How do I determine which Button caused the client side event

[Tim]

Hi

I am using a RadToolBar with several buttons.

I can get the client side event to fire, but I cann't figure out how
to identify which button was clicked.

I'm sure its obvious. :-)

TIA

Hello Tim,

You could use the following client-side event handler to display the text of the clicked button as an alert message:

<script type="text/javascript">
        function OnClientButtonClicking(sender, args) {
            var buttontext = args.get_item().get_text();
            alert(buttontext);
        }
    </script>

Here is also the markup that I used for testing:

<telerik:RadToolBar ID="RadToolBar1" runat="server" OnClientButtonClicking="OnClientButtonClicking">
           <Items>
               <telerik:RadToolBarButton runat="server" Text="Button 0" OuterCssClass="rtbItemFocused">
               </telerik:RadToolBarButton>
               <telerik:RadToolBarButton runat="server" Text="Button 1" OuterCssClass="rtbItemClicked">
               </telerik:RadToolBarButton>
               <telerik:RadToolBarButton runat="server" Text="Button 2" OuterCssClass="rtbItemClicked">
               </telerik:RadToolBarButton>
           </Items>
       </telerik:RadToolBar>

All the best,

Hi,

You can also use the following client-side methods:

var

 

item = eventArgs.get_item();

 

item.get_value() // returns the value property of the button

Or

item.get_index() // returns the index of the button
