Current month in RadCalendar?

[Mantas]

Hi,

Can anyone tell me how can I get current month on client-side? I need to fire web service on OnCalendarViewChanged and pass current month. Something like:

<script type="text/javascript">
 function ViewChanged(sender, eventArgs)
 {
   var month = getMonth();
  myWebServiceMethod(month); 
 }
</script>
<telerik:RadCalendar ID="RadCalendar1" runat="server">
 <ClientEvents OnCalendarViewChanged="ViewChanged" />
</telerik:RadCalendar>

Hello Mantas,

I modified your code a bit:

    function ViewChanged(sender, eventArgs)
    {
        var month = sender.get_focusedDate()[1];
        //...
    }

Let us know if we can assist you further.

Hi,
Thanks a lot for quick answer, that was what I needed. However, now I ran into another problem and whatever I do I can’t get to work around it. To make this short, I need to fire webservise method when user navigates to a different month. Then to fill RadCalendar cells with received results. To solve this I tried to used onCalendarViewChanged and onDateRender, Something like:
//-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
    var _result;
    var _loaded;

 function onDateRender(sender, eventArgs) {
    if( _loaded == false) {
             var month = sender.get_focusedDate()[1];
              MyWebserviceMethod(month, OnSuccess);
             _loaded = true;
         } 
   var cell = eventArgs.get_cell();
   cell.innerHTML += fillCell( _result );
}

 function  onCalendarViewChanged (sender, eventArgs) {
     _loaded = false;
}      

function onSuccess(result) {
        _result = result;
    }
//------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The problem with that is that RadCalendar finishes render before webservice returns required data. I guess all of this could be easily solved if I could just trigger RadCalander to re-render itself on onSuccess once I am sure that I received required data. Is there a way to refresh the RadCalendar or maybe someone has better ideas on how to achieve these aims?

Hello Mantas,

Try the following approach:

var _result;
var _loaded;

function onDateRender(sender, eventArgs)
{
    if( _loaded == false)
    {
        var month = sender.get_focusedDate()[1];
        _loaded = true;
    }
    var cell = eventArgs.get_cell();
    MyWebserviceMethod(month, OnSuccess,null,cell);
}

function onCalendarViewChanged (sender, eventArgs)
{
     _loaded = false;
}

function onSuccess(result,cell)
{
    cell.innerHTML += fillCell( _result );
    _result = result;
}
