I am working on a tabbed page (4 tabs – tab container) where 2 of them use the same control and have a different gridview with different dats sources which can edit and add items.
Editing and adding items works fine, however when I add an item the gridview or page needs to refresh or update to display the new item. Using Response.Redirect only refreshes the page and redirects to the first tab. I am working on tabs 2 and 3 and the redirect needs to point to the relevant tab, not always the 1st tab.
Any suggestion on how to do this?
I am using Visual Studio 2010, C# ASP.Net

Response.Redirect("ManageRoutingPage.aspx"); // <-- This goes back to tab 1 instead of 3
}

}
After all that, all I needed was the databind(); Like so….
