Hello,

Our users don't use the subject field of the appointment... I want to make it optional (no validation) or default it to untitled, because there is a bug with client-side binding and loading the advanced form.

I try to default it like:

//form is the advanced form
form._getSubjectTextBox().set_value("Untitled");

But nothing is working, how to default the subject so the error doesn't appear off of the start?  Or, how do I make it optional so the radtextbox doesn't display the error off of the start...

Thanks.

Nevermind, didn't realize the event argument had a e.get_appointment() property, which I could call set_subject("Untitled"), and that worked.

Silly question for you Brian - what are you using to get a reference to the form?

Hey,

Telerik has two methods: _getAdvancedEditTemplate and _getAdvancedInsertTemplate, DOM references to the templates.  To figure out whether editing or inserting, I just check which one is visible, though I'm sure there is an API-ish way of doing that (was in a hurry, and this worked).  I believe those methods were of the scheduler API.

This is where FireFox comes in handy :-)

HTH.
