Possibly.

When I started work on my current project, there were some nasty bits of code. One of them was a banner used on the page. It was decided to replace it with something more in keeping with style of the RadControls and something that was, ideally, skinnable.

I decided to have a bit of a go at cheating. I liked the layout of the title bar of the RadWindow and it fitted our requirements very nicely. So, I recreated the RadWindow title bar from the rendered HTML and came up with my PageBanner control. Clipboard1.gif shows what it looks like (using the Hay skin).

The code looks like this ...

<asp:Panel ID="Panel1"

runat="server" CssClass="RadWindow">

<asp:Table ID="Table1"

runat="server"

Width="100%"

CellPadding="0"

CellSpacing="0">

<asp:TableRow runat="server"

CssClass="rwTitleRow">

<asp:TableCell runat="server"

ID="Cell1"

CssClass="rwTitlebar"

Width="10px">

</asp:TableCell>

<asp:TableCell runat="server"

ID="Cell2"

CssClass="rwTitlebar">

<asp:Panel ID="Panel2"

runat="server"

CssClass="rwTopResize">

</asp:Panel>

<asp:Table ID="Table2"

runat="server"

CssClass="rwTitlebarControls"

CellPadding="0"

CellSpacing="0"

HorizontalAlign="Left">

<asp:TableRow runat="server"

ID="InnerRow1">

<asp:TableCell runat="server"

ID="InnerCell1"

Width="16px"

Style="vertical-align: top !important;">

<asp:HyperLink ID="HyperLink1"

</asp:TableCell>

</asp:TableCell>

<asp:TableCell runat="server"

RadSkinManager1.PersistenceMode = RadSkinManager1.ShowChooser ? RadSkinManagerPersistenceMode.Cookie : RadSkinManagerPersistenceMode.Session;

}

I have to say that I'm rather pleased with it in all but one regard; It looks pants in IE7 and IE8 Compatibility Mode. Clipboard2.gif shows it using the same skin in IE8 Compatibility Mode.

Clearly there is something different about how IE7 works and I've tried to figure out what exactly is going on, but to no avail. I did think that there might be an IE7 hack in the CSS but if there is, I can't find it.

Can anyone offer any suggestions?

Export to CSV only gives MasterTableView data

I have an instance of a RadGrid on my page with hierarchical data. Exporting to Excel or Word works wonderfully. However, exporting to CSV results in only the MasterTableView data being exported. Any clues?

If anyone is thinking of suggesting I expand all of my MasterTableView items by default, please don't. As I said, it works for Excel and Word, so this is not the problem.

Thank you in advance!

Page Number etc, css

Hi
I have my grids set to numericpages and i am hiding the pagesize drop-down etc.

On the left is the pages.. 1,2,3...
and on the far right is "Page 1 of 2, items 1 to 200 of 202"

I'm sure this is a simple question, but... How do i align the "Page 1 of 2,..." after the pages, on the left ?
Also, is it possible to change the word "items" ?

Many Thanks

RadAsyncUpload not Asyncronous

We are Building a Simple Widget
The widget has a designer. The designer has a RadAsyncUpload control. The upload control has a handler for the OnClientFileUploaded event. The event fires when the files selection is complete. The files doesn't upload until I click a button on the designer. The file is only uploaded after the pages is refreshed(posted back).

Of course the button doesn't post back asynchronously.

Prevent Row Click

Hi

How can I prevent a user to single click on a row (thereby changing the selected row). I only want the user to be able to double click on a row to change selected row.

I also want to programatically change row (I'm already doing this using set_selected(true);)

I have also changed the CSS for selected row (.rlbSelected) to show a background picture.

I've tried using some javascript to intercept SelectionIndexChanging and set_cancel(true); to prevent single click, but it still changes the focused row thereby causing other problems.

Override HeaderStyle Color

I build my grid in code

RadGrid RadGrid1 = new RadGrid();

RadGrid1.ID = "RadGrid1";

RadGrid1.DataSourceID = "SqlDataSource1";

RadGrid1.MasterTableView.DataKeyNames = new string[] { "Jobnumber" };

RadGrid1.Skin = "WebBlue";

//RadGrid1.EnableEmbeddedSkins = false;

RadGrid1.Width = Unit.Percentage(100);

RadGrid1.PageSize = 15;

RadGrid1.AllowPaging = true;

RadGrid1.PagerStyle.Mode = GridPagerMode.NextPrev;

RadGrid1.AllowSorting = true;

RadGrid1.AllowFilteringByColumn = false;

RadGrid1.AutoGenerateColumns = false;

RadGrid1.ClientSettings.Resizing.AllowColumnResize = true;

RadGrid1.ClientSettings.Resizing.ResizeGridOnColumnResize = true;

RadGrid1.ClientSettings.Resizing.ClipCellContentOnResize = true;

RadGrid1.ClientSettings.AllowColumnsReorder = true;

RadGrid1.ClientSettings.ColumnsReorderMethod = GridClientSettings.GridColumnsReorderMethod.Reorder;

RadGrid1.GridLines = GridLines.Both;

RadGrid1.ItemCommand += new GridCommandEventHandler(RadGrid1_ItemCommand);

RadGrid1.PageIndexChanged += new GridPageChangedEventHandler(RadGrid1_PageIndexChanged);

//Add columns

GridButtonColumn buttonColumn = new GridButtonColumn();

buttonColumn.HeaderText = "Select File";

buttonColumn.CommandName = "Select";

buttonColumn.ButtonType = GridButtonColumnType.PushButton;

buttonColumn.Text = "Go";

buttonColumn.ItemStyle.HorizontalAlign = HorizontalAlign.Center;

buttonColumn.HeaderStyle.Width = 50;

buttonColumn.HeaderStyle.BackColor = System.Drawing.Color.Crimson;

buttonColumn.HeaderStyle.BorderColor = System.Drawing.Color.Crimson;

RadGrid1.Columns.Add(buttonColumn);

I use the embedded Skin "WebBlue" However when I try to override the headerstyle color of the first column only half the header is changed.

So when I select the record the dropdownlist has not been populated yet. How can I populate the dropdownlist so I can set the select value.
