[Solved] Assigning a Combobox to a Custom Attribute

Hello,

Using Q3 2009 & IE7, I have the following scheduler code (advanced template code taken from here):

    
            <telerik:RadScheduler ID="RadScheduler1" runat="server" OnAppointmentDelete="RadScheduler1_AppointmentDelete" 
        
                            OnAppointmentInsert="RadScheduler1_AppointmentInsert" OnAppointmentUpdate="RadScheduler1_AppointmentUpdate"

Here is the codebehind:

                    { 
        
                        string test = e.Appointment.Attributes["avail_type"]; 
        
                    } 
        
                    protected void RadScheduler1_AppointmentUpdate(object sender, AppointmentUpdateEventArgs e) 
        
                    { 
        
                    } 
        
                    protected void RadScheduler1_AppointmentDelete(object sender, SchedulerCancelEventArgs e) 
        
                    { 
        
                    } 
        
            protected void AvailComboBox_DataBinding(object sender, EventArgs e) 
        
                    { 
        
                        (sender as RadComboBox).Items.Clear(); 
        
                        DataTable table = new DataTable(); 
        
                        table.Columns.Add("color"); 
        
                        table.Columns.Add("avail_name"); 
        
                        table.Columns.Add("avail_type"); 
        
                        DataRow row = table.NewRow(); 
        
                        row["color"] = "Green"; 
        
                        row["avail_name"] = "Available"; 
        
                        row["avail_type"] = "AVAIL"; 
        
                        table.Rows.Add(row); 
        
                        row = table.NewRow(); 
        
                        row["color"] = "Red"; 
        
                        row["avail_name"] = "Not Available"; 
        
                        row["avail_type"] = "NOTAVAIL"; 
        
                        table.Rows.Add(row); 
        
                        DataView AvailabilityView = table.DefaultView; 
        
                        (sender as RadComboBox).DataSource = AvailabilityView; 
        
                        (sender as RadComboBox).SelectedIndex = 0; 
        
                    }

In particular, I am having great trouble with the combobox (on appointment insert); I simply cannot get the value of it. The string 'test' always returns null. If I try using DataValueField='<%# Bind("avail_type") %>' in the combobox, the string becomes empty instead. I simply wish to get the selected value of the combobox as a custom appointment attribute so that it may be stored in the database. Any help will be appreciated.

Thank you

Event On Row Select

Is there a way to fire a server-side event based on a row select of a rad-grid? Basically, I want to take a column value (that is the key value for the dataset) and use that to re-direct the page to a different page to view more information based on that key value. Right now, I can select a row, and then have a button that does the same thing based on the selected row, but I want to eliminate a click. Also, is there any way to make it only fire on a double-click event?

[Solved] Find And Replace Shortcut interference

I have the tool FindAndReplace with the shortcut CTRL+F, but it is interfering with the browser ctrl+F, so both find dialog are appearing. I saw that the behavior can be reproduce in the telerik demos(http://demos.telerik.com/aspnet-ajax/editor/examples/default/defaultcs.aspx) using IE but seems to work fine in firefox. It is not a major bug, but if you have any suggestion on how to override this specific browser shortcut.

Thanks,
Sébastien

[Solved] Blank Item Shows up on First Drop Down

The first time I drop down the RadComboBox there is a blank line at the bottom (empty item). In other words the length of the drop down is off. Then the second time I drop it down it is correct and there is no blank item at bottom.

<body>

<asp:ScriptManager ID="ScriptManager1" runat="server">

</asp:ScriptManager>

<div>

<telerik:RadComboBox ID="cmbQueryBy" runat="server" Width="98px">

<Items>

<telerik:RadComboBoxItem runat="server" Text="Today" Value="1" />

<telerik:RadComboBoxItem runat="server" Text="Tomorrow" Value="2" />

<telerik:RadComboBoxItem runat="server" Text="Next 7 Days" Value="3" />

<telerik:RadComboBoxItem runat="server" Text="Specific Date" Value="4" />

</Items>

</telerik:RadComboBox>

</div>

[Solved] Accessing a radcombobox on the windows.onloadHi I am trying to access the dropdown from javascript event window.onload

I am trying to access the radcombobox on my page from javascript, when the page is finished loading, using javascript and when I make a reference to the control using the following:

var radDdlGraphics = $find('radDdlGraphics');

It comes back as being null, which is weird, because I try to change a value within dropdown on the page itself. It fires the onchange event and references the object the same way.

Any ideas on why this doesn't work in the window.onload and yet works when the page is loaded, I would have thought they work the same way, but that is not the case.

MOssRadEditor unable to set custom FileBrowserContentProviderTypeName

Hi.
I'm trying to set FileBrowserContentProviderTypeName for every one mossradeditor on web application.
I wrote SPCustomContentProviderclass inherited from FileBrowserContentProvider and edited ConfigFile.xml.
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>

<configuration>
<property name="AllowThumbGeneration">True</property>
<property name="ConvertToXhtml">True</property>
<property name="EnableDocking">False</property>
<property name="ShowHtmlMode">True</property>
<property name="ShowPreviewMode">False</property>
<property name="ToolbarMode">ShowOnFocus</property>
<property name="ToolsWidth">680px</property>
<property name="Skin">Telerik</property>
<property name="ToolsFile">/_layouts/TelerikTools.xml</property>
<property name="FileBrowserContentProviderTypeName">GenericUtils.SPCustomContentProvider, GenericUtils, Version=1.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=9f4da00116c38ec5</property>
<property name="ExternalDialogsPath">/_layouts/editordialogs</property>
</configuration>

But radeditor still use standard sharepoint provider. How can I change default provider?

P.S. I'm trying to add possibility for user to change site collections in image manager. I know about ImagesPaths but they allowing only access to current site's or root site's folders.

DateTime mask control with calender

Hello,

Is there any equivalent control to one shown below for date time input?
http://www.asp.net/ajax/ajaxcontroltoolkit/Samples/MaskedEdit/MaskedEdit.aspx
It will be great if we can have calender icon along with it.

I tried input manager but it doesnt support the mask.

My project currently is in beta stage and i have lots of user controls. Now when the user controls are added to page the html size increases due to large number of datetime input controls. I have to remove all telerik datetime input controls because it emits lots of html and javascript blocks that causes large page size. I do use sharedcalender and sharedtimeview but still the performance is not good.

While finding alternatives i found above link but i dont want to have ajax library in the project just to use one control.

Any help or sample project is appreciate.

To summarise
1) Want to get rid of telerik datetime input and calender and timeview controls.
2) find any light weight calender that just have a client side javascript library
3) Find light weight date time masked validator control with possible calender icon to support opening of calender incase user wants to.

regards
mac
