I spent a good deal of searching before posting, so I apologize in advance if this has been asked and answered.
I have the RadControls for ASPNET AJAX Q1 2008 installed with Visual Studio 2008. Everything is working fantastically in my website except the design time mode. Design mode does not show the loading panel image or the skins chosen for my controls. When I view the page in a browser, however the skin is correct and the Loading Panel image appears, etc. I have a feeling I am missing something very simple here, so any help would be greatly appreciated.

Hello M,
The "broken" LoadingPanel image is a known one and we would see if it is possible at all to show at design time when referenced through GetWebResourceUrl(). Note that this is not VS2008 specific but applies to VS2005 as well. As to the controls' skins - I just tested a few of our commonly used ones (Grid, Menu and TreeView) and they did change properly in design time (screenshot attached). Can you share what controls are you having problems with?
Sincerely yours,

I am having trouble with all of the controls.
Some extra information since the last post. I figured it was something I had done, so I uninstalled the Rad Controls, and re installed them, still no luck. Finally I built a test page, and ran it from the ASP.NET Development server that runs with Visual Studio 2008. From the original page load, it worked fine, but when I pressed the ASP button, all of the controls broke until I did a hard refresh from the browser. I then tried to publish the page to my local box, to see if the same behavior existed, and when published, the controls would not work at all.
I mainly tested with a calendar control, and the skin appears, but I can' change date forward and the mouse over effects are gone.
Here is the ASPX I used
I have some screenshots as well:
Working Calendar before Button press
Calendar Working
Loading working after button press
Loading Panel
No Longer Working

Hello M,
I review the provided code and noticed that you are adding RadAjaxPanel in the RadAjaxManager settings. Actually we do not recommend using this approach, as there are some known issues when using both the manager and the panel in some complex applications. However, note that a single RadAjaxManager (and no panels) in the main page could handle all the scenarios.
All the best,

Well, I have been busy working on some other projects, but I have finally had a chance to return to this problem, and have some new questions.
I basically decided to start over, so I uninstalled both the RadControls Q3 2007 and RadControls Q1 2008 (415). I also verified that the toolbox was removed and the file system was clean. I tried to do some other searching for similar problems and I came across the following "Asp.net 3.5" forum entry that had a simple sample application. Before installing anything, I decided to try and run this sample application, and from the "ASP.Net Development server" the application ran fine. From the design view in Visual Studio 2008, I got an error creating control message (understandable since I did not have the controls installed): "Error Creating Control - RadEditor1Unable to create type 'telerik:RadEditor'. Could not load file or assembly 'System.Web.Extensions, Version=1.0.61025.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=31bf3856ad364e35' or one of its dependencies. The system cannot find the file specified.".
The next step I took was to publish the website to my local machine, and see if it would run in IIS7. The web page came up, but I noticed an interesting behavior: the spell check would not work, and then I tried to bring up the "Paste from Word" dialog and got the following error: ImageShack Host Error Pic.
At this point I figured it could still be because I had not yet re installed the Rad Controls, so that was my next step. After re installing (with the 515 version), these errors still exist. There seems to be a problem with my local IIS and whatever is "deployed" with the integrated ASP.Net Development Server from Visual Studio. I really love your controls, and I believe there is probably something simple I am missing with regards to IIS or Vista or 2008 because those are all new platforms I am having to develop with and I am really not sure what else to check or try.
Thank you for any help or insight you may have.

Hi M,
The presented error could occur if the installation can not create the virtual directory correctly. Could you please try to recreate the virtual directory manually and verify if the error will appear again.

Maria,
Your post was a bit brief and I am not sure I understand which installation is not correctly creating the virtual directory. The sample application when published does appear to have a correct virtual directory created. I do not see any RadControl Virtual directories though nor do I know what I would need to create for these.
Thanks again.

Hello M,
The Virtual Directory problems I mentioned in my previous post, are referred to the sample application publishing. Have you tried to recreate this directory?
Could you please let me know if you change the dll files in the bin folder of this sample application, after you reinstall the 515 suite? You should add the correct dll files in order to have the project working. Also could you please verify if a correct web config file exists in your application?
If you are still not able to isolate the problem on your side, please open a regular support ticket and send us sample runnable project, which replicates this error. We will test it locally and provide suitable solution for this issue.
