Is it possible to update an UpdatePanel manually using JavaScript or jQuery?
What I have is a TextBox at the top of my page. When a user leaves that TextBox I want to run some server code (it will add a record to my database) then at the bottom of the page I have an UpdatePanel which will get refreshed. The UpdatePanel has a GridView which will have an entry for the record added)
Just call this javascript function. Here UpdatePanel1 is updatepanel's ID
<script type="text/javascript">
var UpdatePanel1 = '<%=UpdatePanel1.ClientID%>';
function ShowItems()
{
if (UpdatePanel1 != null)
{
__doPostBack(UpdatePanel1, '');
}
}
</script>
