    Hello,
            Wish you all merry christmas and a happy new year.  I want to change the color of the text in a RadTextBox control dynamically OnMouseOut. I want to do it on Client-Side. I checked the Input styles properties. and I didnt see any method to set the style of input. I saw get_style() but not set_style, not sure how to do it..


    Thanks,
    Bharani

    You should be able to get it done with some quick jQuery

    http://docs.jquery.com/CSS/css#namevalue

        $telerik.$("#'<%=myTextBox.ClientID %>'").mouseover(function () {
      $telerik.$(this).css("color","red");
    });
    Here's the events you can use
    http://docs.jquery.com/Events

    jQuery comes embedded into most of the telerik components, just make sure to use $telerik.$ instead of just $.

    Give it a try, you can do some awesome stuff with jQuery, and like I said, it comes built into the Telerik.Web.UI anyway!

    Hello Bharani,

    You can set styles for the datepicker as shown below:
    js:
    function MouseOut(sender,args) 
        { 
           sender.get_styles().EnabledStyle[0] += "background-color: lightblue;"; 
           sender.updateCssClass(); 
        } 

    Check out the section 'Changing the appearance style of RadInput controls on the client' of the following document for more information:
    Client-Side Basics

    Thanks
    Princy.

    Hello Princy,
             I did try your way of setting the forecolor of the textbox but didnt work.

                sender.get_styles().EnabledStyle[0] += "ForeColor: red";
                sender.updateCssClass();



         
    Am I doing anything wrong?

    Thanks,
    Bharani

    Hi Bharani Mani,

    ForeColor is a server-side ASP.NET property. The corresponding CSS property is color.

    Please make yourself familiar with the CSS properties at
