Set MaxLength of dynamically added RadEditor

Hi,

I just want to inquire if there is a way that I can set the maximum length that my RadEditor will accept. My RadEditor is dynamically added to a user control because we want to load it only when the user is using Firefox. I have to set the RadEditor to accept only a maximum length of text (excluding the HTML tags) and he won't accept any more if he has reached that length. Is there a property that we can set or a client side script that we can do for this?

Thanks,
Arthur

Clientside validator does not fire in RadWindow

Hi,
I have added a couple of required field validators to a form which I display within a rad window.
Now, the problem is that on submitting the page, the client side validation does not seem to be working. The validation error messages show up after the postback though.
Any idea what I should be doing differently?
Thanks,
Sreejath

Character count using Statistics module

Hi,
I am trying to use the Statistics module to include count of spaces and punctuation marks in the total character count in my radeditor.
However, I am unable to do so.
I am using Rad Editor version 7.2.1.0 and Telerik.Web.UI.dll version 2008.1.619.35.
The solution that I am trying to implement was working in a previous version of the Rad Editor.

Thank you

Client-side Validaiton of Numeric and Date Input Controls

Is there a way to query whether or not the value of a RadNumericTextBox or a RadDateInput is valid on the client side? I want to re-validate all the input fields on the screen when the user clicks a submit button and halt that postback action if any of the values are invalid.

I have three types of controls I'm using: RadTextBox, RadNumericTextBox, and RadDateInput. I validate the RadTextBox values client-side by comparing them against a preconfigured regular expression. I can do this for both the Numeric and Date controls as well, but was hoping there was an easier built in function to check the validity of the contents.

Thanks,
Andrew

I'm trying the control out and I cannot view my appointment on the timeline view even though it's displayed for every other view. Here is my code:

Dim ai As New AppointmentInfo("Test", "02/05/2009 12:00:00 PM", "02/05/2009 2:00:00 PM", Telerik.Web.UI.RecurrenceState.Occurrence)

ai.ProviderId = 1

Dim al As New List(Of AppointmentInfo)

al.Add(ai)

Dim rtProviders As New ResourceType("Providers")

Dim dtProviders As New Data.DataTable("Providers")

dtProviders.Columns.Add(

"ProviderId")

dtProviders.Columns.Add(

"ProviderName")

dtProviders.Rows.Add(

"1", "Edward McLaughlin")

dtProviders.Rows.Add(

"2", "Tom McDonald")

rtProviders.DataSource = dtProviders

rtProviders.ForeignKeyField =

"ProviderId"

rtProviders.KeyField =

"ProviderId"

rtProviders.TextField =

"ProviderName"

RadScheduler1.ResourceTypes.Add(rtProviders)

Dim rtRooms As New ResourceType("Rooms")

rtRooms.AllowMultipleValues =

False

Dim dt As New Data.DataTable("Rooms")

dt.Columns.Add(

"RoomId")

dt.Columns.Add(

[Solved] Data Export - not opening excel application automatically

Hi,

I have a RadGrid which exports data successfully in both Excel and .CSV file. The odd behaviour I am noticing is that when the page is run in intranet, IE prompts to either open/save the exported file. If I click on open, Excel application automatically opens it.

The same application when deployed in internet behaves differently. Exported data from grid is not opened automatically by excel instead prompts "OPEN WITH" different list of applications to choose from. File type is not recognized and original file name should be "PO_Media_Report_Excel.xls" rather it shows PO_Media_Report [1] or something like that.... :(
Could you please let me know why is it happening?

Codesnippet as below:

gridPOMedia.ExportSettings.ExportOnlyData =

True

gridPOMedia.ExportSettings.IgnorePaging = True

gridPOMedia.ExportSettings.OpenInNewWindow = True

gridPOMedia.ExportSettings.FileName = "PO_Media_Report_Excel" + Now.Date

gridPOMedia.MasterTableView.ExportToExcel()

On the same note, why the .pdf export looks so horrible. If you have say around 10-15 columns in the grid, column data are overlapping.

Many thanks for suggestion.

CheckBox Problem.

Here is a link my recent, but also current problem: Recent RadGrid post relative to this.

