We have a page where a panel containing a radeditor is set to display=none at page load event (panel1.style.add("display", "none").

We have a link control that triggers a server side event that sets the panel's display style to block. However when we click the link, we get the following javascript error:

Microsoft JScript runtime error: Sys.InvalidOperationException: Component 'ctl00_cphCenter_staticpage_ctrl_ctl00_cphCenter_staticpage_ctrl_radBodydialogOpener' was not found.

In the other telerik version, we had a problem when a parent control's Visible property is set to false, so we worked around this by using the Style display property.

This does not seem to work for this version though.

We're using Ajax with Master/Detail pages.

The error above was generated by this RadEditor Script:

function Sys$Component$_setReferences(component, references) {
    for (var name in references) {
        var setter = component["set_" + name];
        var reference = $find(references[name]);
        if (typeof(setter) !== 'function') throw new Error.invalidOperation(String.format(Sys.Res.propertyNotWritable, name));
        if (!reference) throw Error.invalidOperation(String.format(Sys.Res.referenceNotFound, references[name]));
        setter.apply(component, [reference]);
    }
}

Has anyone encountered this, and how can it be solved? Thanks.

I am running into this exact same problem. We are using Q3 2013 controls currently.
Problem: we have a tab strip with 2 tabs. Each tab has a Radeditor on it. However, we are not setting display or visible false on the tabstrips or Radeditor but during page loading after pageload has fired we get:

0x800a139e - JavaScript runtime error: Sys.InvalidOperationException: Component 'ctl00_PlaceHolderMainContent_RadEditor1_dialogOpener' was not found.

below is the structure of our aspx page.

<telerik:RadAjaxLoadingPanel ID="RadAjaxLoadingPanelToolbar" runat="server" Transparency="10" HorizontalAlign="Center"></telerik:RadAjaxLoadingPanel>

<telerik:RadAjaxPanel ID="AjaxPanel" runat="server" LoadingPanelID="RadAjaxLoadingPanelToolbar">

<telerik:RadSplitter ID="RadSplitter1" runat="server" Enabled="true">

<telerik:RadPane ID="contentPane" Visible="true" runat="server" Enabled="false" Width="710px">

<telerik:RadTabStrip ID="rtsDescriptions" runat="server" MultiPageID="rmpPages" SelectedIndex="0"

<Tabs>

<telerik:RadTab Text="Short Description" PageViewID="rpvShort" />

<telerik:RadTab Text="Long Description" PageViewID="rpvLong" />

Hello Keith,

I used the provided configuration, but I was unable to find JS errors. Please review this screencast and let me know if I am missing something important that could lead to the problematic behavior.

It would be helpful if you are able to provide a runnable project, that demonstrates the problem, so that I could be able to investigate it on my end.

Regards,
Ianko
