCorporateRow.Visible = false;
	}

protected void lnkPersonal_Command(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
		trPersonalRow.Visible = false;
trCorporateRow.Visible = true;
	}

There are two user controls,personal and corporate.
I have noticed one thing.By default I am loading Personal user control.
When I click corporate link,corporate user control is loaded.
but html is not changed.In the source I am having controls of personal tab only.
I tried using placeholder instead of using rows but sane thing happens.
I am assuming this is because of the Updatepanel,as before it was loading controls of the respective user control.
I am expecting some guidance from you experts.Please tell me what needs to be done?

Did you tried to hide or show controls not rows in a table ?

antonybrahin

or u can put it in a div if more than one controls and do the hide and show.

Not tried earlier,
but after your suggestion I tried putting
PersonalTab.Visible = true;
CorpIdTab.Visible = false;

but html is not changing.

I tried uptPnlMain.Update() with no effect.
I need the changed html as I have to write some javasript functions there.
But when I write any,in document.getElementById i never found the control

But do you see it in the UI?

Johny Bravo

ASKER

Yes in UI it is appearing but not when I look for the source

You probably have the same problem as here: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/1570540/getting-dynamically-generated-html-controls-when-using-updatepanel

Okk.
but when I write a javascript function on the controls on second user control,it's not working.
As I am not getting that control,what should I do then?

Carl Tawn

Could you clarify "not working" a little? What isn't working, what is your javascript attempting to do?

existenz2

They have probably different names because of the injection then you are expecting in your JS.

I have checkbox in the second user control which copies current address to permanent address.
When I click the checkbox,I get "Error: Object expected" for javascript.
I put debugger in the function,but it is not reached even.
Without updatepanel,it works fine
Following is the javascript function.

function FillPermanent()
    {
    
        if(document.getElementById('chkCopy').checked)
        {
        var IndexValue = $get('<%=ddlLocalCountry.ClientID %>').selectedIndex;
        var SelectedVal = $get('<%=ddlLocalCountry.ClientID %>').options[IndexValue].value;
            
        var IndexValue1 = $get('<%=ddlLocalState.ClientID %>').selectedIndex;
        var SelectedVal1 = $get('<%=ddlLocalState.ClientID %>').options[IndexValue1].value;
       
        
        var IndexValue2 = $get('<%=ddlLocalCity.ClientID %>').selectedIndex;
        var SelectedVal2 = $get('<%=ddlLocalCity.ClientID %>').options[IndexValue2].value;
      
        
        document.getElementById('<%=txtPermArea.ClientID %>').value = document.getElementById('<%= txtLocalArea.ClientID %>').value;
        document.getElementById('<%=txtPermSubUrb.ClientID %>').value = document.getElementById('<%=txtLocalSubUrb.ClientID %>').value ;
        document.getElementById('<%=txtPermPIN.ClientID %>').value = document.getElementById('<%=txtLocalPIN.ClientID %>').value ;
        
       
        var behavior = $find('<%=CDDPermCountry.ClientID %>');
        behavior.set_SelectedValue(SelectedVal);
        behavior._onParentChange(null, true);
        
         var behavior1 = $find('<%=CCDPermState.ClientID %>');
        behavior1.set_SelectedValue(SelectedVal1);
        behavior1._onParentChange(null, true);
        
         var behavior2 = $find('<%=CDDPermCity.ClientID %>');
        behavior2.set_SelectedValue(SelectedVal2);
        behavior2._onParentChange(null, true);
}

Open in new window

If 'chkCopy' as an ASP.NET Checkbox it will have a different id, so it will return null. You will also need the ClientID from the checkbox in that case.

<input type="checkbox" id="chkCopy" name="chkCopy" onclick="FillPermanent()" />
It's an html control

Carl Tawn

Try changing the start of your javascript to:

function FillPermanent( source )
{

if(source.checked)
{

And your checkbox to:

<input type="checkbox" id="chkCopy" name="chkCopy" onclick="FillPermanent(this);" />

:( this is also not working.
Currently I have removed updatepanel and it is working fine.I am waiting from some solution.thanks

CtrlAltDl

Try changing the LinkButton event to OnClick. If that doesn't work try adding also adding Triggers to the UpdatePanel.

<Triggers>
<asp:AsyncPostBackTrigger ControlID="lnkCorporate" EventName="Click" />
<asp:AsyncPostBackTrigger ControlID="lnkPersonal" EventName="Click" />
</Triggers>
</asp:UpdatePanel>
</asp:Panel>
