fire itemclick event

How can i fire itemclick event when the navigateurl property of menuitem is set

[Princy]

Hi Sigma,

One of the possible solutions is to subscribe to the ItemDataBound / ItemCreated event and set the NavigateUrl property to an empty string as follows.

ASPX:

<telerik:RadMenuItem runat="server" Text="This item will not fire ItemClick event"  NavigateUrl="myPage.aspx">
</telerik:RadMenuItem>

C#:

protected void RadMenu1_ItemDataBound(object sender, RadMenuEventArgs e)
{
    e.Item.Attributes["NavigateUrl"] = e.Item.NavigateUrl;
    e.Item.NavigateUrl = "";
}
protected void RadMenu1_ItemClick(object sender, RadMenuEventArgs e)
{
    //Custom code here
    //Navigate
    Response.Redirect(e.Item.Attributes["NavigateUrl"].ToString());
}

Please take a look into this documentation for more information.

Hope this helps.

Regards,
Princy.

protected void RadMenu1_ItemClick(object sender, RadMenuEventArgs e)
{
//Custom code here
// I have ModalPopupExtender.Show() which is not getting fired
//Navigate
Response.Redirect(e.Item.Attributes["NavigateUrl"].ToString());
}

Hi Archana,

I have already answered your support ticket on the matter, for convenience I am pasting my answer below:

The faced behavior is specific to the AJAX framework page-life cycle and cannot be controlled by us. When the Response.Redirect() the browser navigates to the new page, without rendering the current one again (the Page_PreRender event) thus the ModalPopupExtender is not shown.
