Web: ASP.NET AJAX

The RadFileExplorer is a fairly new control in our ASP.NET AJAX suite and we are happy to see that a lot of people are already adopting it into their solutions. In this post I will show how to make the file explorer work with SharePoint libraries. By default, the control interfaces with a virtual folder in your web application and allows you to do all kinds of file/folder operations (create new folders, upload/move/delete items, preview, etc.). Unfortunately, the default behavior of the control is limited to virtual folders that can be mapped to physical locations on the server's drives. MOSS web...

The RadWindow control is part of the Telerik’s RadControls for ASP.NET AJAX suite and is intended to replace the standard browser’s popup (window.open()). Since the control is based on an IFRAME, it behaves just like one – basically, whatever can be done with an IFRAME, can be achieved with RadWindow as well. This fact is useful when you investigate a reason for some problem related to the RadWindow control. Just replace the RadWindow with a standard IFRAME or browser’s popup and see how your application will behave in this case. If the problem still exists, then it is not related to the...

In a recent webinar, I showed an example of how you can build a superior user experience in an ASP.NET website by using RadChart for Silverlight. The Telerik Silverlight chart has animations, rich rendering, and is much more visual appealing than the “static” RadChart for ASP.NET. But while the Silverlight chart is a great way to enhance data visualizations in your ASP.NET site, how do you handle users that don’t have Silverlight installed? One approach is to implement “graceful degradation.” Graceful degradation is an important and familiar principle in web design, and essentially it means this: if you build features into...

I recently showed you how to get started working with the RadControls for ASP.NET AJAX on Azure. It’s really a lot easier than you might think. If you missed the first two posts (and the follow-up videos), here they are for quick reference: RadControls for ASP.NET AJAX on Azure Deploying RadControls to Azure Azure Videos on Telerik TV Today, I updated the live running Telerik demo on Azure to feature the complete Telerik Web Mail demo! That means you can now see almost all of the RadControls for ASP.NET AJAX running live on the Azure Cloud. Included in the demo are RadGrid, RadEditor, RadSplitter, RadMenu, RadAjax,...

We have received several requests to integrate a formula editor for RadEditor or allow editing of MathML. The wonderful guys at WIRIS(http://www.wiris.com/) have the right tools for this job so we decided to post an example of the WIRIS formula editor and CAS working as RadEditor dialogs.   A couple of words about the formula editor - it uses a Java applet so be sure to have the Java plugin installed in your browser. We used the basic ASPX demo that WIRIS offers as a base for our integration example. The demo can be seen here - http://www.wiris.eu/demo-aspx/pluginwiris/generic/. There are two editors...
