OnClientDateChanged is obsolete use OnValueChanged instead

[Nate Pinchot]

Hi,
According to the documentation this is correct:

Event	Applies to	Description
OnValueChanged	all RadInput controls	Occurs after a new value has been assigned when the control loses focus.

However, using this code:

<telerik:RadDatePicker ID="createDateStart" OnSelectedDateChanged="filter_ValueChanged" runat="server" Width="104px" AutoPostBack="True" Skin="Office2007">
    <ClientEvents OnValueChanged="date_ClientDateChanged" />
</telerik:RadDatePicker>

I get the following error:

Parser Error Message: Type 'Telerik.Web.UI.Calendar.DatePickerClientEvents' does not have a public property named 'OnValueChanged'.

The intellisense shows me a property called OnDateSelected but I don't see any documentation for this? So I'm not entirely sure.
What would be the proper event to use instead of OnClientDateChanged?

You guys have a great product but I can't stress enough how much greater it would be if the documentation was better and more up-to-date :)

Thanks.

Hello Nate,

Thank you for the feedback.

OnValueChanged event belongs to RadInput (DateInput in this case) controls. Please examine the following example:

<telerik:RadDatePicker ID="RadDatePicker1" runat="server">
    <DateInput runat="server" ClientEvents-OnValueChanging="ValueChanging" />
</telerik:RadDatePicker>

More information about this matter is available in our documentation:
RadInput Overview
RadInput Client-Side Events
RadInput Client-Side Basics
Customizing the Embedded Controls

Alternatively you can use DateSelected event of RadDatePicker:

<telerik:RadDatePicker ID="RadDatePicker1" runat="server">
    <ClientEvents OnDateSelected="DateSelected" />
</telerik:RadDatePicker>

RadDatePicker Client-Side Events
RadDatePicker Client Object
RadDatePicker OnDateSelected

Hope this helps.
