Bug ? radMenu unable to postback to http: from https

[CSurieux]

Hello,

My site after a payment under https secured pages should return to http from links inserted in a radMenu.
I am building radmenuItems from code behind and I checked that the navigateUrl contains a full url with scheme like http://MyDom/myPage.aspx but still Radmenu post https://MyDom/MyPage.aspx when the containing page is https

Am I missing something or is it a bug ?

Thanks

CS.

More on this, it is a bug, I will open a ticket.
Looking more in detail it appears that radmenuitems calls ResolveClientUrl in its

        private void RenderLink(HtmlTextWriter writer)
        {
            if (string.IsNullOrEmpty(NavigateUrl))
            {
                writer.AddAttribute(HtmlTextWriterAttribute.Href, "#");
            }
            else
            {
                writer.AddAttribute(HtmlTextWriterAttribute.Href, ResolveClientUrl(NavigateUrl));
            }

This should be done only when NavigateUrl is a relative url, not when a fully qualified url is specified.


Thanks

Hello Christian Surieux,

The ResolveClientUrl method does not change the url if it is fully qualified. You can check if the same behavior occurs with the built-in HyperLink control.

Hello Albert,

 

So what could explain that browser source code shows that menu items are initialized with an https: scheme when I initialize them with http:?

 

I tested that when I assign my url, calling ResolveClientUrl have no impact on it, I agree.

But conditions could change in Render may be due to Ajax.net ?

 

As all the methods and Properties are private in RadMenuItem ( what for ???), I am unable to write my own DebugMenuitem class to override RenderLink and check that at that time ResolveClientUrl doesn’t change the scheme.

 

I will continue this thread on the ticket.

 

Regards
