[Solved] dhtmlx tree vs telerik's treeview

We are currently using dhtmlx trees on a control with three trees, each tree is populated from different sources (two different webservices) we're running into several performance issues, one of them being the time it takes to load. We were looking into using telerik's treeview control instead. I tried to do some research on google for performance differences between the two controls (dhtmlx tree and rad tree view) but couldn't find any. Thought this would be the best place to ask. I tried to implement a prototype of that control using telerik's tree view (trial version) and it did seem to load a lot faster. I just need an assurance before we go ahead and purchase the telerik's suite.

Thanks much,

Chandana

Rad date picker in Item Template of grid

I have a rad date picker in the item template of the grid

    
            <telerik:GridTemplateColumn AllowFiltering="false" HeaderText="Date" UniqueName="Date" Visible="true"> 
        
             <ItemTemplate> 
        
              <telerik:RadDatePicker Skin="Web20"  ID="RadDate"  runat="server" Width="95px"> 
        
               <Calendar ID="Calendar" runat="server" > 
        
               </Calendar> 
        
               <DateInput ID="DateInput_GateWayDate" runat="server"  Width = "60px"  
        
                                                        DateFormat="M/d/yyyy" > 
        
            </DateInput> 
        
              <DatePopupButton HoverImageUrl="" ImageUrl="" /> 
        
            </telerik:RadDatePicker>

Its working fine in Firefox 3
But in IE 8, the first row of the grid shows correctly.
But in the second row the date inputs width is increased.
How to correct this?

RadGrid CompareValidator

I have a RadGrid with Auto Insert/Update/Delete on using EditForm mode. I want to add a compare validator between a field called lowvalue and highvalue. What is the best way to do this.
lowvalue and highvalue I am using GridNumericColumn.

I am at a crunch in the project so I will take the easiet approach client/server side doesn't matter, I just need to make sure the low value is less than or equal to the high value if the high value is not null or empty
and the high value is greater than or equal to the low value if the low value is not null or empty. If the validation fails I need to display an error message in the EditMode of the form and prevent the insert/update.

Note: If you suggest using an ItemTemplate or EditTemplate please also provide a complete reference and/or demo. I have been trying to research the EditTemplate but I have not found any good tutorials. I am a total novice at the ItemTemplate/EditTemplate approach.

innerHTML of get_textElement() not persisting

Hi I am using version 2009.01.0402.35 of the RadTreeView.
I am attempting to put simple HTML (mainly BRs and  s) into the text of RadTreeNodes via clientside Javascript.
I realise that set_text() will strip the tags and found in the forums to set the innerHTML propertry of .get_textElement() instead.
I also understand that will not be persisted after a postback.
My issue is however, when I rearrange the nodes, ie move this node up or down a level in the tree, again using entirely client javascript, the node's text is set back to it's original nonHTML value.

I am considering putting the value I want inside a custom attribute and then after the reshuffle operation restting the innerHTML from the attribute but consider this to be clunky as well as wasting memory, viewstate and CPU cycles.

Alternatively is there a way of insterting a new lines (or line breaks) into the text value of the node without using HTML?

Thanks

I have to create a copy functionality in the radGrid. So If have one more linkbutton with 'copy' text and call the same window as an edit and pass an extra parameter (commandname = 'copy') then I can insercept this and send it to the database as a copy item.

Can someone please provide me an example ?

[Solved] RadComboBox in custom server control

I'm looking to add a RadComboBox to a custom server control (a custom WebPart CatalogPart control). Basically, my webpart catalog pulls a directory from a database, and I want to use the properties to populate the RadComboBox for the user to select the desired WebPart.

What do I need to do in order to declare a new instance of a RadComboBox programmatically, and to add items to it manually?

blank column in grid

I have found that for the telerik provided skins that produce a border around the cell, for example Inox which just has a horizontal border, I must change blank values to   to see that border when the value is blank.

Is there a better way to handle this situation where I must change the value in itemdatabound to get the border to show?

ex:

if

(dataView["CodeDesc"].ToString().Trim().Length == 0)

{

dataitem[

"CodeDesc"].Text = "&nbsp";

}
