Hi all,
Can anyone tell me why the following javascript is not working?
document.body.onload = function() {
var txtDOB = document.getElementById("<%= txtDOB.ClientID %>");
txtDOB.set_maxDate(new Date('2009/04/15'));
}
The error I get is "Object doesn't support the property or method" on the set_maxDate line.
My aspx markup is
<telerik:RadDateInput ID="txtDOB" runat="server" DateFormat="dd/MM/yyyy">
</telerik:RadDateInput>
I am using Telerik Q2 2009 (2009.2.826.35)
Thanks

Hello Andrew,
In order to access the client object you should use the $find shortcut method:
ASP.NET AJAX > Client Reference > Global Namespace > $find ...

FYI I have also tried this in my markup
<ClientEvents OnFocus="SetMaxDate()" />
and then placed above code in a SetMaxDate() function but still txtDOB is null

Hello Andrew,
I updated my code-snippet to use the findControl (part of our static client-side library) method. Also you can find below a modified version of the "OnFocus" approach:
Telerik static client library
OnFocus approach:
pageLoad approach:
I hope this helps.
