webparts and multiple updatepanels (ajax)

Dear all

I have a scenario where I have 2 updatepanels on a page, each one containing
a weppartzone. the scriptmanager is outside of the updatepanels. when I go to
design display mode, i can drag and drop just once between the wepartzones -
then the solution breaks.

If the scriptmanager is inside a weppartzone everything works fine.

I found some old post that mentioned this problem. Is this issue resolved in
ASP.NET 3.5? I think it is not. If there is a solution or a workaround, can
you post thisone please?

Thanks in advance for your help,

Marc

Hi Marc,

From your description, you're encountering some problem when using ASP.NET
web part together with the AJAX update panel, correct?

As for this problem, I did found some existing web threads or cases which
mentioned some issue about using web part with AJAX, however, the symptom
seems abit different. Is it possible for you to create a simplified page
or web site project which demonstrate the behavior? You can send me that so
that I can perform some local test on it. You can reach me at the
following address:

"stcheng" + @ + "microsoft.com"

Thank you Steven - sorry for my impatience.

re: webparts and multiple updatepanels (ajax)

Hi Marc,

I have performed some test on the project you supplied.

In the test page, I can see that you put both the ScriptManager and
WebpartManager outside the two updatepanels and there is one webpart zone
in each updatepanel respectively.

I have tried draging/moving webparts in design-mode. It seems after the
first move, the webpart zones become uneditable. Is this also the problem
behavior you encountered?

Then I've done some changes, according to my further test, it is when you
put the "WebPartZone" inside the updatepanel(also I used a single
updatepanel instead of two separate one) will the design mode behavior
works correctly. I think the original problems behavior may due to the
partial update not correctly associate the status of webpart zones with
WebPartManager when you put it outside the updatepanel. Is it possible for
you to put the WebPartManger inside the updatepanel and use a single
updatepanel around the entrie page sections(where you need ajax postback)?

Sincerely,

Steven Cheng

Hi Steven

This will be fine for me. I can live with one update panel.

Thanks,
