RadWindow causes page reload

[Victor]

Hi, I have a button to programatically build the url for one RadWindow, but I have some strange problem showing the window, after the Window is closed, every control that must initiate an Ajax request forces a page reload on postback and the window apperas again.

This is my code on the page

    <script type="text/javascript">
   
    function OpenFreqWindow()
    {
        var mgr =  $find('RadWindowManager1'); // GetRadWindowManager();
//        alert(mgr);
        mgr.show();
        return false;
    }           
    function OpenWindow(url)
    {                     
        var mgr =  $find('RadWindowManager1'); // GetRadWindowManager();
        //alert(mgr);       
        var wnd = mgr.open(url, null);                              
        return false;
    }              
    </script>


this is the RadWindowManager

    <telerik:RadWindowManager ID="RadWindowManager1" runat="server" Skin="Vista" Animation="None" Behavior="Default" Behaviors="Default" InitialBehavior="None" InitialBehaviors="None" Left="" Top="">
        <Windows>
            <telerik:RadWindow runat="server" Animation="None" Behavior="Default" Behaviors="Default"
                InitialBehavior="None" InitialBehaviors="None" Left="" NavigateUrl=""
                Skin="Vista" Style="display: none;" Top="" Modal="True" Width="500px" Height="500px">
            </telerik:RadWindow>
        </Windows>
    </telerik:RadWindowManager>

the code behind

    protected void btnShowWindow_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
    {
            String url = "SomePage.aspx?source=fromWindow";
            GridItemCollection items = RadGrid1.Items;
            foreach (GridDataItem item in items)
            {
                TableCell cell = item["CheckBoxTemplateColumn"];
                CheckBox chkItem = cell.Controls[1] as CheckBox;
                if (chkItem.Checked)
                {
                    ++docCount;
                    url += "&doc"+docCount.ToString()+"=" + item["CustomerID"].Text;
                }
            }
            InjectScript.Text = "<script type='text/javascript'>Sys.Application.add_load(function(){OpenWindow('" + url + "')})</script>";
        }
    }

Can somebody help me with this issue? I've spent 2 days trying to figure out what's wrong

Any help would be appreciated

Thanks in advance

Hi

I am having the same problem.  I have a page with a radgrid on it.  I have item buttons to display additional information in a radwindow.  When the button is clicked the page reloads/redisplays and then the radwindow pops up.  If the person had scrolled down the page then they are put back to the top of the page which is no good.

This is the radwindowmanager definition.

    <telerik:RadWindowManager ID="RadWindowManager1" runat="server" VisibleStatusbar="false"
        Width="768" Height="582" DestroyOnClose="true" ShowContentDuringLoad="false" ReloadOnShow="false">
    </telerik:RadWindowManager>

This is the button definition on the grid.

                            <telerik:GridTemplateColumn UniqueName="TemplateColumn" HeaderText="Bio">
                                <ItemTemplate>
                                    <asp:Button ID="BioButton" runat="server" OnCommand="bioButton_Command" CommandArgument='<%# DataBinder.Eval(Container.DataItem, "Child_Number").ToString().Trim()%>'
                                        Text="Bio"></asp:Button>
                                </ItemTemplate>
                            </telerik:GridTemplateColumn>

This is the code behind for the button.

        protected void bioButton_Command(object sender, CommandEventArgs e)
        {
            RadWindow newWindow = new RadWindow();
            newWindow.NavigateUrl = "BioDisplay.aspx?ChildToDisplay=" + e.CommandArgument;
            newWindow.VisibleOnPageLoad = true;
            newWindow.Modal = true;
            newWindow.Behaviors = WindowBehaviors.Close;
            RadWindowManager1.Windows.Add(newWindow);
        }

How do I stop the main page from reloading?

Thanks Paul

Hello Paul,

This behavior is expected - you are doing a postback. If you want to avoid that, you could use RadAjax and Ajax callbacks, or you could open the RadWindow by using its client-side API.

Unfortunately opening the window client-side also causes a problem when you are scolled down the page.  The window is displayed at the center position of where you were scrolled, but the page is then scrolled back to the top of the page.  Is there a way around this?
