atlas updatepanel with datalist issue

I have a datalist contained within an atlas updatepanel and that all works fine.

The idea is that the user can create a subset from the items in the datalist, so I would like them to be able to click a button or link for a given item in the datalist and this will then appear in the subset which is contained within its own updatepanel.

The problem I am having is that using the OnItemCommand method and a select linkbutton in the datalist does not work with the updatepanel - the method does not fire on the server. Without the updatepanel it works as expected.

So my question is : what method should I use to create a per item link that will fire the server method, and update the second updatepanel.

Thanks

This may or may not be the correct solution, but it worked for me. Try adding a control event trigger to your update panel that references your datalist and the ItemCommand event. Hope this helps!
