I trying to figure out how to pass the name of a wave file that is displayed into the file explorer. So when the user double clicks on the file name, it plays in a media player that is next to the file explorer (see attached screen shot).

Currently if you double click the file name a window opens and the wave file starts playing. That doesn't work to well as if you close the window the calls keeps playing.

I need to pass the JavaScript var "name" to
<param name="URL" value=""  />
in the Windows Media Player control and not have the file explorer default to
popping up a window and using the user's default media player.

Any suggestions????

Thanks,
Joe

Here's the code I have got so far...

<asp:Content ID="Content2" ContentPlaceHolderID="ContentPlaceHolder1" Runat="Server">
    <telerik:RadScriptManager ID="RadScriptManager1" Runat="server">
    </telerik:RadScriptManager>
    <br />
     <table cellspacing="4">
        <tr>
            <td rowspan="2" style="vertical-align: top;">
                Browse to an image and click to preview.
                <telerik:RadFileExplorer ID="RadFileExplorer1" Runat="server" Configuration-MaxUploadFileSize="104857600" Width="500px">
                    <Configuration SearchPatterns="*.*"></Configuration>
                </telerik:RadFileExplorer>
            </td>
            <td style="vertical-align: top">
            <br />
                <fieldset style="width: 270px; height: 85px">

                      function OnClientFileOpen(oExplorer, args) {
                          var item = args.get_item();
 
                          //check if the opened item is a file
                          //if the item does not have extension it is a directory
                          //you can add additional check if the file has specific extension
                          if (item.get_extension()) {
                              args.set_cancel(true); //cancel the default execution
 
                              var name = item.get_name(); //you can use get_path() method to get full path to the item
                              alert(name);
                               
                              //execute the custom function changing the video in the MediaPlayer control
                          }

Hi Joe,

Try to modify the function OnClientFileOpen as follows:
<script type="text/javascript">
    function OnClientFileOpen(oExplorer, args) {
        var item = args.get_item();
 
        //check if the opened item is a file
        //if the item does not have extension it is a directory
        //you can add additional check if the file has specific extension
        if (item.get_extension()) {
            //cancel the default execution
 
            var path = item.get_path(); //you can use get_path() method to get full path to the item
            alert(path);
 
            var mediaPlayer = $get("MediaPlayer1");
            mediaPlayer.URL = path;
 
        }
        args.set_cancel(true);
 
    }
</script>

This works on my end.

Kind regards,
