Rad ribbonbar menu-Hacking is possible or not

[Abhilash]

Hello All,
I have a rad ribbon bar having Application menu. Some of the menu items are disabled on page load(in client side). We can change the disabled menu to an enabled one in client side using fire bugger (remove rmDisabled from class="rmLink rmDisabled rmDisabled").My question is - Is there any possible way to enable a menu item which is actually in disabled mode and perform its server action.

Thank you
Abhilash

Hello,

You have full access to the ApplicationMenus client object, which allows you to enable or disable every item. Here's some sample code showing how you can do this:

function pageLoad() {
    var ribbonbar = $find("RadRibbonBar1"),
        applicationMenu = ribbonbar.get_applicationMenuDropDown(),
        item = applicationMenu.get_items().getItem(0);

    item.set_enabled(false);
}

Thank you Bozhidar ,
You have miss understood me.Actually I have not asked how to enable or disable a menu item. My question is- I have a menu item "Save". That is in disabled state.After rendering in browser, we can edit its css and make it enabled. So once it enabled, can I perform Save functionality.

Thank you

Hello Abhilash,

Changing the css alone would not re-enable the item. You have to call the set_enabled(true) method of its client object, as I demonstrated in my previous reply.
