RadAjaxManager & JavaScript - need help

[Brian Garson]

Hello,

Maybe just having a bad day, but I can't figure out what I've done wrong.  When I introduced the RadAjaxManager to my page, one of my Javascript functions executes, does not throw any errors, but does not update the document.  If I remove the RadAjaxManager my Javascript executes properly.  The function called is previewStyle, and is called by this button: <asp:Button ID="previewCSS" runat="server" Text="Preview" OnClientClick="previewStyle(); return false;" />

<telerik:RadScriptManager ID="RadScriptManager1" runat="server">
    </telerik:RadScriptManager>
    <telerik:RadAjaxManager runat="server">
        <ajaxsettings>
            <telerik:AjaxSetting AjaxControlID="rgCampaignThemes">
                <UpdatedControls>
                    <telerik:AjaxUpdatedControl ControlID="rgCampaignThemes" LoadingPanelID="radAjaxLoadingPanel1" UpdatePanelHeight="" />
                    <telerik:AjaxUpdatedControl ControlID="editorCSS" LoadingPanelID="radAjaxLoadingPanel1" />
                </UpdatedControls>

            </telerik:AjaxSetting>
        </ajaxsettings>
    </telerik:RadAjaxManager>

    <telerik:RadScriptBlock ID="radScriptBlock1" runat="server">

        <script src="../Scripts/jquery-1.5.js" type="text/javascript"></script>

        <script type="text/javascript" language="javascript">


    function previewStyle(){
        try{
        var editor = $find("<%=editorCSS.ClientID%>");
       //$('style[type="text/css"]').text(editor.get_html());
       var newStyleSheet = '<style type="text/css">' + editor.get_html() + '</style>';
       var filterVar = $('style[type="text/css"]');
       filterVar.replaceWith(newStyleSheet);
       }
       catch(e){
       alert(e);
       }
       }

Hello Brian,

Could it be some sort of conflict with the $ object? Have you tried using $telerik.$ and seeing if that resolves the issue?
