Why updatepanel triggers another updatepanel?
- by HasanGursoy
I have two update panels at my ajax page. This is first time I'm using updatepanel and I don't know what is wrong. I think only btnFilter's Click event must trigger the second update panel's content but changing combo values (which also hides/unhides btnFilter button) makes second updatepanel change content (at least I see transferred data with firebug & second updatepanel blinks sometimes). Online here.
<asp:UpdatePanel ID="upComparison" runat="server">
<ContentTemplate>
Brand:
<asp:DropDownList ID="ddlBrands" runat="server" AutoPostBack="true"
OnSelectedIndexChanged="ddlBrands_SelectedIndexChanged"
AppendDataBoundItems="true">
<asp:ListItem Value="" Text="Please select a brand..." />
</asp:DropDownList>
<asp:Panel ID="pModels" runat="server" Visible="false">
Model:
<asp:DropDownList ID="ddlModels" runat="server" AutoPostBack="true"
OnSelectedIndexChanged="ddlModels_SelectedIndexChanged" />
</asp:Panel>
<asp:Panel ID="pButton" runat="server" Visible="false">
<asp:UpdateProgress ID="upMain" runat="server" DisplayAfter="100">
<ProgressTemplate><img src="/Assets/Images/loader.gif" />
</ProgressTemplate>
</asp:UpdateProgress>
<asp:Button ID="btnFilter" runat="server" Text="Filter"
OnClick="btnFilter_Click" />
</asp:Panel>
</ContentTemplate>
</asp:UpdatePanel>
<asp:UpdatePanel ID="upList" runat="server">
<ContentTemplate>
<asp:Repeater ID="rProducts" runat="server">
<ItemTemplate>some code here</ItemTemplate>
</asp:Repeater>
</ContentTemplate>
<Triggers>
<asp:AsyncPostBackTrigger ControlID="btnFilter" EventName="Click" />
</Triggers>
</asp:UpdatePanel>
