Calling a Page View's JavaScript Function

[Bruce]

Index.aspx contains a RadtabStrip and RadMultiPage.  From Index.aspx, I am trying to call a JavaScript function found in selected PageView's content, which is another ASPX page.  My JavaScript in Index.aspx that is trying to make the call to Page VIew looks like this (saveData is the function in the child ASPX page):

 

 

 

 

var multiMain = $find("<%= mulMain.ClientID %>");

 

 

 

 

var pageToSave = multiMain.get_selectedPageView();

 

 

 

 

var pageContent = pageToSave.get_element();

 

 

pageContent.saveData()

 

;

Obviously, I can't get this to work.  I can see from the examples that you can change style information, among a number of other things, but it appears that I'm doing so for the immediate container of the child ASPX (an iframe), and not for the ASPX page itself.

Does anyone have any idea how to pull this off, how to call the JavaScript of an ASPX page contained within a Page View of RadMultiPage?

I figured out a complete workaround that does just fine for my purposes.  I set the Page View's innerHTML to an iframe that I labeled that I can then find later.  With a handle on that iframe, I can call iframe.contentWindow.functionName();

I am curious if there is a standardized, accepted Telerik way of doing this.  However, if answering that question costs you any significant amount of time, please don't bother.  I have a solution that suffices.

Hello Bruce,

There are various sources among the web on how to achieve the desired functionality. You could check this thread for instance.

Thanks.  That's pretty much what I did.
