Access RadButton inside ItemTemplate

[Steven]

I'm working with the RadToolBar, encapsulated within a RadPane, encapsulated within a RadSplitter;

The goal is to programmatically access a RadButton, which is encapsulated within an <ItemTemplate> section of a RadToolBarButton;

The code section is displayed below;

Thanks in advance for any insight;

<telerik:RadSplitter>

<telerik:RadPane ID="RadPane5" Runat="server" Width="100%" BackColor="White" BorderColor="Transparent" BorderWidth="0px" Visible="false" Scrolling="None">

     <telerik:RadToolBar ID="RadToolBar3" Runat="server" Height="26px" Width="100%" BackColor="Transparent" BorderColor="Transparent" Visible="false" onbuttonclick="RadToolBar3_ButtonClick">
                    <Items>
                        <telerik:RadToolBarButton runat="server" Value="TemplateTextBox" CommandName="rcbCustomers" >
                           <ItemTemplate>
                                <asp:Label Text="Customer" runat="server" ></asp:Label>
                                <telerik:RadComboBox ID="rcbCustomer" runat="server" Text="Customers"></telerik:RadComboBox>
                                <asp:Label ID="Group" Text="Group" runat="server" ></asp:Label>
                                <telerik:RadComboBox ID="rcbGroup" runat="server" Text="Group"></telerik:RadComboBox>
                                <asp:Label ID="Provider" Text="Provider" runat="server" ></asp:Label>
                                <telerik:RadComboBox ID="rcbProvider" runat="server" Text="Provider"></telerik:RadComboBox>
                                 <asp:Label ID="Location" Text="Location" runat="server" ></asp:Label>
                                <telerik:RadComboBox ID="rcbLocation" runat="server" Text="Location"></telerik:RadComboBox>

                                <telerik:RadButton ID="rbViewReport" runat="server" Text="View Report" CommandName="View Report"></telerik:RadButton>

                           </ItemTemplate>
                        </telerik:RadToolBarButton>
                        <telerik:RadToolBarButton runat="server">
                        </telerik:RadToolBarButton>
                   </Items>
                </telerik:RadToolBar>

             <rsweb:ReportViewer ID="ReportViewer7" runat="server" Width="100%" PageCountMode="Actual" Visible="false" ></rsweb:ReportViewer>

        </telerik:RadPane>

</telerik:RadSplitter>

Hello Steven,

Try the following code.
C#:

protected void RadToolBar3_ButtonClick(object sender, Telerik.Web.UI.RadToolBarEventArgs e)
{
  RadToolBarItem item = RadToolBar3.FindItemByValue("TemplateTextBox");
  RadButton btn = (RadButton)item.FindControl("rbViewReport");
}

Update:

RadButton rbViewReport = (RadButton)RadToolBar3.FindItemByValue("TemplateTextBox").FindControl("rbViewReport");

Utilizing the above code snippet in the Page_Load event, a breakpoint is hit in the C# - based on a click of the RadButton;

The next question is to how best to determine programmatically, if the Page_Load event takes place as a result of the RadButton being clicked;   


Thanks for the reply, and I implemented the code suggestion;

I set a breakpoint within the C# for the RadToolBar3_ButtonClick, and ran the application;

However, if I run the application in debug mode, the breakpoint is not hit;

Might this be related to the fact that the RadToolBar3 is nested within a RadPane, which is nested within a RadSplitter?

Best regards

Hello Steven,

Try setting AutoPostBack as true for the RadToolBar.
