JQuery Clone()

[saurabh]

I have a RadEditor in a Div on a page. I use JQuery to clone that Div and try to use it multiple times on the page. But JQuery Clone command doesn't seem to work on RadEditor. The new RadEditor object does not render correctly.

I wanted to know, if the RadEditor supports JQuery. And if it does, then is there any sample which I can refer to.

If the radEditor does not support JQuery, then is there any way to add new RadEditors on the page using javascript.

Thanks

Saurabh.

Hi Saurabh,

We are targeting the ASP.NET platform and RadEditor is an ASP.NET AJAX control, which depends on server-side creation. It is not possible to dynamically create RadEditor client-side, because the editor depends on a number of resources like links, colors, etc which are configured on the server as well as the editor's scripts are embedded in the Telerik.Web.UI.dll.
When the cloneNode(true);  is executed then only the editor's HTML is cloned but not the editor's object and for that reason the editor is not editable and it cannot be made editable.

For that reason our recommendation is to choose another approach to multiple the editor on the server.

Kind regards,

Hi,

My idea is to create multiple editors dynamically. You can see an example how to create a new editor from the server in the following forum thread: http://www.telerik.com/community/forums/aspnet-ajax/editor/radeditor-exception-multiple-controls-with-the-same-id-page-were-found.aspx
