closing the Jquery mobile panel on submit button - asp.net

I have a jquery mobile panel like so:
<a href="#panel2" class="ss-header-actions-language">
<span class="ss-header-labels" id="ss-general-label">Language</span>
</a>
<div data-role = "panel" id = "panel2" data-display="overlay" data-position="right" data-swipe-close="false" >
<asp:RadioButton ID="rdbEng1" AutoPostBack="true" runat="server" Text="English" GroupName="lang" />
<asp:RadioButton ID="rdbspan1" AutoPostBack="true" runat="server" Text="Español" GroupName="lang" />
<asp:Button runat="server" Text="Submit" OnClick="Submit_Click" />
</div>
I want the panel to close when the submit button is clicked. Right now, panel closes when I select any radio button inside the panel. I want the panel to stay open if the Radio button is clicked, but as soon as I click on submit button, I want the panel to close.
How can I achieve that. Any help will be highly appreciated.

First you need to prevent postback to server, in order to do that set AutoPostBack="false" to RadioButton and you can change asp:Button to input.
Then according to JQuery Mobile Panel:
A panel can also be closed by calling the panel's close method
directly.
So this should work:
<a href="#panel2" class="ss-header-actions-language">
<span class="ss-header-labels" id="ss-general-label">Language</span>
</a>
<div data-role="panel" id="panel2" data-display="overlay" data-position="right" data-swipe-close="false">
<asp:RadioButton ID="rdbEng1" AutoPostBack="false" runat="server" Text="English" GroupName="lang" />
<asp:RadioButton ID="rdbspan1" AutoPostBack="false" runat="server" Text="Español" GroupName="lang" />
<input type="button" onclick="ClosePanel();" name="Submit" value="Submit" />
</div>
<script type="text/javascript">
function ClosePanel() {
$("#panel2").panel("close");
}
</script>

Updating a field in an Master Page's UpdatePanel from CodeBehind

I've got a master page with a cart count at the top of my page inside an updatepanel, along with another updatepanel which wraps a search field tied a dropbox denoting search type. (The UpdatePanelSearch is tied to an AutoCompleteExtender and the Find dropdown at left sets the type of contextkey to be used when autocompleting)
I'm attempting to let code-behind code in a subordinate page (usually the user clicking or manipulating an inventory item of some sort) update the cart count.
Things I've tried:
If UpdatePanelCart and UpdatePanelSearch are both set with updatemode=automatic, UpdatePanelSearch stops reacting to updates of the Find dropdown.
The same happens if I use a single updatepanel to wrap both areas.
If I set UpdatePanelCart's UpdateMode to conditional, then UpdatePanelSearch works properly--but I don't have an obvious way (to me at least) of forcing the refresh of the cart count (i.e., I can set it to a new value in code a code-behind, but it won't actually be redrawn until the page is fully redrawn).
What's the correct strategy here? I'll admit I don't fully understand why #1 and #2 don't work (I suspect the AutocompleteExtender is the reason but I'm really just guessing)
Code for the Search panel follows:
<asp:UpdatePanel ID="UpdatePanelSearch" runat="server">
<ContentTemplate>
<ajaxToolkit:AutoCompleteExtender ID="AutoCompleteExtender2" runat="server"
CompletionInterval="150"

<asp:RadioButton ID="RadioButton1" runat="server" GroupName="findScope" AutoPostBack="True" />
<asp:RadioButton ID="RadioButton2" runat="server" Text="All sellers" Checked="True" GroupName="findScope" AutoPostBack="True" />
</asp:Panel>
</div>
<!-- /input-group -->

<!-- /.col-lg-6 -->

</asp:Panel>

</div>
</asp:Panel>
</ContentTemplate>
</asp:UpdatePanel>
It seems at least one of my problems was my fuzzy understanding of the trigger mechanism for UpdatePanels.
The reason for behavior #1 (the Cart not updating) was that I hadn't placed the UpdatePanelCart closely enough around the cart label. Automatically updating UpdatePanels only update as a result to changes in their immediate child controls unless explicit postbacktriggers are defined. Since the UpdatePanel was wrapping the whole menu line, the automatic update didn't happen.
Behavior #2 (nothing on the page of any consequence updating if I attempted to wrap the whole page in an updatepanel) was related-- none of the controls I wanted to see update were immediate child controls, so this was going to fail.
The solution for me was to draw the updatepanels more narrowly, and do some extra CSS work to work around the formatting issues these inevitably caused to the menu.

