Hi all!!

I have an accordion in my page which has two panes AP1 and AP2. When the page loades AP1 is selected as default.AP1 has a textbox for entering emailid along with other controls. I have set emailid column in my database to be unique.now when user has filled all the information in AP1 he moves to AP2. after filling the information in AP2. he clicks on the submitt button which is outside the accordion control.

Now the problem that i am facing is because at the time of submitting AP2 is open and AP1 is closed my

txtEmailId.Focus()

is not working as txtEmailId is in the closed pane.

plz suggest how can i open the pane programatically . I am running out of ideas as always..

Hi,

Example below using Ajax:

In client code:

C#

<%@ Register Assembly="AjaxControlToolkit" Namespace="AjaxControlToolkit" TagPrefix="cc1" %>

<cc1:CollapsiblePanelExtender 
                        ID="CollapsiblePanelExtender1" 
                        runat="server" 
                        CollapseControlID="Panel1" 
                        Collapsed="true" 
                        ExpandControlID="Panel1" 
                        TextLabelID="Label1"  
                        CollapsedText="+"  
                        ExpandedText="-" 
                        ExpandDirection="Vertical" 
                        TargetControlID="panelPatientInfo"  
                        ScrollContents="false">
                    </cc1:CollapsiblePanelExtender>

In your Code behind example:

C#

CollapsiblePanelExtender1.Collapsed = false;
