TriggerControlIDs Property

The list of the ids of controls that are located outside of this control and which may trigger hidden asynchronous postback.

[Visual Basic]
Public Property TriggerControlIDs As String

[C#]
public string TriggerControlIDs {get; set;}

Remarks

The list contains UniqueIDs of controls separated by coma.

The ID-item in list can start with the "*" character and in this case all contols which UniqueIDs end up with that value will be included. That can be useful when control is located in a INamingContainer such as UserControl.

Different WebAsyncRefreshPanels can not have same triggers.

That property is passed to client as it is. It will have effect only if client has html elements with corresponding ids.

For example, aspx Button control renders the INPUT element which click event triggers submit. The id of that element is equal to ClientID of Button. So, the UniqueID or ClientID of Button can be used in that method.

Another example, aspx TextBox control with enabled AutoPostBack may call function __doPostBack with value of its UniqueID as a first parameter. So, the only UniqueID of that TextBox can be used in that method.
