[Solved] RadAjaxManager.GetCurrent(Page) inside .JS file

[Taiseer]

Dear all,

I have a user control with (RadAjaxProxyManager) and the (RadAjaxManager) on the ASP.NET page where the user control lives 

I need to put the below JS function isnide .JS file not on the page directly. I want to get rid of the RadCodeBlock tag as well I'm combining JS in files. I dont want to have inline JS functions on ASP.NET pages.

<rad:RadCodeBlock ID="RadCodeBlock1" runat="server">
<script type="text/javascript">
 function refreshAttachmentGrid(arg) {
$find("<%= RadAjaxManager.GetCurrent(Page).ClientID %>").ajaxRequest("RefreshAttachment");
}
</script>
</rad:RadCodeBlock>

The code works fine, all I need is to move it to JS file.

Thanks in advance.

Hello Taiseer,

Server expressions are not resolved when they are placed outside of the ASPX page. So if you place them in external JS file you will end up with a string representation of the statement instead of an object.

One workaround for this is to use global variable in which to store the object returned by the statement. Then in your external file to use the $find() function and to pass the global variable as a parameter to this method.

If you do not want any JavaScript code in your ASPX page, you could assign value to this variable in code-behind by using ScriptManager, RegisterClientScripts method.


All the best,
