Hi,
Quite a general question this. I've been trying to learn a little more about how Telerik controls actually work in my applications as it's often been a source of confusion for me, particularly the way you guys seem to embed Javascript/css inside the controls.
So, when I place a Telerik control on the page (which I assume is an ASP.NET custom control) it basically creates a lot of HTML which I can see but a lot seems to be hidden.
For example, there seems to be a hidden input field called "ControlName_ClientState" , what is held in this? and is it possible to access client side variables without having to use client side methods ?
Also, if I don't supply a skin name the default skin seems to be embedded in the control too. Presumably this is why my source code contains lots of lines that look like this ......
Sorry for all the newbie questions but I can't be the only person on here that would benefit from a deeper understanding of what happens when I use telerik controls.
