HTML in the Satus Bar

[Andy Green]

Hi

Is it possible to put html in the status bar.

IE: sender.set_status("<strong>Boo</strong>");

It would be nice to colour it red and centre text as a warning.

Hello Andy,

The status bar of the RadWindow is an input element and does not take HTML.

What I can suggest is using jQuery to set the HTML you want. For example:

var statusCell = $telerik.$(".rwStatusbar td", sender.get_popupElement()).first();
statusCell.html("<strong>I am the desired bold text</strong>");

Hi, One last question: how can I use positional information, any margin / padding / text align is ignored, but colour / weight is applied.

Hi Andy,

On my end, padding seemed to work fine:

<telerik:RadWindow ID="RadWindow1" runat="server" VisibleOnPageLoad="true" OnClientShow="OnClientShow"></telerik:RadWindow>
<script type="text/javascript">
    function OnClientShow(sender, args) {
        var statusCell = $telerik.$(".rwStatusbar td", sender.get_popupElement()).first();
        statusCell.html("<strong style=\"padding-left: 50px;\">I am the desired bold text</strong>");
    }
</script>

I advise examining the resulting HTML in the dev toolbar of your browser to see what CSS rules apply to it so you can devise your own set accordingly.

I agree left padding does work, but top doesn't (I've had to use a couple of <br/>) and no matter what I try I can't get the text to centre. I cant rely on padding as I have this functionality on different sized pop ups.

Hello Andy,

Have you tried something like this:

statusCell.html("<div style=\"width: 100%; height: 100%;text-align: center; font-weight: bold;\">I am the desired bold text</div>");

Also, not that the statusbar cell is only 18px tall, so having line breaks is not likely to work out nicely.
