Hi everyone,

I'm hoping someone may know how to do this.

I took the jewelry sample from the demo site and customized it slightly so that I could have it work with my demo. Nothing major at all, just size and placement.

But I was wondering about, depending on a value within the XML, if I could switch the side of the screen that it appears on?

So I set up the ticker to display on both the left and right side, no issues, they both behave exactly the same.

What I was hoping is that I could set the visible property for the ticker based on an entry in the xml data file.

Here's what I was hoping to do:

<

telerik:RadTicker ID="RadTicker2" runat="server">

<Items>

<telerik:RadTickerItem Text='<%# XPath("Title")%>' Visible='<%# XPath("LeftSideVisible")%>></telerik:RadTickerItem>

</Items>

</telerik:RadTicker>

And my xml entry looks like this:

<

NewsItem>

<

Title>

This option shows what it would look like if the left of the image was blank (for demo purposes)

</

Title>

<

Image>Images/Testing/Splash-Test-1.jpg</Image>

<

ItemName>Images/Testing/Splash-Test-1.jpg</ItemName>

<

URLIcon>Images/Testing/demo-info.png</URLIcon>

<

URL>~/AboutUs.aspx</URL>

<

bool name="LeftSideVisible">true</bool>

<

bool name="RightSideVisible">false</bool>

</

NewsItem>

But when I do this I a type mismatch thrown by the ticker.

Any ideas as to how I can do this? I'm open to any suggestions :)

Thanks,
Jon

Automatically add row after last row tab in RadGrid?

I would like to have the grid automatically add a new row when the user presses "Tab" from the last cell in the last row of the grid.

For example:
1. Focus is given to the top-left cell in the grid.
2. Grid is displayed with deafult empty rows(e.g. 5 ) and user can add new data in textbox / dropdown
3. User can navigave row cells but pressing "tab"
4. after last row last cell "Tab" create new emapy row in grid.
5. also allow to create row from "Add row button".
6. at the end user can save all row data
(Featue like word table after end tab create new row...)

Any ideas on how to make the grid keep adding more rows automatically?

RadMenu Item not being displayed after scrolling

Hi,
i have a RAD Menu control implemented on my ASP.Net web app. the control is being populated dynamically from database and i have a scrolling buttons on each side of the control (given width to the control in order to get the scrolling buttons). the problem i am facing is that when i scroll to the near end of the menu and click on any item, the menu defaults to the first item and i cannot see the selected item on the page. i have to again scroll to the end to see what the item was selected.
is there a way i can set the selected item on the menu visible and stop the control from scrolling it to the beginning?

Uploaded files being renamed to cryptic names

I'm investigating migrating from the RadUpload control to the RadAsyncUpload tool and am seeing some weird behaviors.

I have a RadAsyncUpload control on my web page and I've customized the TemporaryFolder in the Page_Load. I've also set up the OnFileUploaded method to do some custom work because we want to store a record of the file in our EFile database.

When I do a postback ... the OnFileUploaded method fires and I can see that the e.File.GetName() method returns the correct name of my file but if I'm monitoring the TemporaryFolder -- the file name appears as names like "25j2deve.qc3" and "y20yq3q3.nz1". So then when my code goes to move the file from the TemporaryFolder to our own internal EFolder -- I keep getting the file does not exist because I'm trying to move it based on a file name from the e.File.GetName() method.

I'm also confused by the documentation/tutorial because it uses a function to set the e.IsValid. The function is called CheckUploadedFileValidity().

Where is that function? Is that something I need to write on my own? Is that built into a Telerik library somewhere?

Do I need to be using the .SaveAs() method here like we did in the RadUpload tool? All I want to do is get a file into the temp folder and then I'll move it to the final location from there.

e.IsValid = !CheckUploadedFileValidity();

[Solved] Setting RadGrid Border CSS For Specfic Columns

http://www.telerik.com/community/forums/aspnet-ajax/ajax/showing-border-for-radgrid-columns.aspx

Currently I want to use the WebBlue skin on my grid, but instead of having alternating colors I want a pure white grid with a few vertical black lines about every four columns.

The given example I found allows me to override the entire grid to make it all white, but when I try to set the CssClass in the ItemStyle of the GridBoundColumn nothing happens. I look in the source of the page, and it is there (on the <td cssclass="LeftBorderBlack">), the link for the css is there. I can't figure out for the life of me how to get some columns to have a border style on the left side, and all others to have none.

Any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks :)

Google Like filtering+ cascaded filter+ multi select filter

So I am trying to build a cascaded multiselect google like filtering. So far I have been successful in getting google like cascaded filter to work.

Also I have to set a default filter value which is working fine except that I also store the filter information in my session.

So now the issue is with the multi select. So I do get the multi select by enabling checkboxes on the Combo boxes in custom template.

End Class

Also I have set EnableLinqExpressions = false in my code. So when I select multiple values from the dropdown, I have 2 issues
1) Sometimes the filter test says "All items selected" or "2 items selected" instead of the actual filter values
2) Since the EnableLinqExpressions=false the query is like this where xyz like "value1,value2" So should I write a routine to break these values separted by commas as individual filter values with an OR statement.

I also tried by enableing the linq expressions and then the query is like this where xyz.contains("value1,value2"). I both cases results do not return anything.

Please help .

Also was trying the dynamic Linq library. It had it own share of issues. I could not get it to work either.
