Last week we decided to start syndicating via Feedburner in order to better track the readership of the Telerik Blogs. The updated URL of the main feed is http://feeds.feedburner.com/TelerikWebContext Menu for Silverlight. Integration with RadTreeView
Here at Telerik we are cooking a lot of things with Silverlight. You will see some great new (and big!) controls with our Q3 release that is already knocking on the door. One small, but very popular thing, that is missing in Silverlight2 these days is the Context Menu support. As we got this working already internally, I thought that I'll share the good news with you :) This image above shows the integration between the new RadContextMenu and RadTreeView. As you can see you have full control over the context menu content, and you can also control the shortcut keys that will open the menu. So, any comments about that? ...Web ASP.NET MVCUsing Telerik RadGrid in ASP.NET MVC together with RenderPartial, Ajax.Form, Ajax.ActionLink and UpdateModel
I've made yet another ASP.NET MVC example with RadGrid for ASP.NET AJAX however instead of Html.Form and Html.ActionLink I have used Ajax.Form and Ajax.ActionLink: As a result now you have an ajax enabled grid with paging, sorting, select, edit, update, delete and insert: [Download]...ProductivityVisual Studio Tip: Spice Up the IDE
Developing .NET applications is fun stuff. However, if you're like me sometimes using the same tools every day can get a little boring. That's why I often like to spice things up by changing the look of my IDE. Lucky for us, Visual Studio makes it easy to change the look of your development environment in just a few clicks. By heading to Tools | Import and Export Settings... you can export and save a backup of your current settings (a recommended practice before trying out any new settings) or import new settings from a file. These settings are saved in...May 27, 2021 2 min readPeopleWin $500 for your WinForm application

Summary The technique demonstrates how to transform a non-AJAX scenario which adds a CSS <link> tag to the head of the page to work with AJAX, using a client-side javascript function to register the <link>. Using AJAX in an application is probably the standard now. Partial page rendering offers a number of benefits such as increased page responsiveness, as well as close-to-desktop experience using AJAX-based toolkits such as RadControls for ASP.NET AJAX. However, adding UpdatePanels to the page and expecting that all of your “postback” logic will continue to function without changes is only true for simple scenarios. There are many more advanced...ReleasePage Navigation for Silverlight 2 RC0
Hi my name is Boryana Miloshevska and I’m a member of Telerik`s Silverlight team. This is my first blog post and it is about the new RadPageNavigation framework that we just released for Silverlight 2 RC0. RadPageNavigation is a framework that allows you to easily add navigation service to your application. To do that you can use the provided RadPage, RadFrame, RadFrameContainer and NavigationService classes, or you can use your own classes to implement the IFrame and ITransition interfaces. The framework is 100% compatible with the WPF navigation service. Navigation between pages is supported. You can also use frames inside each page and to...May 27, 2021 4 min readWebCreate a Tabbed MDI using child forms
If you are developing applications for Windows it is almost certain that you have incorporated the Multiple Document Interface (MDI) at some point. This is where you have a parent form that acts as the host for all forms within the application, minus a few exceptions. I know there are debates about whether MDI is an effective approach, but it doesn’t change the fact that MDI is very heavily used. I have found that the Tabbed Document Interface which is essentially an MDI that implements tab navigation between open items is pretty popular. As a matter of fact, this same...May 27, 2021 2 min readWeb ASP.NET AJAXRadMenu for ASP.NET Ajax - Working with disabled JavaScript
As you may know accessibility standards require a web page to work when JavaScript is disabled. In this blog post I will show you how to make RadMenu work even without JavaScript. I will also show how to make JAWS reader "see" all items rendered by RadMenu (even the hidden ones). Disabling JavaScript First we need to find a way to disable JavaScript in our browser of choice. For FireFox you need to install the web developer toolbar plugin. Then you can easily use the "Disable JavaScript" option: In Internet Explorer you should first edit the security settings for the zone in which your...WebRadChart – How to customize databound and auto-generated items?
Imagine you have a databound RadChart and you need to customize the item labels, say you need to combine the values of two fields into a single item label. All you need to do is wire the ItemDataBound event, retrieve the ChartSeriesItem and customize it as per your requirements. You may use the actual data for this, here is an example: protected void RadChart1_ItemDataBound(object sender, ChartItemDataBoundEventArgs e) { ChartSeriesItem item = e.SeriesItem; DataRowView dataItem = (DataRowView)e.DataItem; item.Label.TextBlock.Text = dataItem["FirstName"].ToString() + " " + dataItem["LastName"].ToString(); } That was simple, but what about auto-generated axis items? OK, let’s start with some background – RadChart allows you to modify it at any stage of the page lifecycle, including events fired as...May 27, 2021 1 min read
