Hello,

As far as I know these controls cannot be created from Clientside. Check the following forum thread which discusses the similar scenario.

Hi,

Thanks for the quick reply.

Is it possible to create new control by getting the Client Object refrence of already rendered combobox control ?

I tried by following way.
 var vrDimension= $telerik.findControl(insertItem, "ddlDimension");
 RowItem.get_cell('ConstraintName').innerHTML = vrDimension.get_element().cloneNode(true).outerHTML;

Control is getting added this way ,but dropdown is not getting opened with its items.

Please suggest for the same.

Thanks & Regards,

Hello Somnath,

The desired functionality could be implemented but additional postback is required to dynamically create a RadComboBox control. Another possible solution is to create RadComboBox with Display set to None and then client-side just show the control. Note that cloning a RadComboBox HTML content to create another instance of it is not supported because there is client-side object associated with each control which depends on properties sends from the server which prevents the creation of them purely on the client.
