    Requirements
    RadControls version  

     
    RadControls for ASP.NET AJAX Q3 2009 SP2.NET version

    3.5
    Visual Studio version

    2008
    programming language

     
    browser support

    all browsers supported by RadControls


    PROJECT DESCRIPTION
    I need to process combobox-selections doing this client-side on a page postback;

    Essentially, I need to show  selections followed by "X". Clicking on the "X" should uncheck corresponding value in my combo.
    (see attached image)
    Everything works fine until I click "Apply selections" to initiate postback.
    When page loads, I see that combobox keeps selections (using ViewState).

    What is a correct way to  hook an event that shoud run after combo renders ?

    I tried;
    - body onload="process())
    - placing script at the bottom of the page
    - using JScript  $(document).ready(function()
    - Page.ClientScript.RegisterStartupScript server-side

    In all the instances, when my javascript executes:

    var

     

    combo = $find(comboBoxId);

     

    I'm getting null for combo.

    I suspect that I should use ScriptManager.
    Is it a known issue? What would you suggest ?

    Hello Oleg Slyusarchuk,

    You can use either of the following, which exactly fit your case:
    • Define the pageLoad function on your page. In it, $find will return the client-side object of RadComboBox correctly.
    • Handle the client-side Load event of the RadComboBox:
      function onLoad(sender) {
          // sender == comboBox;
      }

    Sincerely yours,
    Simon

    Simply adding
    function onLoad(sender) {
        // sender == comboBox;
    }


    to the page did not do the trick.
    This event never fired.
    Should I explictly register this function ?

    Hello Oleg,

    You should handle OnClientLoad event of the combobox as it's demonstrated here.

    Best wishes,

    I have 12 Telerik controls on on my page.
    6 of them - combo-boxes that represent filtering for the  6 - RadGrid controls that are being  created dynamically (onInit, server-side) based on the selection combos' selections. All the complex combos interactions are being handled client-side.
    Which of the controls has to have this event (onLoad) registered?
    Is there any page-level event handler similar to body's onload?

    Hello Oleg,

    You can use pageLoad() javascript event which is  page-level and not related to the comboboxes, I also suggest you use Telerik.Web.UI.RadComboBox.ComboBoxes which returns an array containing all the
    combobox instances on the page.

    Best regards,
