Related Radcombobox

[Shweta malpani]

I have a group of Combobox and I am trying to set values of ComboBox B at server side  based on selected values of ComboBox A.

 

<tr>

 

 

<td align="right">

 

 

<asp:Label ID="Label1" runat="server" Text="Release Name:"></asp:Label>

 

 

<br />

 

 

</td>

 

 

<td align="left">

 

 

<telerik:RadComboBox ID="RadRelease" runat="server" Width="240px" EmptyMessage="Please select Type"

 

 

AutoPostBack="true" OnSelectedIndexChanged="RadRelease_Changed" EnableLoadOnDemand="true"

 

 

OnItemsRequested="Release_ItemsRequested" ShowMoreResultsBox="true" EnableVirtualScrolling="true"

 

 

> </telerik:RadComboBox>

 

 

</td>

 

 

</tr>

 

 

<tr>

 

 

<td align="right">

 

 

<asp:Label ID="LblSCRName" runat="server" Text="SCR Name:"></asp:Label>

 

 

<br />

 

 

</td>

 

 

<td align="left">

 

 

<telerik:RadComboBox ID="RadSCR" runat="server" Width="240px" EmptyMessage="Select a Description"

 

 

EnableLoadOnDemand="true" ShowMoreResultsBox="true" EnableVirtualScrolling="true"

 

 

OnItemsRequested="Project_ItemsRequested" >

 

 

</telerik:RadComboBox>

 

 

</td>

 

 

</tr>


Server Side code

 

 

 

 

 

 

protected void Release_ItemsRequested(object sender, RadComboBoxItemsRequestedEventArgs e)

 

{

 

//sys = (string)ViewState["sys"];

 

 

 

 

 

 

SCRObj objscr = new SCRObj();

 

 

DataTable data = objscr.GetReleaseInfo(e.Text,sys, RadReleaseType.SelectedItem.Text);

 

RadRelease.Items.Clear();

 

int itemOffset = e.NumberOfItems;

 

 

int endOffset = Math.Min(itemOffset + ItemsPerRequest, data.Rows.Count);

 

e.EndOfItems = endOffset == data.Rows.Count;

 

for (int i = itemOffset; i < endOffset; i++)

 

{

RadRelease.Items.Add(

new RadComboBoxItem(data.Rows[i]["RELEASE_NAME"].ToString(), data.Rows[i]["RELEASE_NAME"].ToString()));

 

}

 

 

//e.Message = GetStatusMessage(endOffset, data.Rows.Count);

 

 

 

 

 

}

 

protected void Project_ItemsRequested(object sender, RadComboBoxItemsRequestedEventArgs e)

 

{

 

SCRObj objscr = new SCRObj();

 

 

DataTable data = objscr.GetProjectInfo(e.Text, sys, RadReleaseType.SelectedItem.Text,

 

RadRelease.SelectedItem.Text

);

 

int itemOffset = e.NumberOfItems;

 

 

int endOffset = Math.Min(itemOffset + ItemsPerRequest, data.Rows.Count);

 

e.EndOfItems = endOffset == data.Rows.Count;

 

for (int i = itemOffset; i < endOffset; i++)

 

{

RadSCR.Items.Add(

new RadComboBoxItem(data.Rows[i]["RELEASE_NAME"].ToString(), data.Rows[i]["RELEASE_NAME"].ToString()));

 

}

 

 

//e.Message = GetStatusMessage(endOffset, data.Rows.Count);

 

 

 

 

 

}


In this code above, I am getting RadRelease.SelectedItem as null.

Please let me know if I am doing anything wrong or any examples of related combobox with server side code.

thanks

Hello Shweta malpani,

Since Load-On-Demand feature fires at client-side when the user types in the input area or clicks on the drop-down toggle image (when there are no items in the RadComboBox) - using Load-On-Demand while implementing relation between RadComboBox controls only at server-side is not quite suitable.

I can suggest you remove the Load-On-Demand from the "RadSCR" RadComboBox control and databind this control within the SelectedIndexChanged event handler of "RadRelease" RadComboBox.
Please find more details at the sample page attached.

Best wishes,
