How do I force full post-back from a button within an UpdatePanel?
You can use the Triggers property of the UpdatePanel to register actions that trigger a full postback. Add a PostBackTrigger object to that property, containig the ControlID of the control which needs to trigger a full postback. <asp:UpdatePanel ID=”UpdatePanel1″ UpdateMode=”Conditional” runat=”server”> <ContentTemplate> … </ContentTemplate> <Triggers> <asp:PostBackTrigger ControlID=”myFullPostBackControlID” /> </Triggers> </asp:UpdatePanel>
