OnClientRating & Ratting Zero

[Mohammad Hajinezhad]

Hi everyone

I have two issue with RadRatting, I hope someone could help me.

1- I don't know have could get value of RadRatting for validation on "OnClientRating" event, sender.get_value() just give me Old-Value, Not Current-value !!!!!!

2- I don't know have rat 0, when ratted some value, for Example when I Rate 5 star, I can't change value to 0 star (I prefer do this, whit user click, Not with programming).

3- It is possible that force end-users to just ratting between two values (for examples ratting between 3-8) ?!!!!!!!!

Best Regards,
M.Hajinezhad.

Hi Mohammad Hajinezhad,
Straight to your questions:

1. The rating client-side event of the rating control is raised before the value of the control changes. That is why, get_value returns the old value - it is actually the current value of the control. You can obtain the pending value the following way:

   <telerik:RadRating ID="RadRating1" runat="server" OnClientRating="OnClientRating">
   </telerik:RadRating>
   <script type="text/javascript">
   function OnClientRating(sender, args)
   {
       alert(args.get_newValue());
   }
   </script>

2. I am not quite sure how you want to implement this. In case you want a separate button that resets the value of the rating control to 0, you can simply define a button, style it per your specification and use its click client-side event to set the value of the rating control to 0:

   <telerik:RadRating ID="RadRating1" runat="server">
   </telerik:RadRating>
   <asp:Button ID="Button1" runat="server" OnClientClick="OnClientClick(); return false;" />
   <script type="text/javascript">
   function OnClientClick()
   {
       $find("<%= RadRating1.ClientID %>").set_value(0);
   }
   </script>

   . On the other hand, in case you want the first item in the rating to have value=0, you can use the Items collection of the control - http://demos.telerik.com/aspnet-ajax/rating/examples/itemscollection/defaultcs.aspx.
3. Yes, you can - you can use the Items collection of the rating control and set the Value for each item - http://demos.telerik.com/aspnet-ajax/rating/examples/itemscollection/defaultcs.aspx.
