Hi Jon,

I'm trying to update another label in the UpdateLabel event of the LabelEdit control, but it does not update. I have set EnablePartialRendering on the usercontrol to true (and confirmed that this is working) but it doesnt seem to recognise that the other label has changed and update it. This is not a dynamic control - do you have any suggestions please?

If you mean another control other than the one firing the event, you are not able to cause the refresh of the other label via this event, however you can easily update it so the next page refresh catches it.  If you went down the sloppy update panel version of ajax you could accomplish this with a trigger.  However, my recommended way would be to take the approach I offer in my DNN AJAX module video found here.

Jon, I'm battling to figure out how to do a simple label update. Basically, I want to have my DNNEditLabel update another label. I am declaring everything, but once I get this working I will do it all progamatically - unforunately I can't even get my label to update with a (dirty ;) UpdatePanel.

Here is my markup (simple as possible):

<asp:UpdatePanel ID="UpdatePanel1" runat="server">
    <ContentTemplate>
        <DNN:DNNLabelEdit id="editLabel" Text="click on me to edit" CallBackType="ProcessPage" runat="server" CssClass="label" LabelEditCssClass="labeledit" WorkCssClass="labeleditwork" MouseOverCssClass="labelhover" OnUpdateLabel="lblStatus_UpdateLabel" /> 
        <br />
        <asp:Label ID="lblIntegration" runat="server" Text="Integration" />
    </ContentTemplate>
</asp:UpdatePanel>

lblStatus_UpdateLabel just has

            lblIntegration.Text = "Updated " + DateTime.UtcNow.ToString();

and I've debugged it and it is defiintely being called.

Things I have tried:

CallBackType of  ProcessPage instead of Simple (as per your template tutorial)

I read somewhere that both controls have to be inside the same UP container, which they are, but I also tried an asyncronous trigger but that did not work.

Am I being really thick or is there more to it than this? Other controls (like a button) next to the DNNEditLabel update the label fine, just not the DNNEditLabel! Once I get this working I can look at your more efficient way.

ps - here is another attempt (using a Trigger):

<DNN:DNNLabelEdit id="editLabel" Text="click on me to edit" CallBackType="ProcessPage" runat="server" CssClass="label" LabelEditCssClass="labeledit" WorkCssClass="labeleditwork" MouseOverCssClass="labelhover" OnUpdateLabel="lblStatus_UpdateLabel" /> 

<asp:UpdatePanel ID="UpdatePanel1" runat="server">
    <ContentTemplate>
        <asp:Label ID="lblIntegration" runat="server" Text="Integration" />
    </ContentTemplate>
    <Triggers>
    <asp:AsyncPostBackTrigger ControlID="editLabel" EventName="UpdateLabel" />
    </Triggers>
</asp:UpdatePanel>
