[Solved] radwindow using asp button runat server

Hi,
How can I use radwindow with asp button runat server. At the moment, it closes my radwindow after the postback. Reason why I use asp button coz I will update first needed changes before it will show radwindow to show the preview. Using input type button works and it doesn't close my radwindow but then I cant update preview for my rad window for I need to save first some data to database before showing its preview..

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance,
RJ

Problem: content is stripped when saving to PublishingPageContent Field

Hi,

I'am trying to create a Publishing Page with HTML content inside.
The Web in what i try to create the page has both radEditor features(RadEditorFeatureRichHtml and RadEditorFeatureRichText) activated.

My code looks like that.

 PublishingPage currentPage = ......; 
SPFile spFile = currentPage.ListItem.File; 
SPListItem fileItem = spFile.Item; 
fileItem[FieldId.PublishingPageContent] = htmlContent; 
newFileItem.Update();

The Html content starts for example with that:

 <table class ="testClass" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" border="0">

After the update() method is called the saved output looks like

    
            <table class =testClass cellspacing=0 cellpadding=0 border=0>

Also comments like

<!-- comment -->

are stripped.

I've discovered serveral ways to get the content into the field. I even put the content through filestream into the
field but sharepoint always strips the characters.I also tried to Encode the content but this also not worked.

If I call the RadEditor through the graphical interface and set the EditModes to HTML and then paste my html code it works fine and the content is saved in the correct form. I thought if your editor is able to save html content without stripping, there must be a way to save it through the api.

Please tell me if there are any possibilities to save the content through the API.

Thanks and greets Torsten

Low bandwidth RadGrid

I need to build an editable grid that allows some segment of the user-base the ability to use the app via a low bandwidth. I went down the road of binding everything server-side, then allowing updates via a webservice (NOT using the RadGrid editforms, but rather using my own hidden div). The problem I ran into is - how do I "insert" an item into the grid if I'm not using the inherent editform. Is there a better way?

What architecture / best practices can I use to minimize postbacks and grid rebinds (it's not obvious to me at this point, so any insight would be greatly appreciated).

[Solved] blank buttons appear where images should be

Using the latest release of RadGrid for ASP.Net AJAX and Visual Studio 2008 SP1

In design view, I can see images for control buttons like filter and paging.

However, at run-time those images change to blank HTML buttons.

They still work, but it's just ugly.

Any idea what I'm doing wrong?

Context menu won't display

I have an asp.net page that has a Treeview control. The Treeviwe control consists of "Controller" nodes and "Reader" nodes. The reader nodes are children to the Controller nodes. So fully expanded, my control should look somethign like this:

++ Root Node
    -- Controller Node
        -- Reader Node
        -- Reader Node
    -- Controller Node

This Treeview control is built entirely from the page's code-behind.  I have several context menus based on the type of node. The problem is that when I right-click, the context menu wil only display on the "root node". I cannot get a context menu to display on any other node.

I have alternately set the EnableContextMenu on the nodes without any effect. I have included a simplified version of the source code that creates the nodes.

So, any help would be greatly appreciated. Here's the code:

    
                        try 
        
                        {  
        
                            tvStatus.Nodes.Clear();  
        
                            RadTreeNode Root = new RadTreeNode(Resources.Globals.MenuCommandStatus);  
        
                            Root.EnableContextMenu = false; // I DON'T want a context menu on the root node  
        
                                            // controller menu  
        
                            RadTreeViewContextMenu mnuController = new RadTreeViewContextMenu();  
        
                            mnuController.ID = "mnuController" + DateTime.UtcNow.ToString();  
        
                            mnuController.SkinID = "WebBlue";  
        
                            RadMenuItem miControllerInit = new RadMenuItem(Resources.Globals.MenuInitialize);

show filter and delete icons on grid

Hi,
When I look at the live demos solution that comes with the Telerik Rad Grid, there are icons for delete, filter, refresh, sort, and add column. However when I create my grid I can see the filter icons in design mode, but they are not there in runtime.

How can I get these icons to display without having to add an icon for each individual column as this is not done in the demo

Regards

Robert

How Do I ... SetFocus to a control w/i a Web User Control from C# Code-Behind

Ah, this used to be sooooooooooo easy ... place a RadAjaxManager in the control then use the SetFocus() method to move the focus around the web user controls as needed.

Now that only one RadAjaxManager can exist per .aspx page, this has become rather a nightmare. For me at least. And I've searched and searched and none of the solutions mentioned have worked for me.

I'm hopeful though. :)

Scenario: I've a default.aspx page. Kinda like a master page I suppose, but it is not a "Master Page". When I call this default.aspx page, I pass in a menuId value via the query string. Based on that menuId value, I load a particular web user control ascx into a placeholder on that .aspx. The .aspx page contains the RadScriptManager and the RadAjaxManager.
Constraint: I have to be able to set the focus at will via the C# code behind, from within any given loaded web user control, after any page load, post back, or ajax request. (Oh and please do not refer me to client-side examples; I've seen some here, and just can't manage to do the translation from client-side to code-behind from w/i a web user control; I need a translator :0) )
Would Like: a reusable solution as I do not want to have to recreate a chunk of code or javascript on each user control in general principle not to mention (though I am mentioning it aren't I?) to accomplish what used to be an oh so very simple one-liner.

Thanks in advance for any suggestions!
