Hi
UpdatePanelAnimation Extender is a simple and very good up
gradation of the Update Progress. It allows declerative fashion and us to use
the powerful animation framework in a very easy. We can use the Update panel
Animation extender to play animation both while the update panel is updating
and also when the update panel has finished updating. This can help us interact
with the user while there is a call back in process and we can use the existing
Animation framework to provide users with good interactivity while the call
back is in process and also when the call back has completed.
The code to use the UpdatePanelAnimation Extender looks like
this.
<atlasToolkit:UpdatePanelAnimationExtender ID="ae" runat="server">
<atlasToolkit:UpdatePanelAnimationProperties TargetControlID="up">
<Animations>
<OnUpdating> ... </OnUpdating>
<OnUpdated> ... </OnUpdated>
</Animations>
</atlasToolkit:UpdatePanelAnimationProperties>
</atlasToolkit:UpdatePanelAnimationExtender>
Here the TargetControlID is the ID of the UpdatePanel whose
updates will be used to show animation.
OnUpdating and OnUpdated tags contain the
generic animation that will be played.
Hope this helps
Thanks
Vikram
