[Solved] Menu will not load page in specified Target Frame

[Brad]

I am trying to have a RadMenu navigate to a specific page in a specific "frame". Now the frame can be an IFrame or a RadPane, I'm not picky, just needs to work. Is there something obvious here that's preventing it from working?

What's happening is the page is being loaded into a new window.

I am using version 2009.2.821.35


<table width="100%" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" border="0">
<

 

tr>

 

 

 

 

    <td></td>

 

 

 

 

    <td>

 

 

 

 

        <

 

telerik:RadMenu ID="RadMenu1" runat="server" Skin="Black" Width="1000px" OnItemClick="RadMenu1_ItemClick">

 

 

 

        <Items>

 

 

 

            <telerik:RadMenuItem runat="server" NavigateUrl="home.aspx" Text="Home" Target="Main">

 

 

 

            </telerik:RadMenuItem>

 

 

 

            <telerik:RadMenuItem runat="server" NavigateUrl="Portfolio.aspx" Text="Portfolio" Target="Main">

 

 

 

            </telerik:RadMenuItem>
        </Items>

 

 

         </

 

telerik:RadMenu>
    </td>
</tr>
 <tr>

 

 

 

 

 

    <td></td>

 

 

 

 

    <td>

 

 

    

 

<iframe id="Main" runat="server" src="Home.aspx" ></iframe>

 

 

 

 

    </td>

 

 

 

 

</tr>
</table>

Thanks,

Hi Brad,

In order to achieve your goal, you should target the iframe by its name. If it's a RadPane your can target it by its ID then.Please find below your modified code snippet that shows the needed approach.

<form id="form1" runat="server">
    <telerik:RadScriptManager ID="RadScriptManager1" runat="server">
    </telerik:RadScriptManager>
    <table width="100%" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" border="0">
        <tr>
            <td>
            </td>
            <td>
                <telerik:RadMenu ID="RadMenu1" runat="server" Skin="Black" Width="1000px" _OnItemClick="RadMenu1_ItemClick">
                    <Items>
                        <telerik:RadMenuItem runat="server" NavigateUrl="home.aspx" Text="Home" Target="Main">
                        </telerik:RadMenuItem>
                        <telerik:RadMenuItem runat="server" NavigateUrl="Portfolio.aspx" Text="Portfolio"
                            Target="Main">
                        </telerik:RadMenuItem>
                    </Items>
                </telerik:RadMenu>
            </td>
        </tr>
        <tr>
            <td>
            </td>
            <td>
                <iframe name="Main" runat="server" src="Home.aspx"></iframe>
            </td>
        </tr>
    </table>
    </form>
