Hi there everyone,

I have just starting using these RadControls, and man, what a great job you guys have done... Its been an absolute pleasure working with them...

That said i am having some wierd browser compatibility issues with the RadRotator. I believe it has something to do with my styling of the ItemTemplate of the control...

This works exactly as i want it to work in Firefox but it IE i get blank nothingness where there is supposed to be my ItemTemplate. occasionaly it will display a sliver of the image i am wanting to display. I am assuming that it is cliping the content of the ItemTemplate for some reason.

I am using some styling for the layers inside the ItemTemplate of the control. Here is the code:

    
                <rad:RadRotator ID="RadRotator1" runat="server" OnItemClick="RadRotator1_ItemClick" 
        
                    OnItemDataBound="RadRotator1_ItemDataBound" Width="430" Height="395"> 
        
                    <ItemTemplate> 
        
                        <div id="ResortSpecialContainer">

                            <asp:ImageButton ID="btnSpecialImage" runat="server" /> 
        
                            <div id="SpecialName"> 
        
                                <asp:Label ID="lblName" runat="server" /></div> 
        
                            <div id="SpecialTag"> 
        
                                <asp:Label ID="lblTag" runat="server" /></div> 
        
                            <div id="SpecialText"> 
        
                                <asp:Label ID="lblText" runat="server" /></div> 
        
                        </div> 
        
                    </ItemTemplate> 
        
                </rad:RadRotator>

    
            #ResortSpecialContainer{ 
        
                height: 395px; 
        
                width: 430px; 
        
                margin-right: auto; 
        
                margin-left: auto;

                top: 1px; 
        
                left: 0px; 
        
                clear: both; 
        
            } 
        
            #ResortSpecialContainer #SpecialName{ 
        
                font-family: "Trebuchet MS", Arial, Verdana; 
        
                font-size: 18px; 
        
                color: #FFFFFF; 
        
                position: absolute; 
        
                top: 270px; 
        
                text-align: center;

                overflow: hidden; 
        
            }

                color: #FFFFFF; 
        
                position: absolute; 
        
                top: 295px; 
        
                text-align: center; 
        
                left: 65px; 
        
                width: 300px; 
        
                font-weight: bold; 
        
                whitewhite-space: nowrap; 
        
                overflow: hidden; 
        
            } 
        
            #ResortSpecialContainer #SpecialText{ 
        
                font-family: "Trebuchet MS", Arial, Verdana; 
        
                font-size: 18px; 
        
                color: #FFFFFF; 
        
                position: absolute; 
        
                top: 315px; 
        
                text-align: center; 
        
                left: 85px; 
        
                width: 260px; 
        
                whitewhite-space: nowrap; 
        
                overflow: hidden; 
        
            }

The layers inside ResortSpecialContainer are absolute positioned to display on top of the image...

Can anyopne see what i am doing wrong here and why IE is way off the reservation on this?

RadComboBox events not firing

I'm trying to get the RadComboBox to work. I've downloaded the "Paging in RadComboBox' Load On Demand" example from http://www.telerik.com/community/code-library/aspnet-ajax/combobox/paging-in-radcombobox-load-on-demand.aspx, which works fine.

Now I want do duplicate this functionality, however I can't seem to get it working (for some reason no client or server events are firing), so I've downloaded the RadControlsAJAXCourseware.pdf courseware to follow the guide step-by-step but onn page 368 step 3 it asks for a folder "\VS Projects\Images\Colors" which I cannot find; there is no folder like this on my system.

I have installed "RadControls 'Prometheus' for ASPNET Q3 2007". Can you point me in the right direction as to any possible reasons why my events don't fire and/or this Colors folder? I'm assumming there will be a simple solution, but for the life of me I can't find it !?!

Thanks.

[Solved] Edit DetailsTable in RadGrid

I got 3 hierarchical levels RadGrid generated in run-time. The RadGrid was binded by setting its DataSource property. I'd like to perform the Insert/Update/Delete functions in the DetailsTables, just wonder how to distinguish which details table I am editing to, since different tables might use different datasource.

Positioning issues

Hi,

I have noticed some issues on the positioning on the prometheus rad window. Well I am saving the position of the rad window, so when I load the page just assign that saved position to the window, but if the x or y is greater than the browser size it will just wrap it out at the bottom of the browser instead of positioning on the correct position. I have tried with the offsetelementid, but haven't any success.
I have seen on the demos that it happens the same, you can see it in here:
http://www.telerik.com/DEMOS/ASPNET/Prometheus/Window/Examples/ShowAndPosition/DefaultCS.aspx

in this, if you have the browser not maximized and you click on "show window 200 pixels below" you will see that the window will show over the that link when it supposed to be below it on 200px.

I discovered that in the asp.net rad windows that doesn't happen:
http://www.telerik.com/demos/aspnet/Window/Examples/ShowAndPosition/DefaultCS.aspx

Does someone has any solution for this? is there a fix for this? I will really appreciate any help.

Thanks in advance.

[Solved] Question: Adding "Imports Telerik.Web.UI" to the page

Hello,

On page 25, section 1.6 "Before You Begin..." of the training guide states to add the above statement to a project file. Where exactly do I add that? I opened the code behind file and this is what I did:

Partial Class _Default

Inherits System.Web.UI.Page

Imports Telerik.Web.UI

End Class

However, "Imports" has a crinkled underline beneath it with a message saying: "Import statements must precede any declarations". I've moved the "Imports Telerik.Web.UI" above the "Inherits" statement and above the Partial Class line, however I still get the crinkled underlines. Where exactly do I put the "Imports Telerik.Web.UI" in the Default.aspx.vb file?

RadCalender Issues - Noah from Telerik

Hey everyone. I've posted this as a courtesy for one of our former customers. Any feedback is much appreciated. (Note to the Dev team: the images which are not appearing are posted in the newsgroups).
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I am using the RadCalendar.Net2 control Version 2.2.4.0 and RadInput.Net2 control version 2.1.4.0 both with App_Licenses with Visual Studio 2.0.50727 SP1 VB is the language

I am experiencing the following new problems with the controls.

1. I am using three radInput edit mask controls inside a Panel control one a zip code and two for phone numbers with the following for one of the phone numbers,

<radi:radmaskedtextbox id="txtPhone" runat="server" catalogiconimageurl="" description=""

displaypromptchar="_" mask="(###) ###-####" promptchar="_" style="z-index: 126;

left: 262px; position: absolute; top: 92px" title="" titleiconimageurl="" titleurl=""

width="88px" TabIndex="13"></radi:radmaskedtextbox>

Note the screen shot below The three controls are positione at the top right of the panel and can not me move to be placed after the label for each control. The display properly in the broswer because the position, but the position can not be changes by using Layout to change theposition from Not Set to Absolute.

2. Note the Calendar control in the Drug Contact Panel at the lower right. If I attempt to move the Panel in any way or even attempt to move the control the following results:

If I place the Calendar controls inside a table the problem does not happen. Both of these problems are recent and I can’t think of any changes I have made except I changes from an earlier Calendar control, but I don’t remember having the problem at that time.

3. This is the most serious problem. I have a site that allows clients to connect to different MS Access databases. The only difference is the Access Database. Everyone is using the same web application. We have one client who cannot open any page that contains a Calendar control. When attempting to open the page, the site throws a Parsing error. I thought the problem was related to a security setting on their network. However, there is one computer which is using an Verizon Air Card. That computer can open all of the sites except one. When they try to open a page that has a calendar control at the site thunder.wraptools.net, they get the parsing error. It looks like their browser cannot read the RadCalendar.dll

The following is the error they get when trying to access a page with a control

Server Error in '/' Application.
