I have an UpdateProgress bar inside user control. Whenever I click Save-button, UpdateProgress-control display "Data loading" text. This is what I want and everything works as wanted. However I have a linkbutton inside that same user control, which displays a help panel when clicked and in that case I don't want UpdateProgress to execute. Is there a way to disable UpdateProgress when a certain control is clicked (like LinkButton in this case) ?

Hi,

You can put the controls that needs to show updateProgress into an UpdatePanel. And set AssociatedUpdatePanelID property of UpdateProgress to this UpdatePanel. LinkButton can be put into another UpdatePanel. The UpdateProgress will be shown only when the associated UpdatePanel is updated.
