Re: Popup Control Extender - UPDATE & FIX

The 60626 version of the Toolkit has some PopupControl changes that make it behave much better in scenarios like this one. You can get the 60626 version from the CodePlex Releases tab for the AtlasControlToolkit project: http://www.codeplex.com/Release/ProjectReleases.aspx?ProjectName=AtlasControlToolkit

Are you using the 60626 version of the Toolkit? It has some good changes that improve the flexibility of PopupControl.

But are you saying that version already fixes the problem or that you can fix the problem using that version and the fix posted here?

No, in the website http://atlas.asp.net/atlastoolkit/Default.aspx I believe the only version available is 1.0.60504.0...where is another version?

I changed the files as Rammesses told (although the file names were not exactly the same), but the problem is still there. Do I need to change anything in my page's code in order to reflect the changes? I've also re-run the atlasocontrolextender.vsi and overwritten the already installed files. But I still get the "assertion failed" error...

Hi Rezak and welcome

rezak:
I'm having the same problem as teh orginal poster and was going to try implement the "hack"... how do I access the .cs files?

The source for the Popup Control Extender is actually installed when you install the ATLAS Control Toolkit itself - in fact, if you watch the installation, the toolkit is actually compiled as the final step!

I installed the toolkit in C:\Program Files\Microsoft\ASP.NET\Atlas Control Toolkit\ so on my machine the Popup Control Extender files can be found in C:\Program Files\Microsoft\ASP.NET\Atlas Control Toolkit\AtlasControlToolkit\PopupControl.

Hope this helps.

Good day all.

Does anyone know the status on this issue? Is it being worked on? Will it be solved in the next release? If so, when can we expect a new release?

I've just tested a simple example to reproduce this bug, but isn't this bug faily critical?

Isn't it impossible to use the popup control inside a composite control that's inside a updatepanel as long as this bug is present? Or have I misunderstood something?

thanks for the update. Currently, I am 30 textbox date type in one form. Hopefully, the next release will solve it.

Thanks.

PopupControl (/UpdatePanel) is very finicky with regard to the location of UpdatePanels. Ted did some looking into this, so I'll defer to him, but I kind of recall that your statement that the PopupControl TargetControlID can not be within an UpdatePanel.

Did any body has the same problems? since if we able to get "GetClientIDForTarget" as the earlier post from this forum topic, then we will not need ton's of Calendar.

Re: HOW To find the target client ID => Re: Popup Control Extender - UPDATE & FIX

It is pretty obvious the reason why it should not have 1:1 but 1:N

If you have 20 Date Textbox. You don't want to have all 20 calendar control in your aspx pages. :)

It will be HUGE page. What you will need is, 1 calendar control and depends on what TargetedClientID you assign in the code behind to the appropriate textbox.

I'm not sure of your scenario, but it may be necessary to have a 1:1 relationship between calendars and text boxes.
