Insert Form Element

[Jaakko Toppari]

Hi! Is it possible to customize default action field of insert form? I would like to add default actions so that it would send email when submitted. I just can't find any proper documentation or the code for doing this.. Thanks for your help!

Hello,

RadEditor is used for editing and creating HTML content and you can think of the editor as an advanced TextBox control. The editor control allows you to insert form HTML fields and to specify an action for a form (see the attached screenshot) and this is all the editor is supposed to do. If you would like to use the editor's content in another page, in a new user control or in a new web form, you should use your custom logic to do so as this is outside the editor's domain. You should use some IDE such as Visual Studio and write server code and create pages.

If you would like you can change the content inserted via the InsertFormElement dropdown using the OnClientPasteHtml event of RadEditor.

Kind regards,

Thanks! That helped me to move on, but now I would like to hide few fields etc. Classname field and add a new checkbox field After I have inserted some of the form elements from the dropdown. Is this possible? I attached image to show you what I mean.

Hi,

You can see the following forum thread on the subject: Edit html div attributes in design mode.
There isn't an easy way to add a checkbox to the built-in dropdown and if this is a mandatory requirement it is better to implement your own custom module.

Note that this is a customization and we do not support it.

Hello,

This is an IE9 behavior to not save the value of the edited textbox. The only workaround that I could propose for fixing this issue is to render the page in IE8 mode using the following tag:

<meta http-equiv="X-UA-Compatible" content="IE=EmulateIE8" />

In Firefox the user is not allowed by the browser to type in the textbox elements.

Hello,

You have found a bug, which I logged for fixing in our bug tracking system. I also updated your Telerik points.

I noticed that if you select the text and delete it, the textbox is not deleted.

The bug reported in your earlier post is logged with high priority and if possible we will fix it during the service packs following the Q1 2013 release.
