Disable radUpload on pageLoad()

[Jim]

I am unable to disable radUpload during client-side pageLoad().  What I want to do is during pageLoad() disable the control and then enable after two or more rows in a grid on the page have been selected.

Here is the tag for the radUpload control and pageLoad() function:

<

telerik:RadUpload ID="RadUploadBasicFile" runat="server" Skin="Telerik">

 

 

</telerik:RadUpload>

 

function

pageLoad() {

 

 

var basicUpload = $find('<%=RadUploadBasicFile.ClientID%>');

 

 

if (basicUpload != null)

 

basicUpload.Enabled =

false;

 

}

I did verify that it is hitting the pageLoad() function and the basicUpload.Enabled line.  I also tried the set_enabled() method for the radupload object, but that didn't work either.

Any ideas how I can disable the control client-side.  I did read on another thread that if you disable a control on the server-side that you cannot enable on the client-side.

I am using RadControls for ASP.NET AJAX Q3 2008.

Thanks.

Hi,

I am also having a similar requirement. I need to enable/disable radupload control from client side.
Is this bug fixed? or is there any other way to achieve it?

Hello Shrikant Kale,

Unfortunately we are not yet ready with that feature. There were some problems implementing it. However, there is a workaround that you can use. I have prepared sample project demonstrating how, on page load, the upload component is disabled. Then, based on some criteria, you can enable it using RadAjaxManager. This will lead to a behavior same as it was on the client side. For more information, please refer to the sample project.

Hi Genady Sergeev,

Thanks a lot for the reply. I have changed the design and will not have to disbale the upload control on client side. But I will consider your solution if I need to do it. Thanks again.
