Solution 1

You can have multiple UpdateProgress controls on the page, and by using the AssociatedUpdatePanelID property, you can make sure that the UpdateProgress is only shown when a certain UpdatePanel is updated.

thank you, sir. but i have to use one update progress as i am not the team leader.

Sandeep Mewara 20-Mar-11 12:34pm

Then you can say to your team leader that it's not possible with one Update Panel.

Sandeep Mewara 20-Mar-11 12:38pm

On second thought, actually it's possible.

Have a look at this article:
http://www.codeproject.com/KB/ajax/AfterAjaxUpdate.aspx

Track the update panel and if it's the one then on client side only, find the updateprogress (rendered as a div) and hide it. Don't show.

Possible.

Basha, I saw your article and it was very helpfull. what i am thinking of is 'the opposite'. or in other works how to use Begin Request. Sir, I started with the code:
window.onload = function() {
var prm = Sys.WebForms.PageRequestManager.getInstance();
if (prm != null) {
prm.add_beginRequest(function(sender, args) {
if ((args.get_postBackElement()).id == ‘<%= Button1.ClientID %>’)
document.getElementById('<%= UpdateProgress1.ClientID %>').style.display='none';
});
} but this didn't work yet. any suggestion;
}

Sir, I have fixed my code to get something working. at the end i should thank you for making time thinking in my problim.

All my Respect, Sir;

Ali, how do you think, is this note appropriate or not?

We're helping developers with architecture/code/design, not relationships in your team. You cannot successfully develop code is you cannot establish feedback to your leader or supervisor, and whole team would suffer.
If anything is wrong with your spec, you should be able to suggest a fix.
From the other hand, if your dependency of your leader is that strong, ask them, not CodeProject. Please, don't make CodeProject members taking care of such detail.

Best wishes,

thank you, sir for this advice. what i mean that i cant take a decision like "we should rewrite the whole application." in the other hand, i am sure that the requirement will change just like a magical trick (this happens all the time).
what i think wha iif he refused my suggestion so i have to find more alternatives. and at least i am learning.
hundred o f roses; Ali.

Sergey Alexandrovich Kryukov 20-Mar-11 23:41pm

What you say is quite understandable, thank you for this note.

At the same time, I think my advice makes sense. In case you're offered an alternative, you should think on its value (instead of denying it as going out of your question (no, I don't say you do so)) as if you make the final decision and/or discuss this with your colleague. After all, you're the author of the Question, so you should take all answers with responsibility.

Please also understand, that good experts do not just answer questions, instead, they use questions to offer the best reasonable help using limited space and time, which is more important.

Very best wishes, good luck,

if we use a div inside the updateprogress we can then hide and show it as necessary.
see the code:

JavaScript

function EndRequest(sender, args) {
    for (i = 0; i < sender._updatePanelIDs.length; i++) {
        if (sender._updatePanelIDs[i] == '<%= UpdatePanel1.UniqueID %>') {
            document.getElementById('<%= UpdateProgress1.ClientID %>').firstChild.style.display = 'block';
        }
    }
}
function BeginRequest(sender, args) {
    for (i = 0; i < sender._updatePanelIDs.length; i++) {
        if (sender._updatePanelIDs[i] == '<%= UpdatePanel1.UniqueID %>') {
            document.getElementById('<%= UpdateProgress1.ClientID %>').firstChild.style.display = 'none';
        }
    }
}

There is nothing like human will.
