This is a universal method to find the RadMenu client object regardless where it is nested on the page. This method comes in handy if RadMenu is nested in another control:
 |
RadMenu must be rendered only once. For example, you can use this approach if RadMenu is nested in a toolbar template button. However, if RadMenu is nested in a grid with more than one row, the method fails since there will be multiple instances the rendered menu for each grid row. |

<script type="text/javascript">
var menu1;
function StoreMenuClientObject(sender)
{
menu1 = sender;
}
function UtilizeMenuClientObject()
{
alert(menu1.ID);
}
</script>
<AnyControl>
<Template>
<rad:RadMenu ID="RadMenu1" OnClientLoad="StoreMenuClientObject" runat="server">
</rad:RadMenu>
</Template>
</AnyControl>
<input id="Button1" type="button" onclick="UtilizeMenuClientObject()" value="button" /> |
The above approach is possible due to the OnClientLoad event of RadMenu.
|
The StoreMenuClientObject function must be declared before the RadMenu definition. |
