I have an ASP.NET 2.0 web application that was using RadAjaxManager and RadComboBox from Q3 2007. I recently upgraded those controls to the Q3 2008 version. The only code I had to change was with the Ajax components, which is why I put most post here and not in the combobox forum. I think my problem is an interaction with the updated Ajax components.

My problem is with a few RadComboBoxes. I had developed them as multi-select containing checkboxes. After the upgrade, the checkboxes appear, but the text of the checkbox item does not.

Here is the relavent page code and javascript that is attached to the RadComboBoxes. Thanks.

 

<script type="text/javascript">

 

 

function stopPropagation(e)

 

{

e.cancelBubble =

true;

 

 

 

if (e.stopPropagation)

 

{

e.stopPropagation();

}

}

 

var supressDropDownClosing = false;

 

 

 

function OnClientDropDownClosing(sender, eventArgs)

 

{

eventArgs.set_cancel(supressDropDownClosing);

}

 

 

function OnClientSelectedIndexChanging(sender, eventArgs)

 

{

eventArgs.set_cancel(supressDropDownClosing);

}

 

 

function OnClientDropDownOpening(sender, eventArgs)

 

{

supressDropDownClosing =

true;

 

}

 

 

function OnClientBlur(sender)

 

{

supressDropDownClosing =

false;

 

 

sender.toggleDropDown();

}

 

 

function checkboxClick()

 

{

collectSelectedItems();

}

 

 

function getItemCheckBox(item)

 

{

 

//Get the 'div' representing the current RadComboBox Item.

 

 

var itemDiv = item.get_element();

 

 

 

//Get the collection of all 'input' elements in the 'div' (which are contained in the Item).

 

 

var inputs = itemDiv.getElementsByTagName("input");

 

 

 

for (var inputIndex = 0; inputIndex < inputs.length; inputIndex++)

 

{

 

var input = inputs[inputIndex];

 

 

 

//Check the type of the current 'input' element.

 

 

if (input.type == "checkbox")

 

{

 

return input;

 

}

}

 

 

return null;

 

}

 

 

function collectSelectedItems()

 

{

 

var combo = $find("<%# ddlRace.ClientID %>");

 

 

var items = combo.get_items();

 

 

 

var selectedItemsTexts = "";

 

 

var selectedItemsValues = "";

 

 

 

var itemsCount = items.get_count();

 

 

 

for (var itemIndex = 0; itemIndex < itemsCount; itemIndex++)

 

{

 

var item = items.getItem(itemIndex);

 

 

 

var checkbox = getItemCheckBox(item);

 

 

 

//Check whether the Item's CheckBox) is checked.

 

 

if (checkbox.checked)

 

{

selectedItemsTexts += item.get_text() +

", ";

 

selectedItemsValues += item.get_value() +

", ";

 

}

}

selectedItemsTexts = selectedItemsTexts.substring(0, selectedItemsTexts.length - 2);

selectedItemsValues = selectedItemsValues.substring(0, selectedItemsValues.length - 2);

 

 

//Set the text of the RadComboBox with the texts of the selected Items, separated by ','.

 

combo.set_text(selectedItemsTexts);

 

//Set the comboValue hidden field value with values of the selected Items, separated by ','.

 

document.getElementById(

"comboValue").value = selectedItemsValues;

 

 

 

//Clear the selection that RadComboBox has made internally.

 

 

if (selectedItemsValues == "")

 

{

combo.clearSelection();

}

}

Hi,

Your code looks fine to me. However, you can try migrating the code used in the RequestStart and ResponseEnd client-side events of the manager, as the methods you used are obsolete (use this link for a reference).

Also, can you tell if the page works fine if you disable ajax, e.g. set EnableAjax property to false?

Thanks for the reply. I looked at the link, but I couldn't figure out what was obsolete with that javascript. So I just commented it out and commented out the corresponding ClientEvents section in the AjaxManager. I tested with EnableAjax=false and I get the same results. The comboboxes display the checkboxes, but not the text of the checkbox item. It appears my problem has nothing to do with the Ajax component, but rather the combobox component. I'll post there. Thanks.

Hello Joe,

Call the DataBind() method of the combobox in Page_Load event.
