    Using the RadFileExplorer for ASP.NET AJAX in a MOSS web application

    The RadFileExplorer is a fairly new control in our ASP.NET AJAX suite and we are happy to see that a lot of people are already adopting it into their solutions. In this post I will show how to make the file explorer work with SharePoint libraries. By default, the control interfaces with a virtual folder in your web application and allows you to do all kinds of file/folder operations (create new folders, upload/move/delete items, preview, etc.). Unfortunately, the default behavior of the control is limited to virtual folders that can be mapped to physical locations on the server's drives. MOSS web...

    Integrating RadEditor for ASP.NET AJAX with the WIRIS family of products

    We have received several requests to integrate a formula editor for RadEditor or allow editing of MathML. The wonderful guys at WIRIS(http://www.wiris.com/) have the right tools for this job so we decided to post an example of the WIRIS formula editor and CAS working as RadEditor dialogs.   A couple of words about the formula editor - it uses a Java applet so be sure to have the Java plugin installed in your browser. We used the basic ASPX demo that WIRIS offers as a base for our integration example. The demo can be seen here - http://www.wiris.eu/demo-aspx/pluginwiris/generic/. There are two editors...

    Easy appointment styling with RadScheduler for ASP.NET AJAX

    Say you've assigned a resource to an appointment and you want to make it visually distinctive from the rest.  The resource can be anything - room, status, priority and so on. Until the Q1'09 release this required writing some code, but not any more. You can now define a set of resource filters that will apply a CSS class when a match is found. For example: <telerik:RadScheduler runat="server" ID="RadScheduler1" ...> <ResourceStyles> <telerik:ResourceStyleMapping Type="Calendar" Text="Development" ApplyCssClass="rsCategoryGreen" /> <telerik:ResourceStyleMapping Type="Calendar" Text="Marketing" ApplyCssClass="rsCategoryRed" /> <telerik:ResourceStyleMapping Type="Calendar" Text="Work" ApplyCssClass="rsCategoryOrange" /> </ResourceStyles></telerik:RadScheduler> .csharpcode, .csharpcode pre { font-size: small; color: black; font-family: consolas, "Courier New", courier, monospace; background-color: #ffffff; /*white-space: pre;*/ } .csharpcode pre { margin: 0em; } .csharpcode .rem { color: #008000; } .csharpcode .kwrd { color: #0000ff; } .csharpcode .str { color: #006080; } .csharpcode .op { color: #0000c0; } .csharpcode .preproc { color: #cc6633; } .csharpcode .asp { background-color: #ffff00; } .csharpcode .html { color: #800000; } .csharpcode .attr { color: #ff0000; } .csharpcode .alt { background-color: #f4f4f4; width: 100%; margin: 0em; } .csharpcode .lnum { color: #606060; } You can match resource's type, key and/or text. All matching rules will be applied. For your convenience, we've included a number of predefined styles: rsCategoryBlue...

    How To: Use WCF services with ASP.NET AJAX databound controls

    As you know RadControls for ASP.NET AJAX controls fully leverage .NET 3.5 and come with built-in support for LINQ, LinqToSQL, EntityDataSource, ADO.NET DataServices, and WCF Web Service. With Q1 2009 our online examples feature .NET 3.5 examples for all databound controls (Grid, Scheduler, ComboBox, Menu, TreeView, PanelBar). In this post I will guide you through the process of creating a RadComboBox which loads its items on demand using WCF services.
