    I have a RadMenu that uses sub-items in a variety of places. What I would like to do is have the items that have children not be clickable themselves (since they exist only for categorization purposes). I tried just making that item .Enabled = false but that caused it to shift in appearance which I do NOT want.. I couldn't seem to get the DisabledCSSStyle property to work with this..

    Is there an easy way to do this? If it matters, I am building my menus dynamically..

    Hello,

    Add the "!important" keyword in the style in order to override the default style of RadMenu.

    CSS:
    <style type="text/css">
        .disabledItem
        {
            color:Black !important;
        }
    </style>


    aspx:
    <telerik:RadMenuItem runat="server" Text="City">
         <Items>
          <telerik:RadMenuItem Enabled="false" DisabledCssClass="disabledItem" runat="server" Text="Ohio">
          </telerik:RadMenuItem>


    Thanks,
    Princy.

    Hi Chris Mitchell,

    You can subscribe to the OnClientItemClicking event and check if the current clicked item has children. If yes - the event will be cancelled. Here's a sample code:

    function clientItemClickingHandler(sender, args) {
                var item = args.get_item();
                if (item.get_items().get_count() != 0) {
                    args.set_cancel(true);
                }
                else {
                    alert("item is clicked");
                }
            }

    Hope this helps.
