I tried recreating your columns and update panel just to test it. I added a
"parent" update panel that holds everything except the Script Manager. And
then I dropped a variation of your code into my button onClick, which
created a Textbox control in the right column's Update Panel.
As expected, the partial post back worked fine. (with the "parent" Update
Panel). I would suggest, breaking through your user control; the two-click
bug might be in there.
I'm not sure what the code for your control looks like.

Thanks for trying it !! ...i still can't figure out what's wrong. The
left side holds a menu with 3 items. 2 of them point to almost empty
user controls (with just a text heading), the other points to a user
control with a heading, a button and a textbox... the onclick of the
button has code to simply put the current date in the textbox. If I
click on that menu item first, it switches to that page and I can
click the button and it posts right away and displays the time... but
if i switch to another menu item and then come back to the one with
the textbox, it takes 2 clicks to get it to post correctly (when
debugging i can see it goes to the main form's Page_Onload and then to
the User Control's Page_Onload, but does not proceed to the
Button1_Click of the user control). Here's the code, maybe someone
sees the problem?
