Hello, all

I have an app that utilizes the PanelBar as the toolbar on the left-hand side. There are few textboxes, allowing users to enter some text and click one of the PanelBar item to initiate a search. Could you tell me how that I can capture when users hit the Enter key in order to activate the Search procedure? Thanks in advance.

Tri.

Hello Tri,

Here is an example:

<body onkeydown="CheckKey(event);">  
       <form id="form1" runat="server">  
    <asp:ScriptManager ID="ScriptManager1" runat="server">  
    </asp:ScriptManager> 
    <script type="text/javascript">  
        function CheckKey() {  
            if (event.keyCode == 13) {  
                var panelbar = $find("<%= RadPanelBar1.ClientID %>");  
                var panelbarSearchItem = panelbar.findItemByText("Search");  
                panelbarSearchItem.click();  
            }  
        }  
    </script> 
    <telerik:RadPanelBar ID="RadPanelBar1" runat="server" OnItemClick="RadPanelBar1_ItemClick">  
        <CollapseAnimation Type="None" Duration="100"></CollapseAnimation> 
        <Items> 
            <telerik:RadPanelItem runat="server" Text="Search">  
            </telerik:RadPanelItem> 
            <telerik:RadPanelItem runat="server" Text="Root RadPanelItem2">  
            </telerik:RadPanelItem> 
            <telerik:RadPanelItem runat="server" Text="Root RadPanelItem3">  
            </telerik:RadPanelItem> 
        </Items> 
        <ExpandAnimation Type="None" Duration="100"></ExpandAnimation> 
    </telerik:RadPanelBar> 
    <asp:TextBox ID="TextBox1" runat="server"></asp:TextBox> 
    </form>     
</body> 
 

 protected void RadPanelBar1_ItemClick(object sender, Telerik.Web.UI.RadPanelBarEventArgs e)  
    {  
        if (e.Item.Text == "Search")  
            Response.Write("Searching for '" + TextBox1.Text + "'...");  
    }

Hello Tri Nguyen,

The same code can be used in a master page as well.
