AdvancedEdit/InsertForm

[Justin Furniss]

Hello,

  I have been using the RadScheduler AdvancedEditForm and AdvancedInsertForm for the past  8 months.  It has become increasingly difficult to work within the confines of the templates as my needs have started to become more complicated. Is there a way to Implement the AdvancedInsertForm and AdvancedEditForm in a ModalWindow that will alllow for full AJAX interaction? Currently it appears that I have to force all my ajax requests within the template through client side AjaxManagerRequests due to scoping issues when using the templates. Thanks for your time.

Hello Justin,

Could you please be more specific? What do you mean by "full AJAX interaction"? What problems do you experience if you ajaxify RadScheduler using RadAjaxManager in the usual way.
 
Sending us some code could be really helpful. If you have a more complicated scenario, you can open a support ticket and send us a working demo sample.


All the best,

Peter,

Looking back I can see that my last email was a bit on the unclear side. 

The application that we have been building makes use of your scheduling component pretty heavily in that we:

• Use your scheduling algorithms which we push into our database
• Use the edit/create/delete functionality

We have been using your "advanced templates" for creation/editing of the appointments in our application since we have a lot of advanced functionality that integrates with the rest of our application. 

Really, what we need is a way to create new scheduled appointments and edit current ones on a separate page (i.e. a rad modal window).  When working in the advanced template for the scheduler some basic ASP.NET functionality gets hard to work with.  For instance:

• A control inside the template is not accessible from the server side code (unless it is being passed back as an argument from an event)
• AJAX starts to go haywire the more controls we put in the advanced template (i.e. Updating controls within the template using Ajax manager causes a full post back)

The ideal solution for our problems would be to have access to events/functionality of the radscheduler without actually being in one of its advanced templates.  I have looked for this sort of functionality in your documentation but have not been able to find it.

Thanks for your help

Hello Justin,

Have you seen the External Edit in RadDock online example? Is this something which you can use for this case?
