Questions on UI for ASP.NET AJAX Forum

Hi All,

In my application I use two Rad Grids and a RadScheduler.
when I double click the appointment in the scheduler, appointment edit form opens and at the same time first radgrid is populated, then if I click any row in the firstgrid, second grid will be populated.
Here the issue is when I go to the appointment edit form, if I directly make changes to the appointment and say update or cancel, it works fine.
But when I go to the appointment edit form, and just click the radgrid1, then radgrid2 will be displayed and at the same time a small yellow color triangle with the exclamation mark appears at the bottom of the page which says 'error on page' and after that if i make changes on the scheduler and say update or cancel, then nothing comes except the ajax loading symbol.
What could be the error?...is that anything related to Ajax?

Prometheus RadEditior Problems

Yesterday I downloaded the latest Prometheus controls and am trying to add the Prometheus RadEditor to one of my pages. I am having a few problems starting out.

My project is in VS2008 and was converted from an ASP.NET 1.1 project and I answered Yes to add ASP.NET 3.5 functionally during the conversion.

1. If in VS2008 and in design mode, when I click the Skin dropdown in the properties window, it crashes VS2008. I can add the skin name manually ok.

2. When I try to run my page in IE 7 I get a runtime error:
Error: '__doPostBack' is undefined. I can click on "No" to the debug question and then the page loads. In Firefox 2, I do not get the error.

3. If I click on the spell icon in RadEditor, I then get another runtime error:
Error: 'this._getPopupVisbilityController()' is null or not an object. I can click on "No" and the misspelled words are highlighted in yellow. But does not give me an option to correct or add to the dictionary, etc. And clicking on a highlighted word gives me the same error message. In Firefox 2 I do not get the error but also does not give any options to correct or add to the dictionary, etc.

Any help would be appreciated. A bit new to .NET development and know less about javascript. Thanks.

Interrogating RecurranceRule Column

Hi,

We are in the process of developing an appointment scheduling application using RadSchedular and we are very pleased with the results so far. We have build screens for the staff to maintain their own calendars and we using sql server as a back end.

We have to create a customer facing application where the customer will select the date and staff type they wish to make an booking with and will be presented with a list of appointments times for example they would enter the date 8 Jan 2008 and select the staff as “Mechanic” . They would then get a list of available appointment times to select from

10:00 Joe Bloggs

11:30 Joe Bloggs

10:30 James Jones

We do this by using a stored procedure to search for free slots in all the calendars for that StaffType . This is easy enough to do for regular appointments by using the Start and End Date however I would like to be able to do this for recurring appointments. Is there any SQL or .NET code available which would allow us to interrogate the RecurranceRule columns

I hope this make sense

Thanks

Joe

Accessing controls from Javascript

I am migrating my application from RadControls ASP.NET to Prometheus and have run into a problem with accessing my controls from javascript. For example, previously I used the following to access a combobox: var equipmentCombo = <%= rcbEquipment.ClientID %>; Since the switch, the object doesn't recognize telerik specific API calls (e.g. equipmentCombo.set_text("Loading..."); generates the Object doesn't support this method or property error). I've also tried using the $find("rcbEquipment") as I've seen in some examples, but that returns a null. Any ideas on what I missed in the migration?

Thanks

RadDateTimePicker Uses Resource Style Instead of Custom Style for TimePicker popup When EnableEmbeddedSkins="false"

For the RadDateTimePicker control, when the EnableEmbeddedSkins property is set to "false," and the Skin property is set to a valid value (e.g. a value that is defined in the appropriate css file) the TimePicker popup uses the embedded stylesheet instead of the custom one supplied by the developer. The DateInput and DatePicker popup, however, use the custom stylesheet. This causes the TimePicker to use the default skin instead of the one specified by the developer.

ImagesPaths Issue

I'm using version 4.3.2 of the MOSS RadEditor. I want to tell the RADEditor to point to the root of the site collection in the ImageManager, so I'm adding this to the ListConfigFile.xml (as I see in the online documention):
<property name="ImagesPaths">
<item> ~/</item>
</property>
This throws a Server Error. Other specific paths work fine. What's the trick to point it to the root?

Thanks,
M.
