Node Click event to open radwindow?

[Paul J]

I've accomplished having a Menu Item open a radWindow for the Menu control by setting the NavigateUrl attribute to empty string for those items I want to open the radWindow (as instructed by telerik support/forums -- only items with no NavigateUrl run the ItemClick event). I can obviously set the Node's NavigateUrl attribute to empty string as well on NodeDataBound event, but the SiteMap control does not provide an ItemClick/NodeClick event.

What's the best method for accomplishing this until you guys implement an similar Click event for the SiteMap control?

Thanks...

Hello Paul J,

You need server-side Click event, is that the case?  I'm asking, because opening windows is usually made on the client.

Yes, I was referring to server side, as the forum posts I followed to get the radWindow to open on a menu item Click used the menu ItemClick server side event to set the radwindow's VisibleOnPageLoad to true. I was hoping to go the same route for the sitemap node, just to keep things consistent.

I suppose you're going to end up telling to just open it client side? If you can't provide a server side method, please then do show a client side version, or rather, what client side event of the sitemap node do I attached the call to open the radwindow?

Hi Paul,

We are sorry for the late reply. Please find attached how to achieve this client -side by using jQuery.

Hope this helps.
