CSS >> Emulating border-color: transparent in Internet Explorer 6
Fortunately, Internet Explorer 7 supports border-color: transparent, but still, there are hardcore IE6 users and it seems that they will never update their browsers. This post is targeted to the developers that care and dare to make their websites crossbrowser. Thanks to a less known Internet Explorer CSS filter, the transparent border in Internet Explorer 6 can be easily achieved. Consider the following lines of CSS code: .testDiv { width: 200px; height: 200px; border: solid 10px transparent; } It works correctly under Internet Explorer 7, FireFox, Opera and Safari, while Internet Explorer displays a solid black border around .testDiv. To put it to work with IE6, we will create another rule, that is visible only in version... -

RadTreeView for ASP.NET Ajax - Optimizing Load On Demand performance
In a previous blog post I mentioned that you should use WebService load on demand in order to squeeze the most performance from RadTreeView. In this post I will show a few other tricks which can be used to improve the loading time even further. All techniques are optional and can be used independently. We start with a simple page containing only a single RadTreeView control with one root node. The testing environment is: Visual Studio 2008 SP1 Intel Core 2 Duo E6550 @ 2.33GHz.

New Integration example using RadControls for Silverlight
To demonstrate a real life business application that uses Telerik RadControls for Silverlight, we prepared another sample application showing a web portal about job offerings. We called it the JobBoard application. We managed to include there most of the currently available RadControls for Silverlight. These are: RadComboBox RadTreeView RadWindow RadUpload RadNumericUpDown RadDatePicker RadMediaPlayer The Home page features a "quick find" section at the top most part of the screen, a tree-view navigation on the left and a grid showing the results. The RadTreeView on the left loads its child nodes on demand for a better performance and faster initial loading. Clicking upon a grid-row pops a RadWindow containing...
