ASP.NET server control width

[Rob]

Another newbie question that has always perplexed me in terms of server controls. Width & height can be set both as a style or as a property:

<telerik:RadMenu ID="RadMenu1" Runat="server" style="Height=30px;" Height="50px">

What is the difference between the two and which should one actually use?

Thanks, Rob.

Hello Rob,

If you want to use the control's API to set its height (handling the proper height for all its nested elements), you should have the following configuration:

<telerik:RadMenu ID="RadMenu1" Runat="server" Height="50px"></telerik:RadMenu>

Please note, that style="Height=30px;" is invalid configuration and it is highly recommended to avoid it.
