Hello, I am modifying a web application that also uses ajaxToolkit:ToolkitScriptManager; specifically, I need to make some WebService methods (defined in separate .asmx files) accessible through javascript from the client.

This, simply put, doesn't work; but if I replace the ToolkitScriptManager with the standard asp:ScriptManager, it works again.

So it would seem that the ToolkitScriptManager has the significant drawback of preventing association of WebServices to client script by normal means; can anyone confirm that? I could not find any documentation of this anywhere on the net.

Hi All,

I got solution for the above issue. I was trying to set focus using the code

this.ScriptManager1.SetFocus(myControlName.ClientID);

and I wrote this code in my SelectedIndexChanged Event Function. That time this code didn't work.

Now I changed this code to Page Load Function i.e.

protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
if (!IsPostBack)
{
this.ScriptManager1.SetFocus(myControlName.ClientID);
}
else
{
this.ScriptManager1.SetFocus(GetPostBackControl(this.Page).ClientID);
}
}

Here I am using a function GetPostBackControl() to identify the current postbacking control and I am setting focus to the same control. If you want to move focus to any other control, just use a Switch Statment.

public static System.Web.UI.Control GetPostBackControl(System.Web.UI.Page page)
{
Control control = null;
string ctrlname = page.Request.Params["__EVENTTARGET"];
if (ctrlname != null && ctrlname != String.Empty)
{
control = page.FindControl(ctrlname);
}
// if __EVENTTARGET is null, the control is a button type and we need to
// iterate over the form collection to find it
else
{
string ctrlStr = String.Empty;
Control c = null;
foreach (string ctl in page.Request.Form)
{
// handle ImageButton controls ...
if (ctl.EndsWith(".x") || ctl.EndsWith(".y"))
{
ctrlStr = ctl.Substring(0, ctl.Length - 2);
c = page.FindControl(ctrlStr);
}
else
{
c = page.FindControl(ctl);
}
if (c is System.Web.UI.WebControls.Button ||
c is System.Web.UI.WebControls.ImageButton)
{
control = c;
break;
}
}
}
return control;
}

Thank you,

Hi All,

I need one help from you. I am trying to set focus todifferent controls after my different PostBack events, butthis.ScriptManager1.SetFocus(myControlName.ClientID); is not working.

In my ASPX page I have RAD CONTROLS (RadComboBox and RadCalendar) and alsoI am using AjaxControlToolkit Controls (ToolkitScriptManager andModalPopupExtender) also.

In my page, RadComboBox is inUpdatePanel - ContentTemplate area and on its SelectedIndexChangedfunction I am trying to set focus to another Control using the abovecode:

this.ScriptManager1.SetFocus(myControlName.ClientID);

but this is not working... Do anyone know any solution for this?

Can I use ToolkitScriptManager for set focus?

Thanks...
