Problem using CascadingDropDown control from AjaxContro lToolkit on sharepoint 2010

Question

I tried to use CascadingDropDown control on a sharepoint visual webpart including the project as a web service. Of course it didn´t work as i expected. Has anyone used this control in a sharepoint webpart or knows how to implement a cascading drop down using Ajax ?

Answer 2

thanks for your answer i will review that approach to, but well. . what a did wrong was write inside the update panel a form tag

<asp:UpdatePanel ID="AjaxSampleUpdatePanel" runat="server">
    <ContentTemplate>
        <form></form>
    </ContentTemplate>
</asp:UpdatePanel>

but that was making the problem so i just change the form tag ubication like this

<form>
   <asp:UpdatePanel ID="AjaxSampleUpdatePanel" runat="server">
        <ContentTemplate>

        </ContentTemplate>
    </asp:UpdatePanel>
</form>

and that make the code works!!
