[Solved] Menu expanded from another element

[Scott]

How would I go about having a RadMenu expand when a user mouses over another control (ex: LinkButton)?

Hi Scott,

Have a look at the code which demostrates how to open menu item on mouseover of LinkButton.

ASPX:

<telerik:RadMenu ID="RadMenu1" runat="server">
    <Items>
        <telerik:RadMenuItem runat="server" Text="Root RadMenuItem1">
            <Items>
                <telerik:RadMenuItem runat="server" Text="Child RadMenuItem 1">
                </telerik:RadMenuItem>
                <telerik:RadMenuItem runat="server" Text="Child RadMenuItem 2">
                </telerik:RadMenuItem>
            </Items>
        </telerik:RadMenuItem>
         . . .
    </Items>
</telerik:RadMenu>
<asp:LinkButton ID="LinkButton1" runat="server" onmouseout="closeMenu();" onmouseover="openMenu();">LinkButton</asp:LinkButton>

JavaScript:

<script type="text/javascript">
function openMenu()
{
    var menu = $find("<%= RadMenu1.ClientID %>");
    var menumenuItem = menu.findItemByText("Root RadMenuItem1");
    menuItem.open();  // Expend the menu item
}
function closeMenu()
{
    var menu = $find("<%= RadMenu1.ClientID %>");
    var menumenuItem = menu.findItemByText("Root RadMenuItem1");
    menuItem.close();
}
</script>
