Hi all,

I need, if possibile, an example of how to add an "OK" button inside a notification to close it (instead of using the X on the top right corner).

I'm playing around with it, but it doesn't work.

Thank you.

Hi,

Try the following code to achieve your scenario. 

ASPX:
<telerik:RadNotification ID="RadNotification1" runat="server" Title="Sample Title" Text="Simple text content" VisibleOnPageLoad="true" AutoCloseDelay="0" ShowCloseButton="false" >
      <ContentTemplate>
            <telerik:RadButton ID="btnOk" runat="server" AutoPostBack="false" Text="OK" OnClientClicked="OnClientClicked" ></telerik:RadButton>
      </ContentTemplate>
</telerik:RadNotification>

JS:
<script type="text/javascript" >
    function OnClientClicked(sender, args)
      {
         var notification = $find("<%=RadNotification1.ClientID %>");
         notification._close(true);
      }
</script>

Hope this helps.

Thanks,
Shinu.

Hi this works for me but is there a way to do this without the javascript? I want the button in the notification to not post back and just close the notification. Just setting  AutoPostBack="false" on the button does not help

Thanks

Hello,

If you do not want the button to postback you need to write some JavaScript to execute the desired logic. If neither a JavaScript function is called, nor a postback is initiated there isn't a way for a button to provide any interaction.

The correct way to close the notification would be through its hide() method, too.

Also, the control offers a [x] button in its titlbar that can be used to close it. It can be enabled through the ShowCloseButton property.

Hi,

When I tried the coded provided, after adding the <ContentTemplate> I am loosing all the Text set on the RadNotification.
Here is my code:

<telerik:RadNotification ID="ErrorMessage" runat="server" Text="User groups are limited to 500 users." Position="Center" AutoCloseDelay="0" Width="200" Title="Error" ContentIcon="/MedManager/images/Dialogs/error_sm.png">
<ContentTemplate>
<telerik:RadButton ID="btnOk" runat="server" AutoPostBack="false" Text="OK" OnClientClicked="OnClientClicked"></telerik:RadButton>
</ContentTemplate>
</telerik:RadNotification>


function OnClientClicked(sender, args) {

var notification = $find("<%=ErrorMessage.ClientID %>");

notification._close(true);

}


Thank you

Hello Diego,

I have answered your support ticket on the matter and I am pasting my response here for anyone else having the same question:

 


This behavior is expected. The built-in text and content icon are available in the simplest scenario. If the developer wants to have a custom layout in the control, the ContentTemplate provides freedom do to that without built-in styles. You can see that here: http://demos.telerik.com/aspnet-ajax/notification/examples/settingcontent/defaultcs.aspx .

What I can suggest are the following approaches:

  • use the built-in close button on the titlebar of the notification, if possible. It is visible by default and will not require the use of a ContentTemplate.
  • OR, add a literal or label where you can set the desired text. It seems you have your custom icon for the ContentIcon so you can use a simple image element for it. Anyway, If you want to have an icon from the built-in ones, you have two options:  

On a side note - the recommended way to close the notification is by calling its hide() method and not the "private" _close() method: http://www.telerik.com/help/aspnet-ajax/notification-client-side.html
