Questions on UI for ASP.NET AJAX Forum

I am having an issue which I would guess has to do with initialization of the editor in a hidden panel. This issue occurs without fail in Chrome, intermittently in FireFox3, and not at all in IE7.

What happens is if a Rad Editor is on a page where it is loaded and displayed on first hit to a page, it works fine. However, if the editor is in an AJAX panel which is displayed later on (i.e., after a user clicks a link to display the editor), the first time it is displayed the toolbars show up, but the editor area is very tiny and cannot be clicked in, typed in, or otherwise used. If I click the same link to redisplay that same AJAX panel, the editor shows up and functions just dandy.

We used a previous editor which exhibited the same type of behavior and it was related to the Javascript initialization of the control, so that's the only reason I suggest an initialization issue.

Any ideas?

[Solved] IFRAME causing Section 508 compliance failure

Hello,

As mentioned in this post, one of our customers is running the app through HiSoftware's AccVerify tool to ensure the application is Section 508 compliant.

As you may have hoped, we are using many of your controls.

So now I'm trying to fix our use of the RadEditor. In production, we are using the ASP.NET version, not the Prometheus version, which is filled with non-compliant html (missing alt tags on images and elements). So I'm looking into swapping it out and using the Prometheus version.

Taking a vanilla page, dropping the Prometheus RadEditor onto the page, gives only 1 error - our friend the empty iframe tag, which is not allowed:

Rule: 1.1.6 - All IFRAME elements are required to contain element content.

Failure - IFRAME Element at Line: 182, Column: 153

 182: <TD class=rade_contentCell id=RadEditor1Center style="HEIGHT: 100%" vAlign=top><TEXTAREA id=RadEditor1 style="DISPLAY: none" name=RadEditor1></TEXTAREA><IFRAME style="PADDING-RIGHT: 0px; PADDING-LEFT: 0px; PADDING-BOTTOM: 0px; MARGIN: 0px; WIDTH: 100%; PADDING-TOP: 0px; HEIGHT: 100%" frameBorder=0></IFRAME></TD></TR>

Here's the aspx markup:

    
            <%@ Page Language="C#" AutoEventWireup="true" CodeBehind="RadEditorInputIframePrometheus.aspx.cs" Inherits="WebApplication.RadEditorInputIframePrometheus" %> 
        
            <%@ Register assembly="Telerik.Web.UI, Version=2007.3.1314.35, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=121fae78165ba3d4" namespace="Telerik.Web.UI" tagprefix="telerik" %>

            <head runat="server"> 
        
                <title>RadEditor Prometheus INPUT and IFRAME 508 Compliance Issues</title> 
        
            </head> 
        
            <body> 
        
                <form id="form1" runat="server"> 
        
                    <asp:ScriptManager ID="ScriptManager1" runat="server"> 
        
                    </asp:ScriptManager> 
        
                    <h1>RadEditor Prometheus INPUT and IFRAME 508 Compliance Issues</h1> 
        
                    <telerik:RadEditor ID="RadEditor1" Runat="server"> 
        
                    </telerik:RadEditor> 
        
                </form> 
        
            </body> 
        
            </html>

I tried using the javascript posted in the other thread, that did not work.

How do I fix this? Or can you get this fixed in your controls?

Thanks,
Rick

Display Datatable column in NestedViewTemplate

I'm using the Telerik:RadGrid to display a list of courses. The course information is all in a DataTable bound to the grid.

Most of the data is small and works well as a list, except for the course description which is a large paragraph. I would like the description to be display for each row in the nestedviewtemplate so that it shows up as a full row when the master row is clicked.

I've seen the hierachy template example for the grid control, but that is based on multiple DataTables. All of the information I have is in a single table.

Is there a simple way with the grid to access the DataField for the description from inside the NestedViewTemplate?

    
            DataTable CourseTable = new DataTable("CourseTable"); 
        
                        CourseTable.Columns.Add(new DataColumn("Course", Type.GetType("System.String"))); 
        
                        CourseTable.Columns.Add(new DataColumn("Section", Type.GetType("System.String"))); 
        
                        CourseTable.Columns.Add(new DataColumn("Title", Type.GetType("System.String"))); 
        
                        CourseTable.Columns.Add(new DataColumn("Session", Type.GetType("System.String"))); 
        
                        CourseTable.Columns.Add(new DataColumn("Professor(s)", Type.GetType("System.String"))); 
        
                        CourseTable.Columns.Add(new DataColumn("Units", Type.GetType("System.Int32"))); 
        
                        CourseTable.Columns.Add(new DataColumn("Schedule", Type.GetType("System.String"))); 
        
