The good thing about Telerik is that they offer a very comprehensive set of Web Forms controls.
The bad thing about Telerik is that they offer no Windows Forms controls.

I'm well aware that developing a windows control is an entirely different discipline from developing a web control, but what I would like very much is a library of web controls and windows controls that share the same object model: that would allow me to make an application logic layer, with very thin web presentation and windows presentation layers.

Failing Telerik's windows forms controls, are there any windows forms libraries out there that offer a reasonably similar object model?

hi

i just wanted to say that i'm really happy with the Telerik r.a.d. Control Suite we purchased last year. I actually look for ways to use the r.a.d. controls in every project. And i would also like to say what a joy and easy it is to use your products. Thanks and keep up the damn fine work!.

You guys surely know about the WebResource attribute in ASP.NET 2.0 - you can package external resource (like you Skin files - css and images or your Javascript files in your DLL assembly - this may cure the need for ~/RadControls folder.

Deploying the ~RadControls folder for all controls and keeping it in sync with the last hotfix is a tedious job, I'd love to have this cured.

What do you guys think about that (all developers using telerik controls, not only telerik offciails).

Is there a function that can be used to get the name of a Javascript variable? Look at the example below. Is there a function like "GetVarName"? alert(GetVarName(tt)) sould alert the text "myText" ...

var myText = "lorem";

function test(tt) {
    alert(GetVarName(tt));
}

test(tt);

Hello,
I think it's very good if you can add search funcationality to My Support section.

Hello,
I think it's very good if you add a place in forum posts that we can set a few keywords for post.
If it possible we can make a better search over forum.

Hello all:

I'd like to see one more category called "technical suggestions" where we can suggest and talk about various technologies that we'd like to see telerik incorporate into their products...

For example, I'd love to see telerik move their js libraries into dot net binary "webresource" files (DLLs) to help keep deployment easy... that way revision changes could be managed very easily by simply giving each webresource file a unique name corresponding to its revision number!

Anyway, please create a new category for other such kinds of comments.

First of thanks for alphabetizing your product lists in the forums and downloads, it's a big help.  One question on how you name you releases, why is Q1 coming out in March?  Why not make the Q_ the first month of the quarter vice the last so that the second and third month of the quarter become the SP months for that quarter.  Ex January becomes Q1 Release, February Q1 SP1, March Q1 SP2, April starts over with Q2.

Obviously it's not a big deal but I think it seems to make more sense.

What is up with the forums?
I can't seem to run any searches today - anyone else having troubles?
I checked from another system in my office and same thing.

Any idea when this will get fixed?
