Access radrotator click events for controlbuttons server-side

[Zeyad]

Hello,

I am using a RadRotator to display one item at a time. I have my own controlbuttons (using ImageButtons) to navigate the RadRotator left and right. 

I want to perform a server-side action on my page whenever a user clicks the left or right navigation buttons. Unfortunately, the onclick event for my ImageButton is not working whenever the ImageButton is used as a controlbutton for the RadRotator. 

How do I accomplish my scenario? 

Thanks,
Zeyad

Hello Zeyad,

The RadRotator custom buttons, once attached to the control, will stop doing postbacks. This is an expected behavior as rotator buttons are required to only change the currently displayed item.
Still you can attach to the OnClientClick event of the image buttons and within the handler initialize an Ajax request using RadAjaxManager. You can review the help articles on using this control and particularly the one with initializing custom Ajax requests - http://www.telerik.com/help/aspnet-ajax/ajax-add-ajaxrequest-to-client-event.html.

Hope this helps.

Thanks so much. I got it to work based on the article.
