[Solved] Databinding the RadEditor control

[Shane Clay]

Hi Guys,

I'm playing around with the RadEditor for the first time. I want to databing the content to my datasource but can't seem to work out how.

My datasource;

 

<asp:SqlDataSource ID="sdsJobDetails_viewJobs" runat="server"
    ConnectionString="<%$ ConnectionStrings:Gateway10.My.MySettings.dbConnString %>"
    SelectCommand="SELECT * FROM [viewJob] WHERE ([jobID] = @jobID)"
    ProviderName="<%$ ConnectionStrings:Gateway10.My.MySettings.dbConnString.ProviderName %>">
    <SelectParameters>
        <asp:QueryStringParameter DefaultValue="0" Name="jobID"
            QueryStringField="jobID" Type="Int64" />
    </SelectParameters>
</asp:SqlDataSource>

This doesn't work;

<telerik:RadEditor ID="RadEditor1" runat="server" Height="300px" Width="100%" DataSourceID="sdsJobDetails_viewJobs"
    EditModes="Design" EnableResize="False" Content='<%#Bind("jobTextNotes")%>'>

Hi Shane,

Please, see the following live demo: Datagrid Edit Template, which demonstrates how to databind RadEditor. You can use either

<telerik:radeditor
       Id="Editor" 
       Runat="server" 
       Content='<%# DataBinder.Eval(Container.DataItem, "NewsText") %>'
 ></telerik:radeditor>

or

<telerik:radeditor
       Id="Editor" 
       Runat="server" 
       Content='<%# Bind(Container.DataItem, "NewsText") %>'
 ></telerik:radeditor>

Best wishes,
