Hi,

Not really important, but I thought it was worth mentioning. Every time when Telerik releases hotfixes or a service pack, you update the RSS feed to notify people that new stuff is out. This is great, although I'm not sure it works properly, however the problem could be on my side. I'm using FeedReader (www.feedreader.com) to check new RSS feeds and experience that when you update the RSS feeds, all (or a lot) of earlier news messages also get marked as new (probably all got the same date as the new ones). I hope you understand what I mean, as in FeedReader I can't easily see what's new, and what's not.

Anyway maybe if you find time you can look into it,

Kind regards,

Martin de Ruiter

This question is not really a telerik issue - however I think this forum might be the place to ask. 

For some reason, I have lost in my VS the telerik toolboxes.  It was so neat to just click and drag and everything was in place. 

Where do I look for in the VS Toolbox, add/remove items, 'Customize Toolbox'  browse  - to find the Telerik Controls - so that it would be as easy as I once had it?

Thanks

on the updated product roadmap page, under the new calendar control - the different views:

WeakView should (probably) be WeekView (unless there's going to be a StrongView to go with the WeakView).

Looking forward to the release of the betas!

I hope telerik has some solution for this, because I wasn't succesfull of finding a solution after a few hours of googling... and because you always have solutions... :)

I have a ASP.NET web application wich is secured with Forms Authentication. When an user is authenticated and authorized he can navigate to a RSS Feed and see the generated xml. No problem.

But now I want to access this same page throug a client like RSS bandit.
I can insert a username and password for a particular feed, but this isn't working because RSS Feed Readers don't support Forms Authentication.

Do you understand my problem? And... do you maybe know a solution?
Thanks anyway...

Hi, all. Has Telerik thought of doing a Web cast with Microsoft? I just noticed Infragistics is showing off their products in a Microsoft ASP.NET Web cast. Why not Telerik? Your products are superior in every way! They have a "chief technology evangelist" who will be hosting the event.

I'd like to suggest that Telerik contact Microsoft about a Web cast, too. Here's where you can see a list of Microsoft's upcoming events,

Thanks!

Hello,

We have a problem with asp.net's Server.MapPath() function. It's not a problem of any telerik product, but it prevents us from using the RadEditor since the Image Manager uses this function. Forgive me if this doesn't belong here, but after days of debugging and trial&error we are quite desperate - maybe there are some people among you who can point us in the right direction.

Filesystem structure is as follows:

d:\inetpub
d:\inetpub\wwwroot\website
d:\fileserver
d:\fileserver\1\images
d:\fileserver\2\images

We have a web (on IIS6) with multiple host headers configured, let's say "www.site1.com" and "www.site2.com". The web's home directory is d:\inetpub\wwwroot\website. The web runs an ISAPI filter .dll that does the following:

- It looks in the current url for "/images/";
- When "/images/" is found, it uses the current host header / server name to rewrite the url path to a corresponding fileserver directory.

So, for example:

- When www.site1.com/images/foo.jpg is requested, the ISAPI makes IIS look for "foo.jpg" in d:\fileserver\1\images;
- When www.site2.com/images/bar.jpg is requested, the ISAPI makes IIS look for "bar.jpg" in d:\fileserver\2\images.

This works fine, not a problem. Now, let's say you place a file "test.aspx" + codebehind file in the website's root and you put the following code in it:

Response.Write(Server.MapPath("/images/"))

Untill a couple of days ago, this returned the correct translated path. If you requested www.site1.com/test.aspx, it returned d:\fileserver\1\images. If you requested www.site2.com/test.aspx, it returned d:\fileserver\2\images. Now, the problem that's suddenly come up:

It seems that suddenly ASP.NET holds the translated path in its memory for all subsequent requests. If you now request www.site1.com/test.aspx, it returns d:\fileserver\1\images. And it keeps returning this, even if you request www.site2.com/test.aspx. So, ASP.NET caches the path that Server.MapPath returns. We know it's a caching issue, cause after an IIS restart or an application build, the cache is emptied and the correct path is returned. But then it is cached again and the problem starts all over again. We also know it's a .NET issue, cause when you create a test.asp file (that is processed by the classic ASP engine), it returns the correct path - every time!

So, my questions are obvious.

- Why did ASP.NET start caching this path suddenly?
- How to solve this?
- I have searched the web for answers, but I can't find anything about .NET's internal caching. Is there any way to influence it?

Sorry this is such a long story, I wanted to make the situation absolutely clear. I think this is a real expert question, I hope someone has an idea of where to look. My thanks in advance.

In your kb article "(ID#568) Saving the viewstate of r.a.d.controls server-side" there is a little error : you need to change :

 public const string VIEW_STATE_FIELD_NAME = "__VIEWSTATE";

to :

 public const string VIEW_STATE_FIELD_NAME = "__VIEWSTATE1";

hi
how i  can change my  mail in  my  profile ?
thanx

These are all trivial questions...

1)  On the left-hand side of the display - even right now - I see a control titled "My Subscriptions".  It lists my five-most-recent subscriptions, and has a "More" button underneath them.  I clicked the More button, expecting to see more of my subscriptions, but instead it displayed what looked like search results, displaying forum posts from various forums.  Not only was this behavior surprising - I just wanted to see more of my subscriptions - it was very confusing, especially since it showed posts that I have had absolutely no input on...

2)  The cookie crumb seems to be having a conniption.  E.g., up top right now, I see "Forums Home > Miscellaneous > Miscellaneous"...  Why am I eeing double entries?

I know, all minor issues...

its the faq page on telerik points. What control is being used there for the expandable areas?
