Accessing Browserwindow(Parent Page) Control events from child RadWindow

[Noor hussain]

Hi,

Please let me know how to access the BrowserWindow (Parent Page ) control events from child RadWindow.
I have a RadMenu with two child menuitems and a radwindowmanager on my ParentPage.  On Click of first child radmenuitem I am opening a radwindow using the ParentPage RadWindowManager. Now in this Child radwindow I have a button, On this button click i want to simulate the RadMenuItem click event for the second child radmenuitem.  I m using the below javascript code to get the reference of the RadMenu of the Browser

var oRadMenu = GetRadWindow().BrowserWindow.document.getElementById('RadMenu1');
var item = oRadMenu.findItemByText(text);

Window (Parent Page), but I am unable to get the particular child radmenuitem. So that I can execute its click event. Any help is appreciated.

Regards,
Noor Hussain

Hello Noor,

getElementById will return the HTML element while you need the control's object, that is usually accessed by $find(). Note however that because the menu is in the other page, it is best to create a function there that would "click" on the corresponding node. Once you have such function in the main page, you can simply call it from within the content one by using GetRadWindow().BrowserWindow.fnName().

For convenience I attached a small sample that illustrates the recommended approach - I hope this helps.
