GridTemplateColumn

[Ron]

Hi,

I'm using a radcombobox within a edititemtemplate and I would like to get the selected item on the client side but no matter which technique I use I always recieve "Object expected error" or "Microsoft JScript runtime error: radcombobox1 is undefined". I'm new
to rad controls I've spent all day on this , I must be doing something wrong. Can you help?

Thanks,

Hello Ron,

You can hook  OnClientLoad client-side event which occurs after the combobox has been fully initialized on the client-side. This event is helpful if you need to get the client-side instance of the combobox when it is embedded in other controls.
Here is a sample code:
aspx:

<telerik:GridTemplateColumn UniqueName="Template">

   <EditItemTemplate>

  <telerik:RadComboBox ID="RadCombo" runat="server" OnClientLoad="RadComboLoad">

              . . . . .

</telerik:RadComboBox>

   </EditItemTemplate>

</telerik:GridTemplateColumn>

Javascript:

<script type="text/javascript">
    var combo;
    function RadCombo(sender, args)
    {
       combo = sender;//save the RadCombo client object in a global variable
    }
</script>

Check out the following documentation for more on this.
OnClientLoad.
