I have a multiline RadTextBox with enough text to make the scrollbar visible. Is it possible to detect when the user scrolls to the bottom?

I've done this before with a System.Windows.Forms.RichTextBox, which fires a VScroll event.

private void agreementTextbox_VScroll(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
    Point pt = agreementTextbox.GetPositionFromCharIndex(agreementTextbox.TextLength);
    if (agreementTextbox.ClientRectangle.Contains(pt))
    {
        //user has scrolled down all the way
    }
}

However, I don't see how to do this with a RadTextBox.

Hello Hunter,

The RadTextBox itself does not expose such event. However you could use the DOM scroll event:
http://www.quirksmode.org/dom/events/scroll.html
<script type="text/javascript">
    function scrollHandler(sender, args)
    {
        var textBox = $find(sender.id);
    }
</script>
<telerik:RadTextBox runat="server" ID="RadTextBox1" TextMode="MultiLine" Height="100px" Rows="20" onscroll="scrollHandler(this,event)" />


Kind regards,

Thanks, Vasil. That worked. I did it like this:

<script type="text/javascript">
    function scrollHandler(sender, args)
    {
        var txt = document.getElementById("RadTextBox1");
        if (txt.scrollTop == (txt.scrollHeight - txt.clientHeight))
        {
            //user has scrolled all the way down
        }
    }
</script>
<telerik:RadTextBox runat="server" ID="RadTextBox1" TextMode="MultiLine" Height="100px" Rows="20" onscroll="scrollHandler(this,event)" />
