Wizard inside of update panel, still getting postbacks

Hi,

I placed a wizard inside of an update panel and when I click on the button for the next step, I still get a postback. I have tried setting the mode to conditional and it still occurs.

I even tried making a new atlas website and putting nothing but the update panel with the wizard inside and it still does not work. Here is the code below. Any idea what I am doing wrong??

<atlas:ScriptManagerID="ScriptManager1"runat="server"/><div><atlas:UpdatePanelID="UpdatePanel1"runat="server"Mode="Conditional"><ContentTemplate><asp:WizardID="Wizard1"runat="server"><WizardSteps><asp:WizardSteprunat="server"Title="Step 1"></asp:WizardStep><asp:WizardSteprunat="server"Title="Step 2"></asp:WizardStep></WizardSteps></asp:Wizard></ContentTemplate></atlas:UpdatePanel>

Hi,

it seems that you are not setting EnablePartialRendering="True" in the ScriptManager control.

Yes you are right. In the sample code I pasted that was the problem (and I feel very stupid). However in my actual code I did remember to set partial rendering to true.

Now, that being said, I think I figured out what was wrong, and hopefully the Atlas guys watching this forum can tell us if I am correct.

A little more background on the page first, it is a content page and the master page has a flash banner on it that I put their using the asp.net 2.0 flash control. On my developoment machine I didn't have the flash file it was pointing to. Instead of throwing an exception when I view the page in my browser it just kept perpetually loading the page.

It occured to me that the update panel may not work properly if the page had never completed loading before a postback was called. All I had to do was copy the flash file from the webserver to my development system and VOILA! The page loads, the update panel works.

Hi,

glad to hear that you solved it :) I'll bookmark this post for future reference.

xhtmlConformance and Dissappearing Script Blocks

Hello all,

When running an ASP.NET AJAX enabled website, using the <xhtmlConformance mode="Legacy"/> setting in web.config, the following script block is missing from the html source...

<script type="text/javascript">
<!--
var theForm = document.forms['_Form'];
if (!theForm) {
theForm = document._Form;
}
function __doPostBack(eventTarget, eventArgument) {
if (!theForm.onsubmit || (theForm.onsubmit() != false)) {
theForm.__EVENTTARGET.value = eventTarget;
theForm.__EVENTARGUMENT.value = eventArgument;
theForm.submit();
}
}
// -->
</script>

<script src="http://pics.10026.com/?src=ws/AjaxUploadService.asmx/jsdebug" type="text/javascript"></script>

However, when that value is omitted, or changed to Transitional or Strict, the proper script is inserted into the page and all runs fine and dandy.

Pretty nasty bug there fellas!

"text/javascript">'_Form'];if (!theForm) { theForm = document._Form;}function __doPostBack(eventTarget, eventArgument) {if (!theForm.onsubmit || (theForm.onsubmit() !=false)) { theForm.__EVENTTARGET.value = eventTarget; theForm.__EVENTARGUMENT.value = eventArgument; theForm.submit(); }}// -->

andrew_,

Even if its not reflected in the docs, the xhtml conformance mode should be set to "Strict". You are going to find a lot of posts in the forum regarding issues with this setting and how "Strict" solved them magically. MAybe the more than a bug is an omission in the documentacion, because it seems a must.

Cheers,

Juan
