radconfirm, blockConfirm and AJAX?

[Rob Heckart]

I'm using a RadAjaxManager control on a page and have wired it up to several Buttons. An example button is:

<asp:Button ID="btnSubmitChanges" runat="server" Text="Submit Changes, New Term and/or Comments" OnClick="SubmitChanges" OnClientClick="return blockConfirm('<p><strong><u>WARNING!</u></strong></p><p>More text</p>', event, 650, 200,'','Submit Changes');" Width="300px" />

I'm using the blockConfirm function with the button. I noticed (too late) that there's a line of code in there that seems to get rid of my OnClick argument (callerObj["onclick"] = "").

The question is how to make the RadConfirm work in this instance. Do I have to break the SubmitChanges code out into a Button click handler?

Also, is it possible to remove the question mark icon?

Hello Rob,

This should not be a problem, however to be able to help, I need to have a better view over your exact setup and logic. Please open a support ticket and send me a sample page that shows the problem and I will check it.

By the way, since you are using RadAjaxManager, you could use ajaxRequestWithTarget for that purpose - then you will not need to change the radconfirm functionality. For your convenience I attached a small sample that shows that approach in action.

I downloaded the small demo and made my code look the same way yours does. But it doesn't update my web form afterwards. I was already using ramTermWorkPage_AjaxRequest to update another part of the UI. In my Ajax Manager, I have:

<telerik:AjaxSetting AjaxControlID="btnSubmitChanges">
                <UpdatedControls>
                    <telerik:AjaxUpdatedControl ControlID="grdReviewed" />
                    <telerik:AjaxUpdatedControl ControlID="grdNotReviewed" />
                    <telerik:AjaxUpdatedControl ControlID="grdSavedDrafts" />
                    <telerik:AjaxUpdatedControl ControlID="pnlDetails" LoadingPanelID="alpLoading" />
                    <telerik:AjaxUpdatedControl ControlID="tabAlpha" />
                    <telerik:AjaxUpdatedControl ControlID="grdAllTerms" />
                    <telerik:AjaxUpdatedControl ControlID="mnuAddTerm" />
                    <telerik:AjaxUpdatedControl ControlID="rptMyReviewedTerms" />
                </UpdatedControls>
            </telerik:AjaxSetting>

My button code looks like this:

<asp:Button ID="btnSubmitChanges" runat="server" Text="Submit Changes, New Term and/or Comments"
OnClientClick="confirmSubmit(this);return false;" Width="300px" OnClick="SubmitChanges" />

When I click the button, I get the radconfirm dialog, code behind AjaxRequest event fires, no controls shown in UpdatedControls update and the SubmitChanges code never fires. I have specific code to update the UI grids, panels, etc. That code is firing code-behind, no update on the web page.

Private Sub ramTermWorkPage_AjaxRequest(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As Telerik.Web.UI.AjaxRequestEventArgs) Handles ramTermWorkPage.AjaxRequest

        If Not e.Argument.Contains("btnSubmitChanges") Then

            Dim txtSearch = e.Argument

            tabAlpha.SelectedIndex = -1

            If String.IsNullOrEmpty(txtSearch) Then
                grdAllTerms.MasterTableView.Controls(0).Controls.Clear()
                Exit Sub
            End If

            Dim dtAllTerms As DataTable = FilterAllTerms(txtSearch)

            If dtAllTerms.Rows.Count > 0 Then
                grdAllTerms.DataSource = dtAllTerms
                grdAllTerms.DataBind()
            Else
                grdAllTerms.MasterTableView.Controls(0).Controls.Clear()
            End If
        End If


    End Sub

If I change the AjaxRequest to fire SubmitChanges, the data gets written to the database but again, no UI gets updated even though I'm specifically calling it to. If I can get the UI to update, I'll be good.

Hello Rob,

Please open a support ticket and send us full, working project where this issue could be reproduced. I am afraid that the provided information is not enough for us to determine what might be the reason for the problem and we need to have a better view over your exact case and logic.

hey
this code doesnt work.
i am surprised telerik doesnt have a solution for this.
this is my scenario

i have an aspx page that has a button
the button click opens another aspx page in a radwindow
the radwindow has a button that has a server side handler in code behind.
when this button is clicked
some server side code needs to execute(in the code behind)
in the server side code if a condition is yes then this Radwindow has to open a radconfirm
based on the user reponse on the radconfirm
if Yes-Execute some server side code again
If No-dont do anything

to summarise

its a radconfirm in a radwindow and it needs to be invoked from code behind and the user response needs to be captured in code  behind and execute server side code based on the user response.

i have gone thru 100's of forums for this issue but it amazes me that telerik does not have a neat and clean solution for this.

Any help from shinu is greatly appreciated

thanks
