Loading Nodes using Webservice - Context?

[Amar]

Hi,

I am using a WebMethod to return RadTreeNodeData and the tree gets populated fine on demand. I have a requirement to pass more information to the web method when the treenode is expanded. Can someone please point me in the right direction so i may know how to pass additional information in the context parameter in the webmethod.

public RadTreeNodeData[] GetDirectoryNodes(RadTreeNodeData node, object context)

I searched on the forum and in the documentation but have not found any examples.

Thanks

Amar

After spending a lot of time going through the source code of RadTreeView I managed to find out how to this. The OnClientNodePopulating event needs to be handlled.

OnClientNodePopulating="ClientNodePopulating"

Then

    function ClientNodePopulating(sender, eventArgs) {
        var data = eventArgs.get_context();
        data["testItem"] = "hello";
    }
