Is there a way to set target?

[Phil]

On the menu control you can ".Target" on a RadMenuItem.

 

How do I do that for a navigation control?

I have a few items that I want to open into a new tab rather than redirecting.

 

Thanks

Also is there a way to just bind a target property to the object that im binding it to like we do for DataTextField and DataNavigateUrlField?

Hello,

The RadNavigation does not have a DataTargetField property. Setting the Node's target can be done on the client, for example in the OnClientNodeClicking handler. To do so you can subscribe to the event and call the node's set_target() method in event's handler as shown below:

function OnClientNodeClicking(sender, eventArgs) {
    var node = eventArgs.get_node();
    node.set_target("_blank");
}

Is there a way to do this server site?

Err i mean "server side"

[Ivan Danchev]

Hello,

Yes, you can set a node's Target property server-side by accessing it in the RadNavigation's Nodes collection by index or finding it by Text/Url:

RadNavigation1.Nodes[0].Target = "_blank";
RadNavigation1.FindNodeByText("Root1").Target = "_blank";
RadNavigation1.FindNodeByUrl("http://www.telerik.com").Target = "_blank";
