"Loading" Text

[Shahi]

Hi,

I am populating a radcombobox using the item requested server event. The data is fetched from the database instantly and its being populated. I want to display a "Loading" text explicitly and then only it should be populated.  Any possible method?

Thanks,
Shahi.

Hi Shahi,

I guess you need to show the Loading text even if data is instantly fetched and populated from the database. You can try the following C# code in the beginning of the ItemRequested server side event.

C#:

protected void RadComboBox1_ItemsRequested(object sender, Telerik.Web.UI.RadComboBoxItemsRequestedEventArgs e)
{
    System.Threading.Thread.Sleep(2000); //Loading text is shown for 2 seconds.
    //Your code
}

Thanks,
Princy.
