UpdateProgress linked to Multiple UpdatePanel controls

asp.net-ajax, webforms

Solution

I don't think so. Trying this programmatically, it insists on having a string ID for the UpdatePanel, and gives no indication that you can associate a collection of UpdatePanels with a particular UpdateProgress control.

UpdateProgress1.AssociatedUpdatePanelID = "UpdatePanel1";

From the Metadata:

Summary:
        //     Gets or sets the ID of the System.Web.UI.UpdatePanel control that the System.Web.UI.UpdateProgress
        //     control displays status for.

So, I can't see that you can do this. Good question though.

Problem

Is there a way to have a single UpdateProgress control associated with mupltiple UpdatePanel controls? something like this: ``` <asp:UpdatePanel ID="UpdatePanel1" runat="server"> <ContentTemplate> ..... </ContentTemplate> </asp:UpdatePanel> <asp:UpdatePanel ID="UpdatePanel2" runat="server"> <ContentTemplate> ..... </ContentTemplate> </asp:UpdatePanel> <asp:UpdateProgress ID="UpdateProgress3" runat="server" AssociatedUpdatePanelID="UpdatePanel1, UpdatePanel2">..... ```
