It is possible for a ModalPopupExtender to be displayed using a postback. You'll need an invisible target control.

<asp:Button runat="server" ID="btnShowModal" Text="Show"
     OnClick="btnShowModal_Click" />
<asp:Button runat="server" ID="HiddenForModal" style="display: none" />
<ajaxToolKit:ModalPopupExtener ID="Modal1" runat="server"
     TargetControlID="HiddenForModal" PopupControlID="PopupPanel" />


In your message handler in code-behind, you'll show the ModalPopupExtender:

Modal1.Show();

And in the code you're using to dismiss the Modal, call the ModalPopupExtender's Hide function:

Modal1.Hide();

Then use this method for showing a modal that displays detailed data that I retrieve from a database based on what's selected in a GridView.

Thanks for Tim to this trick :)

If you cannot open or build an Office InfoPath project in Visual Studio under source control, you need to read this KB article: http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;887039

Not mentioned in the KB article, is that when you try to build, this error will show as:

 

The "UpdateInfoPathManifest" task failed unexpectedly. System.UnauthorizedAccessException: Access to the path '<projectdir>\InfoPath Form Template\manifest.xsf' is denied."

 

To fix this problem, check-out the manifest.xsf for edit.

Thanks to Ryan Beesley
