pop-up menu and source element

[Joey]

How do I get the client ID of the element the menu was right clicked on inside of the OnClientItemClicked event handler?

sender.EventSource doesn't work and DomElement gives me back the object of the menu itself. I need the dom object of the item that was directly under the mouse when the user right clicks to show the pop-up menu.

Hi Joey,

Here is an example how to do this:

<script type="text/javascript">
function OnClientItemClickedHandler(sender, eventArgs)
{
    alert(eventArgs.get_targetElement().id);
}
</script>
<telerik:RadContextMenu ID="RadContextMenu1" OnClientItemClicked="OnClientItemClickedHandler" runat="server">
    <CollapseAnimation Duration="200" Type="OutQuint" />
    <Items>
        <telerik:RadMenuItem runat="server" Text="Root RadMenuItem1">
        </telerik:RadMenuItem>
        <telerik:RadMenuItem runat="server" Text="Root RadMenuItem2">
        </telerik:RadMenuItem>
    </Items>
    <Targets>
        <telerik:ContextMenuControlTarget ControlID="Label1" />
        <telerik:ContextMenuControlTarget ControlID="Label2" />
    </Targets>
</telerik:RadContextMenu>
<asp:Label ID="Label1" runat="server" Text="Label"></asp:Label>
<asp:Label ID="Label2" runat="server" Text="Label"></asp:Label>

Please, try it and let us know if you have further questions.
