Disable/Enable ASP.net button when clicked using AJAX

[manishsawant]

Hi,

I am using ASP.net 2.0 and Ajax Extensions 1.0. I have got some controls on the page and a search button(asp.net button). When i click the search button i make a call to a web service which gets me the data. What i want to do is to disable the search button till i get the data and then enable it again.

Thanks,
Manish

You can do this in javascript from the OnClientClick event e.g.

OnClientClick="this.disabled=true;"

You then just have to register some javascript when the call finished to re-enable the button.

Hi Mark,

I tried your suggestion and when i click on the button it makes it disable but the click event of the buttons doesnt get fired and the button is disabled forever.

Thanks,

Try adding this attribute to your button:

UseSubmitBehavior="false
