We would like to thank the over 200 attendees who came to our booth at the spring edition of DevConnections 2009 which took place March 22 - 25, 2009 at the JW Marriott Orlando Grande Lakes in Orlando, Florida.   We were happy to be a Platinum sponsor of the event which comprised of ASP.NET connections, Visual Studio connections, SQL Server connections and SharePoint connections. Everyone who visited the Telerik booth got a cool .NET Ninja T-shirt and had the chance to meet our friendly staff in person and see demos of our new products and product features. Telerik’s Developer evangelist John Kellar...

Had I posted the big news yesterday, many people would've probably thought that it's an April Fools' Day joke. Luckily, it's not a prank and we are very excited to announce that RadControls for ASP.NET AJAX works on the latest distribution of Mono.    Telerik customers have been asking us for Mono support since 2006 and we have been quietly working with Novell to make it happen. After many rounds of feedback and fixes, we are very happy that our collaboration yielded great results - now customers can make their ASP.NET applications truly cross-platform. It's a good time to say a BIG...

I’ll be heading to Nashville, TN this August for DevLink 2009. And as if attending this great conference isn’t enough, they’re giving me a 3-hour time slot and room with a projector and everything. I guess that means I need to find something educational to impart to the those of you who will be in attendance. Good thing I’ve got the perfect session already planned out: ASP.NET AJAX Client Side Framework Deep Drive ASP.NET developers interested in creating rich, client-side web applications must develop a deep understanding of the ASP.NET AJAX client library. Join me as I show you how to...

As you probably know some of our controls support web service load on demand (a.k.a. client-side databinding). Also in ASP.NET MVC we can call controller actions via Ajax. In this blog post I will show you how to populate RadComboBox and RadTreeView on demand by using a controller action which returns JsonResult. Let's start with RadComboBox: Configure RadComboBox for Load on Demand I have added the RadComboBox control to the default Index.aspx view and configured it like this: <telerik:RadComboBox runat="server" ID="RadComboBox1" EnableLoadOnDemand="true" ShowMoreResultsBox="true" EmptyMessage="Type here ..." Height="200px"> <WebServiceSettings Path="Home" Method="LoadItems" /></telerik:RadComboBox> .csharpcode, .csharpcode pre { font-size: small; color: black; font-family: consolas, "Courier New", courier, monospace; background-color: #ffffff; /*white-space: pre;*/ } .csharpcode pre { margin: 0em; } .csharpcode .rem { color: #008000; } .csharpcode .kwrd { color: #0000ff; } .csharpcode .str { color: #006080; } .csharpcode .op { color: #0000c0; } .csharpcode .preproc { color: #cc6633; } .csharpcode .asp { background-color: #ffff00; } .csharpcode .html { color: #800000; } .csharpcode .attr { color: #ff0000; } .csharpcode .alt { background-color: #f4f4f4; width: 100%; margin: 0em; } .csharpcode .lnum { color: #606060; } The important thing here is that RadComboBox is configured as if it were using a web service...
