multiple OpenerElementIDs for one RadWindow

[Craig Wallace]

Hi,

I have a radwindow which contains lots of nice functionality, but I need it to be openable by two different OpenerElementIDs.  I'd rather avoid having to duplicate the window just to acheive this.

How can I wire up two OpenerElementIDs to the same RadWindow?
Also...
Once that is done, how can I tell which opener was used to open that instance of the window?

Thanks,

Craig

Hello Craig,

I don't believe that situation is possible. The only way to allow muliple controls to open the same RadWindow would be to set the OnClientClick event of the control you want to open the RadWindow to something like so:

OnClientClick="radopen(null, '[Name Of RadWindow]'); return false;"

To determine which control opened the RadWindow, I guess you could pass something in the query string to the url used by the RadWindow.

I hope that helps.

Hi Cori,

What is the [Name Of RadWindow] value?  I don't see a name attribute on the tag?

Thanks.

Hello,


More information on opening the RadWindow from client code can be found here.
Opening Windows

As Cori sugegsts, you can use query string to pass the parameter to window. It is also possible to pass arguments to radwindow when opening/closing the window. Checkout the documentation for more information on this.

you can use something like this:

<script type="text/javascript">
    function ShowExternalLoginWindow() {
        var oWnd = $find("<%=wndExternalAccess.ClientID%>");
        oWnd.show();
    }
</script>

<telerik:RadWindow runat="server" ID="wndExternalAccess">
</telerik:RadWindow>

<asp:ImageButton runat="server" ID="imgOpenId" OnClientClick="ShowExternalLoginWindow(); return false;" />
