Atlas UpdatePanel wont display certain data records

I have a page with a GridView that displays about 50 records, 5 per page. Works great without Atlas. Once I added an Atlas UpdatePanel to the page, the paging of the GridView stopped working. I've researched the problem, added a DetailsView control to the UpdatePanel, and discovered that the 9th record of the dataset won't display with Atlas, but will without Atlas. I can't find anything unusual with the data record. Any help/suggestions? Thanks.

Is it possible that the record contains some data that is not properly HTML encoded? If it's not confidential data, can you show part of that record so we can see it?

We made a number of fixes in the March CTP to allow for more relaxed support for HTML. In the next CTP we will have even better support for data that isn't quite XHTML compliant as well.

Thanks,

Eilon

Atlas updated field to "blink"

Is it possible to have the background of, say, an html SPAN tag blink a certain color when the field has been updated, but just for a second and then go back to the color it was before?

This as an indication to the use that a field has been updated?

Thanks!

We've recently added a component called "DynamicPopulate" that does part of this. It allows you to set an updating CSS class. That gets you part of the way there. We're working on adding the ability to specify animation effects as well, which will get you the rest of the way.

To check out DynamicPopuplate, you can try the source-code bits available at www.codeplex.com.

Cool. Thanks for the info!
