Problem in displaying EmtyText while clicking the comboboxitem when it is dynamically created

[jeevitha]

Hi,

I am creating a combobox in codebehind dynamically with checkbox template. I am inserting "Select" as a selected item. When i am clicking the CheckBox of the item I called the CheckboxOnclick event. But When i am clicking the Item text the "Select" text which i had as selected item changes to the item text which i clicked. Actually that should not happen. The select text should be the same. How to over come this problem and is there any way  to prevent ItemClick event dynamically. I have given EmptyText also dynamically which is not worked. Pls help me out to sort this problem. I tried OnItemRequested it is also not working.

Thanks,
Jeevitha

Hello jeevitha,

Try using these two steps to set an EmptyMessage to your RadComboBox:

1. Set AllowCustomText="true" and some text to the EmptyMessage property. For example EmptyMessage="Select ..."
2. use this Javascript function:

function onLoad(sender) {
                sender.get_inputDomElement().readOnly = "readonly";
            }

You may find the full code in the attached .zip file.

Hope this helps.