In the interum I have created a function to store the checked boxes and retrieve the ID's for said checks.

I have added teleriks code for ItemCreated and ItemPreRender (see below);

    
            Protected Sub RG2_ItemCreated(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As GridItemEventArgs) Handles RG2.ItemCreated  
        
                    If TypeOf e.Item Is GridDataItem Then 
        
                        AddHandler e.Item.PreRender, AddressOf RG2_ItemPreRender  
        
                    End If 
        
                End Sub 
        
                Protected Sub RG2_ItemPreRender(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As EventArgs)  
        
                    CType(CType(sender, GridDataItem)("CheckBoxTemplateColumn").FindControl("chkbxFacility"), CheckBox).Checked = CType(sender, GridDataItem).Selected  
        
                End Sub

My new error is "Unable to cast object of type 'Telerik.Web.UI.RadGrid' to type 'Telerik.Web.UI.GridDataItem'", so what gives.

Even with my new method, to track each check and uncheck, no data fills the RadGrid. Actually, the grid shows up with only the header column showing.

Another minor problem is when I fill the last RadGrid with data (forced), if I check the select all check box nothing happens, yet if check the internal rows they select all...I can't seem to figure this issue.

Here is how I pull and convert, keep track of the checks and changes to my data;

    
            For Each ID As String In facilityID  
        
                            IDList += ID & "," 
        
                        Next 
        
                        IDList.Remove(IDList.LastIndexOf(","), 1)  
        
            'Track the checks  
        
            Dim facilityID As New List(Of String)  
        
                    For Each dataItem As GridDataItem In RG3.MasterTableView.Items  
        
                        If CType(dataItem.FindControl("chkbxFacility"), CheckBox).Checked = True Then 
        
                            facilityID.Add(dataItem.OwnerTableView.DataKeyValues(dataItem.ItemIndex)("FacilityID").ToString())  
        
                        End If 
        
                    Next 
        
                    Return facilityID  
        
            'function for any changes or additions  
        
            If (CType(sender, CheckBox)).Checked Then 
        
                        For Each dataItem As GridDataItem In RG2.MasterTableView.Items  
        
                            CType(dataItem.FindControl("chkbxFacility"), CheckBox).Checked = True 
        
                            dataItem.Selected = True 
        
                        Next 
        
                    Else 
        
                        For Each dataItem As GridDataItem In RG2.MasterTableView.Items  
        
                            CType(dataItem.FindControl("chkbxFacility"), CheckBox).Checked = False 
        
                            dataItem.Selected = False 
        
                        Next 
        
                    End If 
        
                    'Make alternate call to FillDepartment to recognize any changes to the facility check box list  
        
                    FillDepartment(RG2_GetFacilityIDs)

Any help with all or some would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

-Ryan

Telerik.Web.UI RADAjaxManager + MOSS

Hi,

I am using Telerik.Web.UI 2008.2.1001.20. I am using RADAjaxManager which was working fine in classic (v1.8.5.0) in MOSS except for welcome message coming on top. So we changed to this new version which creates lot of issues. For the first time the page refreshes. For the second time everything seems to be fine. For the third time the loading panel won't come. But all these works fine only inside a grid if the EnableAjax Property is set to true. And after one AjaxPostback I am not able to group the columns. What do I miss here? Below is my code. Anything I need to add?

<

about menu width

Hi there,

I'm using rad menu to me website. All menu items are from links table of access database and I create my own menu skin. I set flow vertical but I could not fix the main menu width. It appears the width is adjusted according to the ment text.

Part of my style code of menu as following:

.RadMenu_IntegraTire
{
padding:10 10px;
width:100%;
}

.RadMenu_IntegraTire .link
{
background:#DCDCDB;
text-decoration:none;
text-align:left;
font-family:Lucida,Arial,sans-serif;
line-height:20px;
color:#6C6C6C;
letter-spacing:-0.05em;
border-bottom:solid 2px #ffffff;
}

I tried give .RadMenu_IntegraTire width 200px but it doesn't work. The website address is http://www.integratire.com.ds498.alentus.com/ for your reference.

Any idea about it? Thanks so much for your response.