                        CourseTable.Columns.Add(new DataColumn("Cohort", Type.GetType("System.String"))); 
        
                        CourseTable.Columns.Add(new DataColumn("Description", Type.GetType("System.String")));

    
            <telerik:RadGrid ID="GridCore" runat="server" Skin="WebBlue" AutoGenerateColumns="false"> 
        
                        <MasterTableView> 
        
                            <NestedViewTemplate> 
        
                                <!-- Need to Add the Description column in here" --> 
        
                            </NestedViewTemplate> 
        
                            <Columns> 
        
                                <telerik:GridBoundColumn HeaderText = "Course" DataField = "Course"/> 
        
                                <telerik:GridBoundColumn HeaderText = "Section" DataField = "Section"/> 
        
                                <telerik:GridBoundColumn HeaderText = "Title" DataField = "Title"/> 
        
                                <telerik:GridBoundColumn HeaderText = "Professor(s)" DataField = "Professor(s)"/> 
        
                                <telerik:GridBoundColumn HeaderText = "Units" DataField = "Units"/> 
        
                                <telerik:GridBoundColumn HeaderText = "Schedule" DataField = "Schedule"/>

Custom Binding Grid + Combo or Drop Down

Hi All,

I have only about 5 hours experiance with these controls so please be gentle. I need to get a rough demo together ASAP.
So having very little experiance with these controls... (and I only have 10 hours in ASP.NET!)

1) I presume unbound custom binding using DataTable, saving it into Session[""] is going to be the fast method for reading data?
I always tend to use Object models for Win32 applications, is the ObjectDataSource not more of an overhead in a ASP.NET app?

2) I need to populate a couple of unbound DropDowns. Where do I load the data?

3) How do I get a radCombo into a grid column?

Sorry if these questions seem to cover old ground but there is a lot documentation, etc just need a few quick pointers...

Many thanks for your help...

Ian.

[Solved] Losing session after file uploading

Hello,

We are using DNN 4.8.2 Portal with some subportals. Some of our modules are using Telerik controls to upload files. On the main portal all works fine, but on the subportals we have a problem with Telerik RadProgressManager / RadProgressArea controls.
So you can browse and select a file, view progress bar, but once the upload has completed, session will be lost immediately. It appears because of some cookies are removed: .DOTNETNUKE, portalaliasid, portalroles. As I mentioned before these cookies will be lost on sub portals only – on the main portal they will still present after upload is finished. If progress bar is not used everything will works fine.

We are using 2008.1.619.35 version (RadControls_for_ASP.NET_AJAX_2008_1_619_dev.exe).

DNN configuration:

Web.config
<configuration>
…
<location path="Telerik.RadUploadProgressHandler.ashx">
            <system.web>
                        <authorization>
                                   <allow users="*" />
                        </authorization>
            </system.web>
</location>
…
<httpModules>
            …
            <add name="RadUploadModule" type="Telerik.Web.UI.RadUploadHttpModule, Telerik.Web.UI" />
</httpModules>
…
<httpHandlers>
…
    <add verb="*" path="Telerik.RadUploadProgressHandler.ashx" type="Telerik.Web.UI.RadUploadProgressHandler, Telerik.Web.UI" /></httpHandlers>
…
</configuration>

SiteUrls.config are:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>
<RewriterConfig>
            <Rules>
                        <RewriterRule>
                                   <LookFor>.*Telerik.RadUploadProgressHandler.ashx(.*)</LookFor>
                                   <SendTo>~/Telerik.RadUploadProgressHandler.ashx$1</SendTo>
                        </RewriterRule>
                        <RewriterRule>
...
</RewriterConfig>

What can cause such behavior? Is it connected to issue http://www.telerik.com/community/forums/thread/b311D-dtgtt.aspx? How it can be fixed?

Regards,

Jochem

Default colors different in RadEditor?

Did the default colour scheme change somewhere along the line in the RadEditor? We're using 2009.1.402.35, and where it used to be the "websafe" palette by default, I'm getting some odd colours---the first line now starts with:

(empty) #000000 #eeece1 #1f497d #4f81bd ...

I know I can can fix this by overriding it in the ToolsFile.xml, but it seems like the default should indeed be the (so-called) websafe colours by default:

http://www.telerik.com/help/aspnet-ajax/colors.html

Could it be getting the colours from somewhere else?

Thanks,

-Mike

[Solved] Transparency Issue with Ajax Loading Panel

Is it possible to set the transparency of the loading panel without affecting the opacity of the loading image? I would like to increase the transparency of the panel to 70%, but this makes the loading image hardly visible. Is there a way to seperate these two?
