Question

I have a button nested inside an update panel which has a CommandArgument tied to it. This calls a method which updates some label and text in an area not contained in the UpdatePanel. If I comment out the update panel the button works correctly so I know it is coming from the update panel. Anyone know how I can pass this through?

protected void Button_Command(object sender,
System.Web.UI.WebControls.CommandEventArgs e)
{
//update textboxes and labels here
}

    <asp:UpdatePanel ID="UpdatePanel1" runat="server">
<ContentTemplate>
    <div>


                                    <asp:DataList ID="dListItems" runat="server" DataKeyField="PRODUCT_ID" RepeatColumns="4"
                                        RepeatDirection="Horizontal"  ShowFooter="False" ShowHeader="False" CellPadding="4">
                                        <HeaderTemplate>
                                            No Record Found....!
                                        </HeaderTemplate>
                                        <ItemTemplate>

                                                            <asp:Button ID="Button" runat="server" Text="Add to Cart" 
                                                            CommandArgument='<%# Eval("Id") %>'  CausesValidation="False"  
                                                            CssClass="ui-button ui-widget ui-state-default ui-corner-all ui-button-text-only" 
                                                            OnCommand="Button_Command"   
                                                            /></span></span></p>

                                        </ItemTemplate>
                                    </asp:DataList>

                    </div>

                </td>
            </tr>
        </table>
    </div>
</ContentTemplate>

Answer 1

which updates some label and text in an area not contained in the
UpdatePanel

That’s the problem. UpdatePanel will only update what is within and not what is outside. Try to put those control also the UpdatePanel and see them worked