Required field validator is not working

I have used a required field validator, on click of add Button error message will be displayed but whatever code written on onclick event will be executed even if the field is empty.
<div class="form-group posrel">
<asp:Label ID="Label1" runat="server" AssociatedControlID="txtDept"><i class="fa fa-pencil"></i></asp:Label>
<asp:TextBox runat="server" ID="txtDept" placeholder="Department Name" ValidationGroup="ss1"></asp:TextBox>
<div class="text-right validators">
<asp:RequiredFieldValidator ID="RequiredFieldValidator1" runat="server"
ErrorMessage="Department Name" ControlToValidate="txtDept" ValidationGroup="ss1">
</asp:RequiredFieldValidator>
</div>
</div>
Below is the code snippet of add button -
<div class="form-group pull-right">
<asp:LinkButton runat="server" ID="lnkbtnaddept" CssClass="btn btn-primary" ValidationGroup="ss1" OnClick="lnkbtnaddept_Click">
<asp:Label runat="server" Text="Add" ID="lbladddept"></asp:Label>
<i style="margin-left: 10px;" class="fa fa-send"></i>
</asp:LinkButton>
</div>
May be this will help you out:
On link-button click event validate your page.
Page.Validate("validation group");
if(Page.isValid){
// your code logic
}
for more on page validate follow the link
https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/0ke7bxeh%28v=vs.110%29.aspx
Turn on JS support for the Validator control by adding attribute:
EnableClientScript="True"
It should prevent a post-back until text box is filled.
take your Id of RequiredFieldValidator and update on back end
or .cs page.
Ans RequiredCityName.Update();

Ajax button with no OnClick event is causing a postback

I am completely new to Ajax and have had no training. I'm just copying a co-worker's code. We have a page with two Ajax controls: one my co-worker wrote and one I wrote. Everything is working fine except for one item, and my co-worker's up to his eyeballs in another project, so I need to figure this out. The problem is that the Ajax control I wrote pops up a ListBox with two buttons: Close and Select. The Select button has an OnClick event and causes a postback, as is expected. However, the Close button does not have an OnClick event and still causes a postback. This is not the case with a very similar Ajax control that my co-worker wrote that sits on the same page. The code is below. My co-worker's code involves the Email Template; mine involves the Email(s) Lookup. For the life of me, I don't see any difference. Can anyone tell me why my Close button causes a PostBack and my co-worker's doesn't?
<!--my co-worker's control-->
<tr>
<td width="20%"><br /><div class="formtext">Email Template:</div></td>
<td colspan="3"><br />

</div>
</td>

Server side buttons always cause a post back. One way to get around it is to add a client click function that returns false.
OnClientClick="return false;"
Edit
Your co-worker has defined the CancelControlID="BtnTemplateClose" on the ModalPopupExtender. That is what is repressing the post back. You also have the CancelControlID defined, but I can't find the close button (btnClose) anywhere in the code you have posted. Where are the close buttons in your control? If you make sure your close button has the ID btnClose, it would most likely work like your co-worker's close button.

make 2nd button on web page the default for enter key

<body>
<form id="form1" runat="server">
<div>
<asp:Button ID="Button1" runat="server" Text="Button1" />
<asp:TextBox ID="TextBox1"
runat="server">
</asp:TextBox><asp:Button ID="Button2" runat="server" Text="Button2" />
</div>
</form>
</body>
how do i make button2 the default action when the Enter key is pressed?
See image:

The defaultbutton property can be specified at the Form level in the form tag as well as at panel level in the <asp:panel> definition tag. The form level setting is overridden when specified at the panel level, for those controls that are inside the panel.

ASP.Net: label control in panel not updating

I have an ASP panel with a modalpopupextender attached to it that is shown dynamically. Within the panel there are two labels that are dynamically populated with text when the panel popup is shown. however, when it is shown the labels are blank (missing). Below is my code for the HTML markup and code behind:
HTML MARKUP
<asp:Panel ID="pnlalert" runat="server" CssClass="modal">
<div class="rel">
<div class="modal-inner-wrapper-alert rounded-corners">
<div class="content rounded-corners">
<div class="body">
<div class="popuppanel">
<div class="popupGnrl-Alert">
<asp:Label ID="alerttitle" runat="server" Text=""></asp:Label><br />
<asp:Label ID="alertlabel" runat="server" Text=""></asp:Label>
<asp:HiddenField ID="section" runat="server" />
<asp:HiddenField ID="violation" runat="server" />
</div>
<div class="popupGnrl-Alert" style="text-align:center;">
<asp:Button ID="cmdMaxAlertOk" runat="server" Text="Yes" Width="50px"
onclick="cmdMaxAlertOk_Click" /> <asp:Button ID="cmdMaxAlertCancel"
runat="server" Text="No" Width="50px" onclick="cmdMaxAlertCancel_Click" />
</div>
</div>
</div>
</div>
</div>
</div>
</asp:Panel>
<asp:ModalPopupExtender ID="mpealert" runat="server" TargetControlID="popuplnk" PopupControlID="pnlalert" >
</asp:ModalPopupExtender>
ASP.NET Code Behind
this.mpealert.Show();
this.alerttitle.Text = "Submission time exceeded";
this.alertlabel.Text = "This expense was incurred greater than 3 months ago and is therefore outside of the normal claim period. Do you still wish to proceed? NOTE: expense may be rejected by Finance.";
What could be causing the labels not to show?
Are you setting the text of the labels in the button event which shows the modal popup extender?
If so, the "show" event is probably being handled client side and your server side text setting code is probably never being called.
Wrap your modalpopupextender in an UpdatePanel and set it's Update condition to Always.
The above answer did not work for me. If we keep the panel inside an update panel and call the update method on update panel, then the contents get updated.
