Question

I have a UserControl which contains voting buttons inside an UpdatePanel, and outside a Repeater, it works perfectly. In the repeater, clicking the button fires off the appropriate event. That event is supposed to update the text of a control within the User Control, and that update should be reflected when the UpdatePanel refreshes.

If tried the UpdatePanel in UpdateMode Always and Conditional (firing the Update event after making the changes to the properties in the _Click method, and the same problem happens both ways.

Is there something about how UpdatePanels behave in Repeaters that I’m missing?

Thanks.

The reason might have nothing to do with the update panel, but with the postback loosing track of your UserControl. Possibly assigning unique IDs to your user controls may help.
