Properties
For a list with the server-side properties and methods of the control, see the Server-Side API of the RadAjaxPanel class.
You can find below the most used RadAjaxControl properties along with some examples.
EnableAJAX - When you set the EnableAJAX property to true (the default), all requests (controls either within the RadAjaxPanel Template or managed by the RadAjaxManager) are handled via AJAX. If this property is false, requests are handled in the legacy postback manner.
EnableHistory - When you set the EnableHistory property to true (the default is false), browser history is enabled, even when using AJAX. The forward and back buttons of the browser work as expected (IE browser only). For more information, see this article: Back and Forward Browser Buttons
EnablePageHeadUpdate - When you set the EnablePageHeadUpdate property to true (the default), the Page
<Head>element can be modified during AJAX updates. You'll find this functionality especially useful when you initiate controls as invisible or you are loading the control dynamically on AJAX request.IsAjaxRequest - Set this property true when the current request is through AJAX and false when the request is a standard postback. In Example 1, "Button1" has been configured to be AJAX-enabled and the alert will display true. Clicking "Button2" will display false.

protected void Button1_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
RadAjaxPanel1.Alert(RadAjaxPanel1.IsAjaxRequest.ToString());
}
protected void Button2_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
RadAjaxPanel1.Alert(RadAjaxPanel1.IsAjaxRequest.ToString());
}
Protected Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As EventArgs)
RadAjaxPanel1.Alert(RadAjaxPanel1.IsAjaxRequest.ToString())
End Sub
Protected Sub Button2_Click(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As EventArgs)
RadAjaxPanel1.Alert(RadAjaxPanel1.IsAjaxRequest.ToString())
End Sub
DefaultLoadingPanelID - This property allows you to specify a default LoadingPanel that will be shown when updating an AJAX enabled controls.
UpdatePanelsRenderMode - This property determines the way of rendering the ajax panels. When you chose the Block option the panels will be rendered as div elements, while if you chose Inline option they will be rendered as span elements.
UpdateInitiatorPanelsOnly - By setting this property to true (its default value is false) only the containers added as UpdatedControls for a specific initiator will be conditionally updated. For more information, you can check out the Update Initiator's UpdatePanels only help article.
ResponseScripts - This collection of strings contain JavaScript that you want to execute when the response returns to the browser. In Example 2 an "alert()" JavaScript function is added to the collection. Also see below for the rendered HTML results showing the call to alert() near the end of the HTML.
protected void Button2_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
RadAjaxPanel1.ResponseScripts.Add("alert('this fires after the response');");
}
Protected Sub Button2_Click(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As EventArgs)
RadAjaxPanel1.ResponseScripts.Add("alert('this fires after the response');")
End Sub
