ASP.NET AJAX Previews and MVC

Hello,

I was wondering if you have tried out your controls with ASP.NET AJAX preview 6, and if so, what is your experience with it? What scripts (since they broke the scripts out) has your controls needed (outside of minimum MicrosoftAjaxCore and MicrosoftAjaxComponentModel)? I am trying to refrain from using MicrosoftAjax due to the size...

Thanks.

RadAjaxManager synchronous ajaxRequest

Hello,

I have a RadAjaxManager that updates 5 RadGrids on one page. When I call a Rebind ajaxRequest it rebinds each of the 5 RadGrids. The problem I'm having is determining when all 5 grid's have finished rebinding and refreshing on the screen before my javascript code continues.

The RadAjaxManager's onResponseEnd gets called several times, I believe once for each RadGrid that has a change when it's rebound.

How can I call ajaxRequest and have it run synchronously so that my javascript code will not continue until each RadGrid has been refreshed?

Thanks,

Chris

Does anyone have a snippet?

Thanks,

[Solved] Extracting primary key value for parent item in hierarchy on Insert with User Control EditForm and MasterPage

Here's my setup: I have a MasterPage that has a webform with a RadGrid in it. That RadGrid has one nested table. I'm trying to insert a new item into that nested table using a WebUserControl (ascx) page as the EditForm for the nested Grid.

I've read the help at: http://www.telerik.com/help/aspnet-ajax/grdextractprimarykeyforparentiteminhierarchyonupdateinsert.html

My grid and nested grid are setup pretty much identically to what is there, except that I'm using a MasterPage and usercontrol for the form and I have a dataobject for the datasource.

When updating the nested grid with the usercontrol, the world is a wonderful place and things work just fine. However, when that same form is used for inserting, the binding values go away. In the customers and orders example, the customerID is not set to the default for the primarykey of the parent item.

I tried the code from http://www.telerik.com/help/aspnet-ajax/grdcustomeditforms.html for accessing the grid edited item from the usercontrol.

    
            GridEditableItem editedItem = this.Parent.NamingContainer;

It generates a compiler error (cannot implictly convert system.web.ui.control to telerik.web.ui.GridEditableItem. An explict conversion exists). When I explictly cast, editedItem.KeyValues is null. I think this may be something funky with the masterpages.

If parentID is an int32, I can use the following code in the main aspx code behind to get the appropriate value:

    
            public int parentID {get; set;}

            if (e.CommandName == RadGrid.InitInsertCommandName)  
        
                        {  
        
                            if (e.Item.OwnerTableView.DataSourceID == "OrderLookup")  
        
                            {  
        
                                GridDataItem parentItem = (GridDataItem)(e.Item.OwnerTableView.ParentItem);  
        
                                if (parentItem != null)  
        
                                {  
        
                                    parentID = (Convert.ToInt32((parentItem.OwnerTableView.DataKeyValues[parentItem.ItemIndex]["CustomerID"])));  
        
                                }  
        
                            }  
        
                        }

But I can not for the life of me access that value from the ascx page. I'm also assuming this is because of some masterpage stuff that I haven't figured out yet.

So, How can I reference that DataKeyValue from the WebUserControl for an insert function? I need to set the default value for the customerID. What is the best way to accomplish this?

Unnecessary scrollbar

Hi,

In IE8 I get an unnecessary scrollbar in a RadListBox.

This does not happen when I use the compatible mode.
The RadListBox is in a RadPane of a RadSplitter. It is the only control in the RadPane and the height and width of the RadListBox are both set to 100%. (The RadPane is in my case typically around 300px high and 200px wide.)
When I inspect the rendered html with the developer tool and I change the the display style of the outermost div of the RadListBox control from 'inline-block' to 'block', the unnecessary scrollbar disappears, but I'm sure I shouldn't solve this problem by directly changing the rendered style. (Therefor I haven't tested if changing the style like this doesn't mess up things for the compatibility mode, so it might very well not be a good solution at all.)
I have looked for a property of which I would think it influences the style such that the problem is solved, but couldn't find one.

How do I get rid of the unnecessary scrollbar?

Regards,

Mink

Preventing UserControl PopUp EditForm from Closing on button click of additional buttons

I have a PopUp Edit Form (via Custom UserControl) where part of the UI design is calling for us to show a 'search' window - i.e. a Customer Lookup/Search Screen...

We have a visual control and place a button next to it and wire-up a simple server-side OnClick handler. Even with the code-behind doing absolutely nothign other than a Debug.WriteLine() statement... The EditForm immediately closes...

How do I utlize additional 'buttons' on the form without it closing?

What we want the EditForm to really do when this button click occurs is to hide one DIV and show another where we can embed these type of 'search' mechanisms... And upon the search being completed/cancelled hide the DIV and restore the real EditForm div...

The other option being entertained is to show a RadWindow to host these search mechanism but the client preference is to avoid having more than 1 layer of popups going on... Additionally, I'm finding very little information on using RadWindow from code-behind - it seems to really be client-side focused... If we go with this route, I would like to use the RadWindow to show a UserControl rather than a Page - which doesn't sounds like an option from the little research I've done so far...

When to react to changes in a RadDock-structure?

I'm making a dynamic RadDock structure as per this post. I want to react to changes in the RadDocks (add, move, close). Where is the best place to do this? From the RadDock Lifecycle I would gather that the best place to do this is in the RadDockLayout.SaveDockLayout-event, but I'm not sure.

Where is the best place to react to changes?
