Hi Steve,

If you handle the client-side event OnClientClicking you can keep the button look without having to change the ButtonType property to LinkButton. In the event handler you must open with Javascript the URL, specified in the NavigateUrl property and after that you should cancel the event and postback.

Below is a sample, showing how to achieve this:

<%@ Page Language="C#" AutoEventWireup="true" CodeFile="ButtonRedirect.aspx.cs" Inherits="ButtonRedirect" %>

<%@ Register Assembly="Telerik.Web.UI" Namespace="Telerik.Web.UI" TagPrefix="telerik" %>

<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">

<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">

<head runat="server">

<title></title>

</head>

<body>

<form id="form1" runat="server">

<div>

<asp:ScriptManager ID="ScriptManager1" runat="server">

</asp:ScriptManager>

<script type="text/javascript">

function OnClientClicking(button, args) {

window.location = button.get_navigateUrl();

args.set_cancel(true);

}

</script>

<telerik:RadButton ID="RadButton" runat="server" Text="RadButton" NavigateUrl="http://www.telerik.com/" OnClientClicking="OnClientClicking">

</telerik:RadButton>

</div>

</form>

</body>

</html>
