Triggering an Updatepanel (b) based on a gridview rowcommand which is inside a UpdatePanel

Hi there,

I have two sections on my aspx page which contain two grids on an aspx page. User and UserDetails.

User section has atab control which contains an update panelupUsers which contains the gridviewgvUsers. I have another grid in a different updatepanelupUserDetails this contains a grid toogvUserAccessKeys. I want to refresh the second updatepanelupUserDetails (basically trigger it) based on the RowCommand in the gvUsers which is in the first update panel. I was able to do this till I added the tab control.

Now it cannot find the gvUsers controlID when I write the trigger.

So is it possible to trigger a different UpdatePanel based on a gridview Control rowcommand event from inside a AjaxControlKit tab control.

Thanks in advance for any suggestions.

Hi,

I have a similar problem, except that I am loading UserControls with GridView dynamically into the TabPanels. The GridView have buttons that should fire RowCommand. The TabContainer is within an UpdatePanel. My RowCommand event is not firing, did you find any solutions to your problem?

Thanks.

Hook the gvUsers RowCreate Event, Find the Button using the FindControl. Once Found, create asyncpostbacktrigger programatically set the control id to the found button id and add the trigger in the second update panel trigger collection.
