I have a User control (because I use the same in other page, so I thought I should reuse code and not double my work), but in this page I show a list of companies and each one has a company number, I need to pass this company number to that User Control and it has to reload using that passed company number.

How can I accomplish this?

what I have so far:

alt text http://www.balexandre.com/temp/2009-09-17_0917.png

the Show company structure link is made of

<a href="javascript:showStruct('112:201334607','5564967221');" 
   class="showStructLink">Show company structure</a>

the showStruct method is written like

  function showStruct(pid, cnr) {
     if (_showStrut == 0)
        return;

     // fancy stuff to be more apealing visually
     $("#tdSearch").removeClass("tabTitleUp01").addClass("tabTitleDownUp01");
     $("#tdStruct").removeClass("tabTitleDownUp02").addClass("tabTitleUp02");

     $("#srtr1").hide();
     $("#srtr2").hide();
     $("#sttr1").show();

     // enable Search Results tab to be clicked in order to get back
     $("#tdSearch")
        .addClass("pointer")
        .bind("click", function() { hideStructure(); });

     // pass the company number and reload wcCompanyStruture web user control
     // __doPostBack('RefreshWebUserControl', cnr);
  }

I can make a simple aspx page with the control inside and from jQuery invoke $.get() to run and populate the control correctly, but I really want to learn how to do this properly, using the ASP.NET AJAX Method to send a number and call RefreshData on it

using code-behind it is easy to refresh the user control, just invoking

wcCompanyStruture.RefreshData("companyNumberHere");

what do I need to do in my User Control side and well in the showStruct method to create this behavior?

All help is appreciated, Thank you.

    I know this is not the answer to you question but I think you may be asking the wrong question.

    It looks to me as if you have a search result+details view scenario that you are going about the wrong way.

    When you click “Show Company structure” you want to see the details on the second tab right? If this is the case then the tab approach would be confusing to the user, it would be better with a modal popup that shows the details. No postback just AJAX load a page with the details into a modal popup window.

    This is very easy with JQuery using the dialog widget in JQueryUI and the AJAX load function $('#SomeDiv').load('details.aspx?id='+companyid);

    http://docs.jquery.com/Ajax/load#urldatacallback

    It would give a much better user experience and it is surprisingly simple to code.

    I hope this helps.
