What is the proper technique to cancel a button clicked on the RadToolBar.

Simplistically, I'd like to do something like the following in code behind:


But this JavaScript does not cancel the call back to the server.

Any ideas?

Thanks.

I am having the same problem. On a button click I want to fire some Javascript code and prevent a server postback.

If I do this:

    function OnClientButtonClicking(sender, args)
    {       
        args.set_cancel(true);
       
        var button = args.get_item();
               
        if (button.get_value() == "print")
        {
            window.print();
        }

I get this error:

    Microsoft JScript runtime error: Object doesn't support this property or method

on the args.set_cancel line. If I try canceling it this way it doesn't throw any errors but the server-side ButtonClick event is still hit:

    function OnClientButtonClicking(sender, args)
    {       
        var domEvent = args.get_domEvent();
       
        // Stop IE from showing its context menu.
        domEvent.cancelBubble = true;

        if (domEvent.stopPropagation)
        {
            domEvent.stopPropagation();
        }
              
        domEvent.returnValue = false;   
                  
        var button = args.get_item();
               
        if (button.get_value() == "print")
        {
            window.print();
        }

Hi guys,

Please, find attached a small page, demonstrating the button click cancellation. Terry, could it be that you've actually subscribed to the OnClientButtonClicked event?

You're right. I would have swore that I changed OnClientButtonClicked to OnClientButtonClicking, but after the leaving the code for awhile and then coming back to it I quickly saw that I had not changed it.

Thanks!

Hello,
I resolve with a java confirm invoked in OnClientItemClicking

<

script type="text/javascript">

function onMyClicked(sender, args)

{

var btn = args.get_item().get_value();

if (btn == 'IDDelete') {

var result = confirm("Are you sure you clicked: " + btn);

if (! result){

args.set_cancel(

true);

}

}

}

</

script>

Kind regards
