[Solved] Moving the recurrence panel

[Stuart Hemming]

I'm putting an Advance Form together and need to put the recurrence panel on a new tab (the form already has a tabstrip).

Am I right in thinking that the visibility of the recurrence panel and the magic that takes place when you select the various options is all hidden in the AdvancedForm.js file?

How badly will I have to break the existing code to get the recurrence tab to work? Will I be able to get it to work at all?

Hello Stuart,

If you intend to keep the recurrence controls on the same advanced insert/edit form, then visually changing it to be under a tab control should not affect its functionality. Let us know if you experience any problems in particular.

All the best,

Peter,

I know I'm going to have to take some time out and learn how to use jQuery, but I'd really appreciate a pointer in the right direction with this.

I want to modify AdvancedForm.js so that when the 'recurrence' checkbox is checked a tab on the tabstrip is hidden/shown as appropriate. I know where to put the code and I know what I want to put in, but I'm struggling. Normally, I'd write something like

var ts = $find("<%= TabStrip.ClientID %>");
ts.findTabByText("Recurrence").set_visible(...

But I can't do this 'cos its not an ASP page.

How do I find a telerik object in this code?

I've used ...

var ts = $("#" + this._template + "_AdvTabStrip");

and whilst this does find something sadly, it's not a seen as a TabStrip object.

Help! Please!

Ha!

Sorted it.

var ts = $find(this._templateId + "_AdvTabStrip");

Now we're cooking.
