Press Enter in RadTextBox fires a specific RadButton in a RadAjaxPanle

[Emmanuel]

Hello,

 

We have a RadAjaxPanel with a RadTextBox and a RadButton in it.

How is it possible to fire the RadButton server side event click and press enter in the RadTextBox ?

 

Thank you for your help.

Sincerely.

Hi Emmanuel,

If you want to trigger the server-side click when the Enter button is pressed, you can do it with a similar logic:

        <telerik:RadCodeBlock runat="server">
            <script>
                function onKeyPress(textBox, args) {
                    if (args.get_keyCode() == 13) {
                        $find("<%=RadButton1.ClientID%>").click();
                }
            }
            </script>
        </telerik:RadCodeBlock>
        <telerik:RadAjaxPanel ID="RadAjaxPanel1" runat="server">
            <telerik:RadTextBox ID="RadTextBox1" runat="server">
                <ClientEvents OnKeyPress="onKeyPress" />
            </telerik:RadTextBox>
            <telerik:RadButton ID="RadButton1" runat="server" Text="Submit" AutoPostBack="true" OnClick="RadButton1_Click"></telerik:RadButton>
            <br />
            <telerik:RadLabel ID="labelFilledFromServer" runat="server"></telerik:RadLabel>
        </telerik:RadAjaxPanel>

    protected void RadButton1_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
    {
        labelFilledFromServer.Text = RadTextBox1.Text;
    }

Hello,

 

Thank you very much for your reply.

But this is not completely working.

The server side event is fired but the rest of the RadAjaxPanel is not updated and loading panel never disapears.

 

Do you have any idea ?

Thank you

Hi Emmanuel,

Such behvaior can be faced if there are other AJAxPanels on the page, the result of which is cancelled AJAX reques. Can you confirm that this is not the case at your end and there are no any nesetd AJAX panels on the page?

For convenience, I am attaching my test page to this reply so you can examine it at your end.

Hello again,

Yes I confirm that there is no other AJAX Panel on the page (nested or not).

It occurs in a Sitefinity widget (ascx) in which we a Radajaxpanel wrapping a RadListView, a RadTextBox and a RadButton.

We also have a RadAjaxLoadingPanel connected to the RadAjaxPanel.

 

Nothing more....

No javascript error when occurs....

Hi Emmanuel,

Thank you for the additional details. As AJAX is often known to hide both client- and server-side errors, can you remove the used AjaxPanel temporary and see if there are still no errors thrown on the page?
