I have this webform with 3 AutoCompleteExtenders using the AjaxControlToolkit. The first one deals with customers from a database and that works very well. I have place 2 others in a gridview, AutoCompleteExtenders 2 and 3 to fetch items. For some reason, these do not work and a breakpoint in Items.asmx does not reach when running the code. I have setup these 2 extenders same as the customer one.
What am I doing wrong? I have searched articles online on use in gridviews but am unable to find the issue.
I have
<asp:ScriptManager ID="ScriptManager1" runat="server" EnablePageMethods="true">
in the masterpage.
Code in webform:
<%@ Page Title="" Language="C#" MasterPageFile="~/Site.Master" AutoEventWireup="true" CodeBehind="Default.aspx.cs" Inherits="PipemanWebPortal.Views.PurchaseOrders.Default" %>
<%@ Register Assembly="AjaxControlToolkit" Namespace="AjaxControlToolkit" TagPrefix="ajaxToolkit" %>

$(".alert").fadeTo(1500, 0).slideUp(500, function () {

}, 3000);
});
// On Page Load
$(function () {

});
// On UpdatePanel Refresh
var prm = Sys.WebForms.PageRequestManager.getInstance();
if (prm != null) {
prm.add_endRequest(function (sender, e) {

Looks like the other two AutoCompleteExtender are on two different <asp:Panel>, try put on same Panel,
<asp:Panel ID="Panel1" runat="server" BackColor="#E6E6E6">. that's probably the reason why the first one is working, and other two are not.
